She is celebrated in a plethora of publications every year in Iran and beyond. E'tesami is the only female poet who has remained part of the daily lives of people in her society for about a century. Her poetry appears in school curricula both before and after the Revolution of 1979. People use her poetry on social media, particularly in critical times. It is also used in public speeches by Ali Khamenei (r. 1989-present) the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic. This book engages with E'tesami in the transformational context of the early twentieth century in Iran to investigate the controversies around her identity as a popular female poet. It demonstrates that the reason for E'tesami's paradoxical popularity was not merely her gender, but the transgression of patriarchal Iranian-Muslim gender norms. 410 0$aIranian Studies Series 606 $aLiterary studies: general$2thema 606 $aSocial conditions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919811 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Feminist$2bisacsh 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / General$2bisacsh 606 $aHISTORY / Middle East / Iran$2bisacsh 607 $aIran$2fast 607 $aIran$xSocial conditions$y20th century 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aParvin E'tesami, Classical Persian Poetry, Persian debate poetry (mun.ara), transgression, Iranian-Muslim gender norms, patriarchy, socio-political criticism, mystic-didactic poetry, politics and poetry, mysticism. 615 7$aLiterary studies: general. 615 7$aSocial conditions. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Feminist. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / General. 615 7$aHISTORY / Middle East / Iran. 676 $a891/.5513 700 $aNoorian$b Zhinia$01765221 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910984624903321 996 $aParvin Etesami in the Literary and Religious Context of Twentieth-Century Iran$94332776 997 $aUNINA
