A critical study of how Iranian nationalism, itself largely
influenced by Orientalist scholarship first undertaken by the
European Orientalists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries,
has shaped modern conceptions of Iran and Iranian identity, as well
as narratives of Iranian history, leading to the adoption of a
broad nationalist construction of identity to suit Iranian
political and ideological circumstances. This book argues that such
a broad-brushed approach and the term "Iranian" could not have
applied to the large multiethnic, multilingual, and multicultural
populations in the vast territory of Iran over so many distinct
historical periods.
