The volume brings together scholarship on themes such as constitutional revolution historiography, national identity construction, and the role of historiographical craft. It also addresses cultural memory and late Qajar narratives, agency and subjectivity, and the influence of poets like Ferdowsi on national imagination. Additional chapters explore architectural historiography, gender and sexuality, Marxism and historical consciousness, and Islamist historiography after the revolution.","Touraj Atabaki is Professor of Social History of the Middle East and Central Asia at the University of Leiden and Senior Research Fellow at the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam.
