Ferdowsi School of Persian Literature

Festschrifts & Memorial Volumes on Iranian Studies

Ruben S. Nikoghosyan

In my experience, one of the significant challenges facing students of Iranian studies, especially those new to exploring the rich landscape of Iranian academia, is the limited availability of online bibliographical resources.

 

I recall, as a student, how often I had to spend hours and days discovering new names, books, and papers. As enjoyable as those cherished moments were, it took me, and I am sure many others, an enormous amount of time to blindly fumble our way through past and current scholarship on Iranian history, languages, religions, literature, etc.

 

Even now, as an instructor of Classical and Middle Persian languages and literature, I often see my students unaware of the scholarship on the subjects of their studies and at times struggling to find relevant literature. This applies to both Western scholarship and, to a much higher degree, native Iranian scholarship.

 

In order to address this issue to a very limited degree (acknowledging the efforts of others in this regard), and to provide helpful materials for students in this field, I have decided to create a list of festschrifts and memorial volumes dedicated to scholars in this field, thus making it a little bit easier for at least some students to navigate this academic field.

 

The current list includes festschrifts and memorial volumes published in non-Persian languages, primarily including papers in English, German, and French.

 

In the near future, I hope to compile another list containing memorial volumes (yādnāme) in Persian, thus making the names and publications of Iranian scholars accessible to students of Iranian studies.

 

I would be immensely grateful to all the readers who suggest titles, especially if they can attach the PDFs of the respective books alongside the titles. Please send the suggestions to my email: nikoghosyanruben@gmail.com
