Iran A Modern History – Audiobook Online

Iran is a history book by the author Abbas Amanat.
This modern Iranian history is not a survey in the conventional sense but an ambitious exploration of a nation’s story. It refers to people and institutions formed by currents that sometimes last for hundreds of years. The book deals with the history of Iran’s diverse societies and economy in the context of dynastic changes, revolutions, civil wars, foreign occupation, and the rise of the Islamic Republic.

Abbas Amanat combines chronological and thematic approaches, exploring events of lasting significance for modern Iran and the world. In the 20th century, he addressed the cultural and political debates of Iran.

Political history is the narrative engine, fueled by decades of research and learning by Amanat. He layered the book with discussions of literature, music, and art; ideology, religion; economic and social; and cultural identity and heritage.

This book is a great history of modern Iran. It is well-researched, well-documented, and well-written. When reading the book you will get the feeling that the author is witnessing the events firsthand. Years of hard work may have been spent researching and writing this book. Historians, journalists or non-fiction writers should not show bias in their writing, and Professor Amanat follows this principle. He tries to write history the way it happened.

The book is different from most history books about Iran. It covers political, social, artistic, economic and literary issues from Safavid times to the present. This book is not only a must-read for historians, but it is also an informative book, well worth reading for study, reference and research. The illustrations, references and notes are plentiful. The book deserves to be a history classic. It will also receive a literary or historical book award.
