For years, Iranian academics, writers, and scholars have equated national development and progress with the reform of men's sexual behavior. Modern intellectuals repudiated native sexuality in Iran, just as their European counterparts in France and Germany did, arguing that transforming male identity was essential to the recovery of the nation. DeSouza offers an alternate narrative of modern Iranian masculinity as an attempt to redraw social hierarchies among men. Moving beyond rigid portrayals of Islamic patriarchy and female oppression, she analyzes debates about manhood and maleness in early twentieth-century Iran, particularly around questions of race and sexuality. DeSouza presents the larger implications of Pahlavi hegemonic masculinity in creating racialized male subjects and "productive" sexualities. In addition, she explores a cross-pollination with Europe, identifying how the "East" shaped visions of European male identity.

"In diesem fiktiven Disputationsroman aus dem 6. Jahrhundert gibt sich ein anonymer byzantinischer Autor als Augenzeuge einer Religionskonferenz am persischen Konigshof aus. Nachdem eine Gruppe christlicher Bischöfe sich nacheinander gegen die Hellenen, den zoroastrischen Obermagier und zwei jüdische Rabbinen durchgesetzt hat, kommt es zu einer Spaltung unter den Juden Persiens. Der Held der Erzählung ist der hochgebildete Philosoph, oberste Leibwächter und Mitregent des persischen Königs Aphroditian, der als Schiedsrichter die Vereinbarkeit von hellenischer Kultur und Christentum propagiert, aber mit Kritik an den zerstrittenen Christen nicht spart und für einen friedlichen Ausgang des Treffens sorgt. In dieser Utopie einer gewaltfreien Auseinandersetzung der Religionen hat der wahrscheinlich christliche Autor seine Kritik an den religionspolitischen und kirchlichen Zuständen im Byzanz seiner Zeit literarisch verarbeitet. Diese Ausgabe bietet erstmals eine vollständige deutsche Ü̈bersetzung und Kommentierung des Werkes. In der ausführlichen Einleitung werden die offenen Forschungsfragen zu Datierung, Autorschaft und Intentionen diskutiert und die vielfa︡ltigen antiken Quellen sowie die reiche Rezeption in der byzantinischen und slavischen Welt erschlossen."-- "In this fictional 6th-century debate novel, an anonymous Byzantine author claims to be an eyewitness to a religious conference at the Persian royal court. After a group of Christian bishops has prevailed against the Hellenes, the Zoroastrian chief magician and two Jewish rabbis, there is a split among the Jews of Persia. The hero of the story is the highly educated philosopher, supreme bodyguard and co-regent of the Persian king Aphroditian, who as an arbitrator propagates the compatibility of Hellenic culture and Christianity, but does not save criticism of the disputed Christians and ensures a peaceful outcome of the meeting. In this utopia of a non-violent confrontation of religions, the probably Christian author has literarily processed his criticism of the religious and church conditions in the Byzantium of his time. For the first time, this edition offers a complete German translation and commentary on the work. In the detailed introduction, open research questions about dating, authorship and intentions are discussed and the diverse ancient sources and rich reception in the Byzantine and Slavic world are opened up." --Translated from back cover

In Making Mesopotamia: Geography and Empire in a Romano-Iranian Borderland , Hamish Cameron examines the representation of the Mesopotamian Borderland in the geographical writing of Strabo, Pliny the Elder, Claudius Ptolemy, the anonymous Expositio Totius Mundi, and Ammianus Marcellinus. This inter-imperial borderland between the Roman Empire and the Arsacid and Sasanid Empires provided fertile ground for Roman geographical writers to articulate their ideas about space, boundaries, and imperial power. By examining these geographical descriptions, Hamish Cameron shows how each author constructed an image of Mesopotamia in keeping with the goals and context of their own work, while collectively creating a vision of Mesopotamia as a borderland space of movement, inter-imperial tension, and global engagement.

"Die Arbeit geht dem religiösen Wandel im Iran unter den Ṣafaviden nach. Dabei wird nicht die Verkündung der Schia als offizieller Religion im Jahr 1501 in den Mittelpunkt gestellt. Vielmehr werden die Ṣafaviden kontextualisiert, der religiöse Wandel selbst anhand beteiligter Akteure, Auswirkungen auf religiöse Institutionen und Legitimation von Herrschaft sowie der Übersetzung in Architektur und Performanz von Ritualen nachgezeichnet."--Back cover.
