Abstract

e Ta’zié, en tant que spectacle religieux du monde islamique, met en scène le drame de Kerbélâ, survenu en 680 dans ce même désert, près de l’Irak actuel. Lors de cet événement avéré de l’histoire de l’Islam, l’Imâm Hussein, troisième Imân des Chi’ites, et ses partisans, cernés par la troupe des Omayyades, sont massacrés au dixième jour du Muharram (l’Achourâ). Lors de la cérémonie de deuil pour la commémoration du drame de Kerbélâ, les Iraniens jouent le Ta’zié. Les divers symboles et le langage spécifique utilisés nous indiquent comment ce théâtre reconstitue cet événement et rappelle (inspire) le sentiment de respect du martyre de l'Imam Hossein.

Abstract

One of the most important current debates within and about Islam concerns its relation with power. Can Muslims be fundamentally content without power or as a minority? This book considers the voice of an important Muslim minority through its sermons. Indian Shi'i Muslims are a minority within a minority, constituting about ten to fifteen percent of the population as a whole, but comprising of about fifteen million people. Ten sermons are presented entirely and many more are quoted in order to analyze the preaching tradition in full. This book is the first survey to present the Indian mourning

Abstract

Described by the distinguished theatre director Peter Brook as 'a very powerful form of theatre', the Ta'ziyeh is the Islamic drama of Iran. This work examines the evolution of the Ta'ziyeh, which involved elements drawn from Zoroastrianaism, Mithraism, mythology, folklore and traditional forms of Iranian entertainment. In its final form, most of its elements - plot, character, thought, spectacle and song - derive from the Shi'a branch of Islam. Its main plot concerns the suffering and death of Imam Hussein, grandson of the Prophet of Islam.
