Abstract:
This thesis uncovers the presence of musical structures within Zoroastrian prayer performance and articulates the details of these structures and also the way in which they are manifested and are passed down through generations. Initial research included an amalgamation and examination of the few references to music in Zoroastrian prayer that there are to be found in existing literature. The bulk of the research involved travelling to different countries to make contemporary sound recordings of prayers and to conduct extensive interviews with priests. Archival recordings were also gathered as

Abstract:
This study develops a landscape design, which demonstrates how to change the microclimate in a historical public space (Towers of silence, in city of Yazd, designated as World Heritage Site, in the heart of Iran). The arid historic city of Yazd is getting hotter. The increasing temperatures make it more and more difficult to use the public space. Towers of silence inherited from Zoroastrianism are stone cylindrical structures located on top of the hills within infertile land located south east of the city of Yazd. This historic site brings visitors from around the world every year but th

Abstract:
This study of the concept of glory across four different religions begins with Christianity. There the term 'glory' translates Greek doxa, a word which, deriving from a root meaning 'to seem', denotes 'outward appearance', and has in secular Greek the basic meaning 'opinion'. The New Testament, however, not only omits this connotation but gives doxa an entirely new one (radiance, divine Presence). Given that symbols are rooted in the experiential well-springs of a people, why did the Christian experience not bring a totally new symbol to birth. The answer is two-fold: (a) Christians took the w

Abstract:
For centuries, fire has been a sacred symbol from the eastern cultures to western regions. As one of the four states of matter, fire represents the great essence in our daily lives as an energy source with its warmth, light and aura, kindling feelings of truth and spirituality within us. In his poetic verses, fire was venerated by Zoroaster who led mankind to believe that there is one supreme lord that we may follow; a being that can only be known by the quest for truth (Asha). For Zoroaster truth was symbolic with fire as it brought people together in prayer. With the passage of time fire bec

This study examines religions operating in the same culture, and in this case, judaism and zoroastrianism, and their influence on each other. In particular, focus is on zoroastrianism's image of the savior figure Mithra, and how this representation may have influenced the description of the Messiah in the Talmud. How are the two figures represented in the scriptures and what similarities can be identified? By a thorough content analysi

Les sources relatives à l’Iran de l’époque sassanide (3ème-7ème s. De notre ère) nous permettent d’étudier deux systèmes éducatifs distincts : le religieux et le profane. Le premier est axé sur l’institution zoroastrienne du hērbed, le « prêtre-enseignant » chargé de transmettre oralement la connaissance des textes sacrés (l’Avesta et son exégèse). Pendant la période charnière du règne de Khosrow Ier (531-579), la nature et les méthodes de cette instruction ont dû s’adapter aux contraintes imposées par le conservatisme d’une élite sacerdotale.

Bien qu’en majorité musulman chiite, l’Iran a des communautés d’ethnies et religions diverses, y compris les communautés juives, chrétiennes, zoroastriennes et bahá’ies. Ces groupes avaient une identité, différente des musulmans, qui se manifestait à plusieurs niveaux : au niveau local, ces minorités religieuses habitaient dans des quartiers particuliers, avaient des vêtements, des langues, des accents

En quoi la représentation des animaux dans la glyptique d’époque sassanide est-elle l’enregistrement d’un savoir zoologique ?

Abstract:
Based on a broad survey of the reception of Firdausī’s Shāhnāma in medieval times, this dissertation argues that Firdausī’s oeuvre was primarily perceived as a book of wisdom and advice for kings and courtly élites. The medieval reception of the Shāhnāma is clearly manifested in the comments of medieval authors about Firdausī and his work, and in their use of the Shāhnāma in the composition of their own works. The production of ikhtiyārāt-i Shāhnāmas (selections from the Shāhnāma) in medieval times and the remarkable attention of the authors of mirrors for princes to Firdausī’s opus are partic
