By focusing on an archive of plays of Persia staged between 1561 and 1696 in conversation with Shakespeare's works, European peace proposals, legislative acts of toleration, and global traditions of hospitality found in Zoroastrianism, Islam, and the Judeo-Christian traditions, this book pioneers an interdisciplinary methodology, introduces Persianate conceptual lenses for literary analysis of English literature, and constructs capacities to imagine multiple globalities existing in early modernity through a spectrum of imagined and lived experiences on stage and on the ground.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheiba Kian Kaufman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/25\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.62h x 5.88w x 0.76d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198966722","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45133415284873,"sku":"9780198966722","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_9e2137d4-cc4f-403b-9b07-6828982e1095.jpg?v=1767678146","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/persian-paradigms-in-early-modern-english-drama-hospitable-globalities-9780198966722","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
