This history examines the complex origins of religious dissent in 19th century Qajar Iran (then known to Westerners as Persia), & how it provided a mood & attitude which led to far-reaching political dissent, culminating in the establishment of a new government in 1906. The author extracts social & political thought from theological treatises to show how a centuries-long tradition of reform in Shia thought helped pave the way for modern secular change. Of real importance not just to historians of Islam, but also of scholars & students of contemporary Iran.
