A Portrait of Houshang Golshiri in Texts, Contexts, Manuscripts and Fragments:

A Conference to celebrate the launch of the Golshiri Archive at Stanford

The Iranian Studies Program and Stanford University's Green Library are happy to announce the arrival of the Houshang Golshiri papers at Stanford. To celebrate this unique collection and to inquire into the literary legacy of Houshang Golshiri, arguably the most important Iranian modernist writer of his generation, we are organizing an international conference.

The conference participants include: Bahram Beyzaie, Reza Farokhfal, Barbad Golshiri, Shahriar Mandanipour, Abbas Milani, and Farzaneh Taheri.

A small reception will be held after the conference. Please note that space is limited and admittance is not allowed without an RSVP.

This event has been made possible by the Hamid & Christina Moghadam Program in Iranian Studies, Stanford University Libraries, The Bita Daryabari Endowment in Persian Letters, The Stanford Festival of Iranian Arts, the Dean's Office in the School of Humanities and Sciences at Stanford University, and Stanford Global Studies.
