The Iranian Metaphysicals: Explorations in Science, Islam, and the Uncanny In his groundbreaking book, "The Iranian Metaphysicals Alireza Doostdar delves into the lesser-known aspects of Iranian spirituality, politics, and intellectual inquiry to challenge widely held assumptions about Islam, rationality, and the relationship between science and religion. Through years of ethnographic and archival research, Doostdar reveals how metaphysical experimentation has been a central aspect of intellectual and religious movements in modern Iran, shaping what is considered orthodox Shi'i Islam and influencing the development of an Islamic Republic. The book begins by examining the attempts of modernizing intellectuals, religious leaders, and statesmen in Iran since the late 19th century to curtail practices such as communicating with the souls of the dead and appealing to saintly powers, deemed superstitious and irrational. However, these efforts have only multiplied the possibilities for metaphysical experimentation, leading to a diverse range of methods through which Iranians engage with the immaterial realm. Doostdar shows that metaphysical experimentation lies at the core of influential intellectual and religious movements in modern Iran, producing a plurality of rational orientations towards metaphysical phenomena.
Иранские метафизики: исследования в науке, исламе и сверхъестественном В своей новаторской книге «Иранские метафизики» Алиреза Доостдар углубляется в менее известные аспекты иранской духовности, политики и интеллектуального исследования, чтобы бросить вызов широко распространенным предположениям об исламе, рациональности и отношениях между наукой и религией. Благодаря многолетним этнографическим и архивным исследованиям Doostdar показывает, как метафизические эксперименты были центральным аспектом интеллектуальных и религиозных движений в современном Иране, формируя то, что считается ортодоксальным шиитским исламом, и влияя на развитие Исламской Республики. Книга начинается с изучения попыток модернизации интеллектуалов, религиозных лидеров и государственных деятелей в Иране с конца XIX века сократить такие практики, как общение с душами умерших и обращение к святым силам, которые считаются суеверными и иррациональными. Однако эти усилия только умножили возможности для метафизических экспериментов, что привело к разнообразному спектру методов, с помощью которых иранцы взаимодействуют с нематериальной сферой. Doostdar показывает, что метафизические эксперименты лежат в основе влиятельных интеллектуальных и религиозных движений в современном Иране, производя множество рациональных ориентаций на метафизические явления.
s métaphysiques iraniennes : la recherche dans la science, l'islam et le surnaturel Dans son livre pionnier « s métaphysiques iraniennes », Alireza Doostdar s'intéresse à des aspects moins connus de la spiritualité, de la politique et de l'étude intellectuelle iraniennes pour défier les hypothèses largement répandues sur l'islam, la rationalité et les relations entre la science et la religion. Grâce à des années de recherches ethnographiques et archivistiques, Doostdar montre comment les expériences métaphysiques ont été un aspect central des mouvements intellectuels et religieux dans l'Iran moderne, formant ce qui est considéré comme un islam chiite orthodoxe et influençant le développement de la République islamique. livre commence par étudier les tentatives de modernisation des intellectuels, des chefs religieux et des hommes d'État en Iran depuis la fin du XIXe siècle pour réduire les pratiques telles que la communication avec les âmes des morts et le recours à des forces saintes considérées comme superstitieuses et irrationnelles. Mais ces efforts n'ont fait que multiplier les possibilités d'expérimentation métaphysique, ce qui a conduit à une variété de méthodes par lesquelles les Iraniens interagissent avec la sphère intangible. Doostdar montre que les expériences métaphysiques sont à la base de mouvements intellectuels et religieux influents dans l'Iran moderne, produisant de nombreuses orientations rationnelles sur les phénomènes métaphysiques.

Metafísicos iranianos: Pesquisa científica, islâmica e sobrenatural Em seu livro inovador «Metafísicos iranianos», Alireza Dawostdar aprofunda-se em aspectos menos conhecidos da espiritualidade, política e pesquisa intelectual iraniana para desafiar suposições generalizadas sobre o Islã, a racionalidade e as relações entre ciência e religião. Através de anos de estudos etnográficos e arquivos, o Doostdar mostra como as experiências metafísicas foram um aspecto central dos movimentos intelectuais e religiosos no Irã atual, formando o que é considerado um Islã xiita ortodoxo e influenciando o desenvolvimento da República Islâmica.

Iranische Metaphysiker: Forschung in Wissenschaft, Islam und Übernatürlichem Alireza Doostdar geht in seinem bahnbrechenden Buch „Iranische Metaphysiker“ auf weniger bekannte Aspekte der iranischen Spiritualität, Politik und intellektuellen Forschung ein, um die weit verbreiteten Annahmen über Islam, Rationalität und die Beziehung zwischen Wissenschaft und Religion in Frage zu stellen. Durch jahrelange ethnographische und archivarische Forschung zeigt Doostdar, wie metaphysische Experimente ein zentraler Aspekt der intellektuellen und religiösen Bewegungen im heutigen Iran waren, den als orthodox geltenden schiitischen Islam prägten und die Entwicklung der Islamischen Republik beeinflussten. Das Buch beginnt mit einer Untersuchung der Modernisierungsversuche von Intellektuellen, religiösen Führern und Staatsmännern im Iran seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert, Praktiken wie die Kommunikation mit den Seelen der Toten und die Hinwendung zu heiligen Kräften, die als abergläubisch und irrational gelten, zu reduzieren. Diese Bemühungen vervielfachten jedoch nur die Möglichkeiten für metaphysische Experimente, was zu einer Vielzahl von Methoden führte, mit denen die Iraner mit der immateriellen Sphäre interagieren. Doostdar zeigt, dass metaphysische Experimente den einflussreichen intellektuellen und religiösen Bewegungen im modernen Iran zugrunde liegen und viele rationale Orientierungen an metaphysischen Phänomenen hervorbringen.

İran Metafiziği: Bilim, İslam ve Doğaüstü Çalışmalar Çığır açan "İran Metafiziği'adlı kitabında Alireza Doostdar, İslam, rasyonellik ve bilim ve din arasındaki ilişki hakkındaki yaygın varsayımlara meydan okumak için İran maneviyatının, siyasetinin ve entelektüel araştırmasının daha az bilinen yönlerini araştırıyor. Yıllar süren etnografik ve arşiv araştırmaları sayesinde Doostdar, metafizik deneylerin modern İran'daki entelektüel ve dini hareketlerin merkezi bir yönü olduğunu, ortodoks Şii İslam olarak kabul edilen şeyi şekillendirdiğini ve İslam Cumhuriyeti'nin gelişimini etkilediğini gösteriyor. Kitap, 19. yüzyılın sonlarından bu yana İran'daki entelektüelleri, dini liderleri ve devlet adamlarını, ölülerin ruhlarıyla iletişim kurmak ve batıl ve irrasyonel olarak kabul edilen kutsal güçlere hitap etmek gibi uygulamaları azaltmak için modernleştirme girişimlerini inceleyerek başlıyor. Bununla birlikte, bu çabalar yalnızca metafizik deney olanaklarını çoğaltmış ve İranlıların maddi olmayan alanla etkileşime girdiği çeşitli yöntemlerle sonuçlanmıştır. Doostdar, metafizik deneylerin modern İran'daki etkili entelektüel ve dini hareketlerin altında yattığını ve metafizik olaylara birçok rasyonel yönelim ürettiğini göstermektedir.
الميتافيزيقيا الإيرانية: دراسات في العلوم والإسلام والطبيعة الخارقة في كتابه الرائد «الميتافيزيقيا الإيرانية»، يتعمق علي رضا دوستدار في جوانب أقل شهرة من الروحانية والسياسة والتحقيق الفكري الإيراني لتحدي الافتراضات المنتشرة حول الإسلام والعقلانية و و العلاقة بين العلم والدين. خلال سنوات من البحث الإثنوغرافي والأرشفي، أظهر دوستدار كيف أن التجارب الميتافيزيقية كانت جانبًا مركزيًا للحركات الفكرية والدينية في إيران الحديثة، وشكلت ما يعتبر إسلامًا شيعيًا أرثوذكسيًا وأثرت على تطور الجمهورية الإسلامية. يبدأ الكتاب بفحص محاولات تحديث المثقفين والزعماء الدينيين ورجال الدولة في إيران منذ أواخر القرن التاسع عشر لتقليل الممارسات مثل التواصل مع أرواح الموتى ومناشدة القوات المقدسة التي تعتبر خرافية وغير عقلانية. ومع ذلك، فإن هذه الجهود ضاعفت فقط من إمكانيات التجارب الميتافيزيقية، مما أدى إلى مجموعة متنوعة من الأساليب التي يتفاعل بها الإيرانيون مع العالم غير الملموس. يُظهر دوستدار أن التجارب الميتافيزيقية تكمن وراء الحركات الفكرية والدينية المؤثرة في إيران الحديثة، مما ينتج عنه العديد من التوجهات العقلانية للظواهر الميتافيزيقية.
