520    Drawing from a rich array of visual and literary material 
       from nineteenth-century Iran, this groundbreaking book 
       rereads and rewrites the history of Iranian modernity 
       through the lens of gender and sexuality. Peeling away 
       notions of a rigid pre-modern Islamic gender system, 
       Afsaneh Najmabadi provides a compelling demonstration of 
       the centrality of gender and sexuality to the shaping of 
       modern culture and politics in Iran and of how changes in 
       ideas about gender and sexuality affected conceptions of 
       beauty, love, homeland, marriage, education, and 
       citizenship. She concludes with a provocative discussion 
       of Iranian feminism and its role in that country's current
       culture wars. In addition to providing an important new 
       perspective on Iranian history, Najmabadi skillfully 
       demonstrates how using gender as an analytic category can 
       provide insight into structures of hierarchy and power and
       thus into the organization of politics and social life
