Molla Nasreddin: The Making of a Modern Trickster, 1906-

1911

Description :

In the early twentieth century, a group of artists and intellectuals

reinterpreted the Middle Eastern trickster figure Nasreddin in their


periodical Moll&#257Nasreddin. They used folklore, visual art and

satire to disseminate a consciously radical and social democratic

discourse on religion, gender, sexuality and power in Transcaucasia

and Iran. The periodical reached tens of thousands of people in the

Muslim world, impacting the thinking of a generation.This highlyillustrated

book explores the milieu in which Moll&#257Nasreddin

was born, the way the periodical recreated the trickster trope, and

the influence of European graphic artists, especially Francisco Goya,

on the journal. It focuses on the most creative period, 1906-11,

when the journal reflected the social and political concerns of three

major upheavals: the 1905 Russian Revolution, the 1906&#8211191

Iranian Constitutional Revolution, and the 1908 Young Turk

Movement.
