Zoroastrians in Britain
ISBN: 9780198261933 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Zoroastrianism is the religion of ancient Iran, dating back centuries before the coming of Islam. It stresses the duality between goodness and evil, light and happiness, and darkness and suffering. The Zoroastrians are also the oldest South Asian minority in Britain--with a history going back to 1724. This is the first study of British Zoroastrianism, covering personalities, traditions, and the contemporary concerns of this enduring but little known ancient religion.

Zoroastrians: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices
ISBN: 9780415239028 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Zoroastrianism is significant in the history of religions. It can be traced back to a remote, possibly even Indo-European, past. This element links Zoroastrianism with the beliefs of ancient (Vedic) India, and survives as a subordinate part of what is one of the earliest revealed religions. Zoroaster's own teachings have moreover a highly spiritual and ethical content, which makes them a rewarding study in themselves. This book attempts to trace the continuous history of the faith from the time it was preached by Zoroaster down to the present day - a span of about 3500 years. First taught...

Dualism in Transformation
ISBN: 9780728602335 / Angielski / Miękka / 184 str. This is an examination of Sasanian Zoroastrianism. The Sasanian period was a crucial time in the formation of several great religious traditions of the Near East - Judaism, Christianity, Manicheasim - and in laying the foundations for the emergence of Islam. It examines the great diversity of doctrine, myth and perhaps also practice in Sasanian religion. He concludes that, though it had its limitations as a viable religion, satisfying the yearnings of people looking for the ultimate religious truth, its survival to the present day in Iran indicates a certain resilience, and that Islam may...

Armenian and Iranian Studies
ISBN: 9780935411195 / Angielski / Twarda / 1504 str. Armenian and Iranian Studies brings together select articles published in disparate journals and volumes over the past two decades.

In Search of Zarathustra: Across Iran and Central Asia to Find the World's First Prophet
ISBN: 9781400031429 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Long before the first Hebrew temple, before the birth of Christ or the mission of Muhammad, there lived in Persia a prophet to whom we owe the ideas of a single god, the cosmic struggle between good and evil, and the Apocalypse. His name was Zarathustra, and his teachings eventually held sway from the Indus to the Nile and spread as far as Britain.
Following Zarathustra s elusive trail back through time and across the Islamic, Christian, and Jewish worlds, Paul Kriwaczek uncovers his legacy at a wedding ceremony in present-day Central Asia, in the Cathar heresy of medieval France, and...

Zoroastrianism
ISBN: 9781585092819 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. This obscure and ancient religion is receiving more and more attention in modern times due to its claimed influence by scholars upon Christianity. This particular author, however, focuses upon the relationship between Zoroastrianism and Judaism, as he sets out to prove that Christianity did in fact receive influence from Zoroastrianism, but that it was transmitted through Judaism. This route of transmission allows the author to clearly show how Judaism itself was directly affected by Zoroastrainism during the Exilic Period, a time when these two faiths were existing in close proximity to...

The Teachings of Zoroaster and the Philosophy of the Parsi Religion
ISBN: 9781594626104 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Zoroastrianism is a religion much commented upon by a few enthusiastic Oriental scholars, and less understood by the general public. Out of the millions of believers of this faith in the by gone ages, there now remains a handful of devout followers, known as the Parsis. I have, therefore, ventured to put before my readers a brief sketch of the teachings of this divine prophet. I hope, that the strangers to the faith may find in it food for philosophic enlightenment, and the Zoroastrians themselves a subject for deeper and wider researches in the untold wealth of sublime theology and...

Witches, Whores, and Sorcerers: The Concept of Evil in Early Iran
ISBN: 9780292747678 / Angielski / Miękka / 245 str. Early Iranians believed evil had to have a source outside of God, which led to the concept of an entity as powerful and utterly evil as God is potent and good. These two forces, good and evil, which have always vied for superiority, needed helpers in this struggle. According to the Zoroastrians, every entity had to take sides, from the cosmic level to the microcosmic self. One of the results of this battle was that certain humans were thought to side with evil. Who were these allies of that great Evil Spirit? Women were inordinately singled out. Male healers were forbidden to deal...

The Spirit of Zoroastrianism
ISBN: 9780300170351 / Angielski / Miękka / 270 str. Zoroastrianism is one of the world's oldest religions, though it is not among the best understood. Originating with Iranian tribes living in Central Asia in the second millennium BCE, Zoroastrianism was the official religion of the Iranian empires until Islam superseded it in the seventh century AD. Centered on the worship of Ahura Mazda, the All-knowing Ruler, Zoroastrianism follows the practices and rituals set out by the prophet Zarathustra, according to the indigenous tradition. As one of the world's great religions, Zoroastrianism has a heritage rich in texts and cultic... Zoroastrianism is one of the world's oldest religions, though it is not among the best understood.
