Modern Persian prose literature
<jats:p> Our understanding of nineteenth-century literary practice is often mediated by the national literature model of study that continues to govern discussions of modern literature. Put differently, contemporary evaluations of literary texts of the nineteenth century are often arrived at by using the national literature models that remain ascendant. This results in particular from the interplay of two concepts, ‘nationalism’ and ‘novelism’, and the role that these ideological agendas play in establishing the frameworks for literary study that predominate in today's academy. Novelism is defined by Clifford Siskin as ‘the habitual subordination of writing to the novel’ – it is the prevalent tendency to approach prose writing in general using a framework of value derived from criticism of the novel. </jats:p>
