Download or read book Sword of Persia written by Michael Axworthy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nader Shah, ruler of Persia from 1736 to 1747, embodied ruthless ambition, energy, military brilliance, cynicism and cruelty. His reign was filled with bloodshed, betrayal and horror. Yet, Nader Shah is central to Iran's early modern history. From a shepherd boy, he rose to liberate his country from foreign occupation, and make himself Shah. He took eighteenth century Iran in a trajectory from political collapse and partition to become the dominant power in the region, briefly opening the prospect of a modernising state that could have resisted colonial intervention in Asia. He recovered all the territory lost by his predecessors, including Herat and Kandahar, and went on to conquer Moghul Delhi, plundering the enormous treasures of India. Nader commanded the most powerful military force in Asia, if not the world. He repeatedly defeated the armies of Ottoman Turkey, the preeminent State of Islam, overran most of what is now Iraq and threatened to take Baghdad on several occasions. But from the zenith of his success he declined into illness, insane avarice and horrific savagery, committing terrible atrocities against the Persian people, his friends, and even his family, until he finally died as violently as he had lived. The "Sword of Persia" recreates the story of a remarkable, ruthless man, capable of both charm and brutality. It is a rich narrative, full of dramatic incident, including much new research into original Iranian and other material, which will prove indispensable to historians and students. The book includes many contemporary illustrations, and maps.

Book excerpt: Nadir shahs name went down in history also as a great reformer of religion. It is knotwo parts; in the West the Turks of Azerbaijan were far from the Turks of the Ottomans who believed in the faith of Sunnite Henefi of Islam, in the east from the Turks of the Middle Asia. Afterwards, Shah Ismayils religious reforms gave a chance to the Persian nationalists to seize the power. wn from the history that the Safavids had come to the power by preferring the ideology of Shiite. As soon as Shah Ismayil came to the power, came to the throne in Tabriz, he carried out a religious reform, and obliged the population of the provinces of Azerbaijan and Persian to adopt Shiite. Though he the big ruinous wars lasted for ten years; The cunning power centers of that time could use properly the chance of the difference of faith between the brotherly countries. He abolished Alevilik which was adopted by the dynasty of Safavids as an official religious faith, and made the faith of Jafari official. During his time Azerbaijan restored itshad established a big state, the religious reform carried out by him, divided the Turkish world into The discrimination of faith made the Turks of both Azerbaijan and Turkey, be face to face, and caused to former might again, and in the world it became the second mighty state after the state of Ottomans. But it didnt last much. In 1747, Nadir shah was assassinated by the captain of unfortunate Motherland and the historical facts. This history has been living in the heart of any Azerbaijani and throws light on its future. Up to Yunus Oghuzs this novel, there were written different works about Nadir shah. But except Yunus Oghuzs novel, in none of those works Nadir shah didnt unite the historical lands of the country, or didnt reinstate the old Turkish traditions, and at last as a connective, and reformer. Up this time, especially, during the Soviet period, the real heroes of Azerbaijan were forgotten, they were disgraced underhis guard at the age of sixty-one. It was the beginning of the fall of the empire of Azerbaijan which could be able to last till 1925. The novel of Nadir shah by Yunus Oguz reflects wholly one part of the glorious history of our different brands, the personalities who put the foundation of the division by the policy pursued by them, were shown to the people as heroes. The name of Nadir shah Avshar was given in all the Oghuz, Nadir shah isnt valued as an inexperienced ruler who didnt know what the diplomacy was, like in the works written in the former times. On the contrary, in the novel it is clearly seen that Nadir shah understood the tricky policy of the neighboring states for to make Azerbaijan and Turkey become face to face, and he didnt agree with them. In the work it has been given a broad place to Nadir shahs religious reforms. It is true, Nadir shah wasnt able to carry out till the end all those reforms, his policy of to put an end to the discrimination of faith, to unite all the Turkish world. Yunus Oghuz shows that Nadir shah wanted to put an end the difference of Shiite-Sunnite in the wholly Islam. But the conservative scientists, confessors, and the political circles that set up their power basing on the difference of faith, put up resistance to his plans. In the work, the death of the great Azerbaijani ruler has been written in an interesting form. The investigations of the last period show that the Russian intelligeliterature as a blood-sucker Iranian shah and the cruel ruler. Firstly, in the historical novel of Nadir shah written by the writer and publicist Yunus Oghuz, this mighty Azerbaijani ruler is characterized as a great statesman who lovepower after a half century after Nadir shah, were killed by the way of terror for they laid obstacles the Russians plans. It is natural, all these d his motherland, who wished the integrity of Azerbaijan and Turkish world, as a builder o

Book Synopsis The Rise and Fall of Nader Shah by : Willem M. Floor
Download or read book The Rise and Fall of Nader Shah written by Willem M. Floor and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By any measure, Nader Shah -- founder of the Afsharid Dynasty -- ranks as a towering figure in Iranian history. Rising from the humblest of origins, he became a military commander of genius, restored an embattled Persia to imperial greatness, and proceeded to wield the power of the throne with a ruthlessness that approached derangement. Yet much about the man and his tumultuous times remains obscure. This book peers into the shadows by drawing on unusual source materials -- unpublished letters and reports written by the staff of the Dutch East India Company, who watched in dismay as the tyrant sacrificed the nation's economic health (and Dutch hopes for trade) to feed his war machine. The book looks at his entire life: how a shepherd boy mastered fighting skills, assembled armies, reunited Iran and freed it from Afghan occupation, invaded and plundered both India and Ottoman Turkey, and crowned himself Nader Shah of Iran after usurping the Safavid throne in 1736. Because there are no other contemporary reports, published or unpublished, of this length and geographical scope, much of the information offered here is unique. Nader Shah, who not only ruined neighbouring countries but also his own, is depicted in all his fury and bloodthirstiness -- traits often glossed over by later court chroniclers. At times the Dutch observers are so sickened by his total disregard for the well-being of his country and for human life that they pray to God to release Iran from his hold. Release came in 1747, when he was taken by surprise in his bed and assassinated -- but not before first killing two of the attackers. For the first time in English, "The Rise and Fall of Nader Shah" makes these primary-source eyewitness reports of an important period in Iranian history available to historians and students alike.

Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II When the King had entered the tent in which he usually slept, he took his seat on the takht prepared for him, leant back on his cushions, and remained for a few minutes in silent thought. The remembrance of the scene he had just witnessed seemed to be pleasing to him, for a faint smile came into his face. He drew the dagger from his waistband and looked at it curiously. 'A woman's toy, ' he said to himself, ' but she would have used it, and it was enough to frighten two men. Men! She is more of a man than either of them! How beautiful she looked!' He put the dagger down on the takht beside his axe, and paused a moment. Then he called for a servant. 'Send me the Agha Bashi.' The Agha Bashi or chief eunuch came at once. He was a tall negro, with a sad but pleasant face. In all the great King's following there was perhaps no one whom he trusted so thoroughly, and with reason, for the man was worthy of trust. He had the fidelity of his race for those he loved, and he loved Nadir, who had rescued him from ill-treatment some years before and had given him service. A quick eye for character and a half-generous, half-calculating kindness to men who were in trouble had won Nadir many friends. He never did a wiser thing than when he promoted the grateful African to the charge of his Anderun, a charge which meant close attachment to his person, and considerable power. 'You know what happened just now when I was looking at the Indian women.' The negro bent his head. 'I know. I saw it all.' 'The girl is beautiful.' 'Beautiful as a Peri.' 'I want to see her alone.' The negro looked troubled. 'Ba chashm--on my eyes be it, but' 'Well, what is it? You think there is danger, that the Indians have sent her here to do me evil?' and Nadir laughed..
