The chapter explores the changing depictions of the constitutional revolution (1906–1911) as constructed in history textbooks during the Pahlavi (1925–1979). It embeds the divergent narratives of the revolution in the historical context in which they were written. It unpacks the way they constructed the myth of the saviour as personified in the monarch. From a ‘Revolution without a Name’ under late Reza Shah’s period to an ‘Unfinished Revolution’ in the waning years of Mohammad Reza Shah, the writing of this episode has been implicated in politics of the state’s legitimacy building as the chapter demonstrates.

摘要

The chapter explores the changing depictions of the constitutional revolution (1906–1911) as constructed in history textbooks during the Pahlavi (1925–1979). It embeds the divergent narratives of the revolution in the historical context in which they were written. It unpacks the way they constructed the myth of the saviour as personified in the monarch. From a ‘Revolution without a Name’ under late Reza Shah’s period to an ‘Unfinished Revolution’ in the waning years of Mohammad Reza Shah, the writing of this episode has been implicated in politics of the state’s legitimacy building as the chapter demonstrates.
