The following bibliography, listed in author-date format, is grouped into books, dissertations, and articles. The list of Persian sources cited below, compiled by Ameneh Youssefzadeh with the help of Sasan Fatemi, includes only books while the non-Persian sources include books, dissertations, theses, and article-length works. Most of the sources listed below have been printed within the past three decades. For more detailed discussion of the parameters and content of the following bibliography, please see the editors’ preface to this special issue. For readers interested in obtaining more detail on relevant resources not listed here, a collaborative online project (www.musiqi.org) has recently been inititated with the goal of systematically documenting all relevant existing published materials, including historical references, articles found in current Persian language periodicals such as Māhur and Ketāb-e Sāl-e Shaydā, listings of sound and video recordings, and book and recording reviews.

References

2 Māhur publications, like the Māhur journal and the website www.mahoor.ir, often bear the transliteration “Mahoor.” The transliterations that appear in this special issue, including that of the word Māhur, are based on the transliteration system used by the International Journal for Middle East Studies (IJMES), a system which has been altered slightly in this issue because Iranian Studies usually omits diacriticals (like “ī”) in the transliteration of non-Roman scripts. Editors are grateful to have been granted permission to at least distinguish between short “a”s and long “ā”s in the Persian bibliography.

3 In 1381/2002, this three-volume work was published in one volume (Tehrān: Mo'asseseh-ye Farhangi-ye Honari-ye Māhur).

4 For Persian and non-Persian books, both the most recent publication and the original edition have been cited. The exception to this rule is that when English translations of French or German books exist, this translation has been cited rather than the original. Thus, Jean During's 2003 book The Spirit of Sounds: The Unique Art of Ostad Elahi can be found below. However, During's 2001 L'âme des sons. L'art unique d'Ostad Elahi (1895–1974), (Gordes, Editions du Relié), upon which the 2003 version is based, is not listed. Also, diacriticals and italicization that appear in the bibliographic citations below reflect those used in the original source, even though these often differ from the IJMES system used throughout the rest of this special issue. In those cases where the author's full first name is known (but not printed in the original source), it is provided in brackets.

5 Doubleday's original book entitled Three Women of Herat was published in 1988 (London, Jonathan Cape Ltd).

6 While many of the dissertations in this section can be ordered from University Microforms, Inc., they are listed here as unpublished works. Other dissertations, like Ameneh Youssefzadeh's 2002 Les bardes du Khorassan iranien: le bakhshi et son répertoire (2002) and Mehrdad Fallahzadeh's Persian Writing on Music: A Study of Persian Musical Literature from 1000 to 1500 AD (2005), which have been printed by other publishing houses or university presses, are listed in the book section.

7 The shorter works below include journal and encyclopedia articles, chapters, and the like. The list below does not include book, sound recording or video recording reviews. Nor does it cite music entries in Encyclopedia Iranica.
