نوروزنامه از صفویه تا دوران ناصری

Through a re-examination of nine Nawruz treatises, this study reveals that, despite addressing a shared ritual, these texts reflect diverse historical and intellectual discourses. The Nawruz nāmahs under consideration are collected in the volume Twelve Nawruz Treatises. A unifying thread among these treatises and narratives is the centrality of “time.” Above all else, Nawruz is perceived as a singular moment within the cycle of time—a sacred, auspicious, and consecrated moment that heralds rebirth, rejuvenation, and renewed possibility. It is precisely this significance that has enabled Nawruz to transcend divergent interpretations, enduring as the shared cultural heritage among all Iranians. The Nawruz nāmahs represent multiple articulations of a single truth, a truth in which life, hope, continuity, and cultural identity find expression. As long as Iranian identity endures, the dialogue with Nawruz will presist, and this ritual, much like spring itself, will remain forever new, unrepeatable, and generative.
