Women in Iran from the Rise of Islam to 1800 Paperback - 2003

by Guity Nashat (Editor); Lois Beck (Editor)


First line

DESPITE PERCEPTIONS about how Islamic teachings regulated gender roles, many practices and values such as the seclusion of women, the veil, the legal subordination of women to men, and societal attitudes enforcing a division of labor along gender lines are rooted in the pre-Islamic history of the inhabitants of the Iranian plateau and their neighbors in the Nile-to-Oxus region.
