Zahra Meshkani

Biography

Persian, English, Arabic 

Zahra Meshkani comes from Iran, where she recently finished her MA with a focus on the sociology of literature in post-revolution reflections of literature. Interested in philosophy and theory as well, she finds literary pieces most interesting in how they are intertwined with one's perspective — whether residing in the center or the periphery. Her research interests are translation theories, canon formation, nation-state, and the East-West dichotomy.
