Theatre studies researcher at IRAN University of Art exploring hamartia and ethical entitlement in Aristotle’s Poetics.

Iran
Message

At IRAN University of Art, I’m pursuing a Ph.D. in Theatre Studies after completing an M.A. in Dramatic Literature at Shiraz University of Art. My thesis reinterpreted Aristotle’s concept of hamartia in relation to ethical entitlement.

I’ve published peer-reviewed research on Aristotle, ethics, and theatre, including work on hamartia and tragic theory. I also received the National Best Play Award at Namajra Theatre Festival.

My creative work includes writing and directing stage plays and short films, as well as teaching theatre fundamentals and Persian literature. I’m interested in connecting classical texts with contemporary philosophical frameworks.
