%0 Journal Article %T Subject Analysis in Iran¡¯s Local Historiography 1722-1925 %A Moloud Sotoudeh %A Morteza Nouraei %A Aliakbar Kajbaf %J Asian Culture and History %D 2013 %I %R 10.5539/ach.v5n2p104 %X Subjects can be assumed as phenomena possessing independent axes on which intellectual and material achievements are deployed into a network of interconnections that, centered on certain axes in specific place and time, may give rise to a series of subjects or may transform into turning points that inevitably lead to dimming or elimination of a range of issues and bring about significant changes and developments in another broad range of them. Phenomena such as local governments/states formation or collapse, industrial revolution, and other phenomena such as new civil laws, the press, public education, etc., in any given period can be new issues affecting the situation before and after them, transforming into turning points and/or serving as axes for other subjects. By identifying a network of such subjects, we will be able to understand their process of formation, evolution and variation within the scope of local histories. %U http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/ach/article/view/25882
