This Book was Way more than I hoped for. You see, years ago I must have read something about how Zoroastrianism brought on a virtual Moral Revolution in the West, comparable to Confucius’s Moral Influence in China. The difference being that Everybody knows about the influence of Confucius in Asia but that Zoroastrianism suffered badly in the Storms of History allowing Morally Derivative Religions to grow and thrive while Zoroastrianism was minimized and marginalized. Most serious Historians do not even Consider Zoroastrianism. The Focus is all on Egypt, Greece and Judaism.Well, fortunately Professor Jenny Rose came along with her scholarly Masterpiece. It can’t be long before she is a Full Tenured Professor somewhere, even Head of her own History Department.The Title of her Book is “An Introduction…â€; however, this is in context to how the book was grouped with other books by her Publisher. The other books in the Series may have been introductions, but I largely doubt that anybody besides the most ambitious scholar would need anything in addition to Professor Rose’s Book.Now, yes, the book is SO complete that inevitably there will be sections that concern matters that you would not be the least bit curious about, but with a Real Physical Book, and not a Kindle Format, it is extremely easy to scan through until you find something again that pulls in your attention.But, concerning my vague assumption that Zoroastrianism brought a Moral Revolution in its wake, well, whatever I had read a few years, or a few dozen years, back was certainly true. The Religions that Most Historians and the General Public think were so pivotal to the Moral Development of the West were indeed only derivative, indeed, they were a bit reactionary and even backtracked a bit from the Moral Heights of Zoroastrianism. One can only suppose that if Alexander had stayed in Macedonia, or Conquered toward the West instead of toward the East, we’d all be living in a Beautifully Moral High Civilization now, instead of counting the days until our Environmental or Political Social Doom overtakes us.
Jenny Rose is a scholar that specializes in Iranian Studies (most prominently Ancient Iranian religion, history, and culture). This is one of the definitive books devoted to Zoroastrianism along with Mary Boyce's 'Zoroastrians: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices'. Despite its title, this book is much more than just a introduction. The book contains information not just on Zoroastrian practices and beliefs but also maps, a glossary, picture and illustrations, and a comprehensive history of Zoroastrianism in the myriad regions it thrived at. (a chapter devoted to Zoroastrianism in Central Asia, that is rare!). There is very few resources for the study of Zoroastrianism so this is a very invaluable book that successfully attempted to fill that void.Now a constructive caution, this is NOT a book meant for a general audience. This is a academic book published by a academic publisher by a scholar meant for other scholars and students. I'm a student of Iranian, Syriac, and Central Asian Studies so I can easily understand all the cities/places, geography, religions, events, languages, ethnic groups, peoples, and empires/civilizations mentioned. If you are a lay reader, you will struggle with reading this book. Another thing is about the religious readers. This in itself is not a problem but a few of these readers are merely interested because of the few similarities between Zoroastrianism and their own Abrahamic religion. So basically, they are only interested to make the fascinating religion that is Zoroastrianism (Mazdayasna) a mere compliment or curiosity to their biblical/monotheistic perspective instead of studying it for its own sake. If you are a scholar, student, or a learned reader then this book will not disappoint. If you are a lay reader, I recommend books by Peter Clark and Farhang Mehr as they are meant for Western lay readers.
Prof. Jenny Rose in her book does an overall exceptional job of detailing the long and complex history of one of the world's richest yet arguably most obscure belief systems. In essence, she manages to not only touch upon, but also definitively explore its many varied facets, over three hundred pages and nine chapters, each one dedicated to a specific aspect of the ancient faith. She starts off by going into its background, its rise to prominence in ancient Persia at the peak of its glory, then details its subsequent decline after the Arab conquest, and its diaspora communities found in India and North America today, complete with additional maps and dozens of photos.Strongly recommended for anyone interested in learning more about the Zoroastrian religion and its practices, no matter how little or how much you may already know about the topic!
The good news is that this book provides a wealth of information about Zoroastrianism--including its history and development. Unfortunately, I found the writing and style of the book to be rather dense and dull. In fact, the writing style somewhat distracted from the good information that the book contained, which actually wound up distracting me to the point that I had a hard time retaining the information that the book provided! Therefore, as a resource this book is really good. But, if you are looking to read a book that can educate you (and introduce you) to Zoroastrianism, I'd have to say look else. This book was just too dense to really get into or appreciate.
The book is written to be informative, not entertaining. It tells about Zoroastrainism and touches upon its evolution through history and through it's expansion from Persia to the Orient. Read this book if you want to understand the evolution of the religion and get a better understanding of what it is. This is not a book to tell you all about the religion and practices, although you will be able to infer some of it from the references.
Anyone who is interested in the origins of religion should consider reading this book.
