Scientific, cultural, social and political biography of 10 indelible contemporary characters of Iran presented in the Series of books on indelible characters published by the Office of Islamic Revolution Literature and Soureh Mehr Publication.
According to Iran Oral History website, this series is collected by the group researching indelible figures; this research group was established in the spring of 2009 in Resistance Research & Study Center with the efforts of Office of Islamic Revolution Literature. The aim of such effort was to publish and disseminate the biography of prominent Iranian figures that are unknown in contemporary history of this country despite their efforts or no biography literature has been published presenting them.
The first package of this series introduces various political and scientific figures; the books, according to their order of publication and author are:
1- Seyyed Mohammad Khomeini, Javad Kamvar Bakhshayesh
2- Tahereh Saffarzadeh, Zabihollah Habibi Nejad

10- Salman Harati, Ali Taghavi.
It is worth mentioning that so far, in addition to the series mentioned above, six other biographies of indelible characters are complete and will be soon published by Soureh Mehr and will be made available in the market. Also, over 25 additional topics are being written and we hope that by the end of the current decade (Iranian calendar) they will reach to one hundred titles.

The Role of Objects in Oral Narrative
Philosophers refer to anything that exists—or possesses the potential to exist—as an object. This concept may manifest in material forms, abstract notions, and even human emotions and lived experiences. In other words, an object encompasses a vast spectrum of beings and phenomena, each endowed with particular attributes and characteristics, and apprehensible in diverse modalities.100 Questions/6
We asked several researchers and activists in the field of oral history to express their views on oral history questions. The names of each participant are listed at the beginning of their answers, and the text of all answers will be published on this portal by the end of the week.
