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.

Oral History of 40 Years
One of the main hypotheses regarding the reason for the growth and expansion of oral history in the modern era relates to the fact that oral history is the best tool for addressing lesser-known topics of contemporary history. Topics that, particularly because little information is available about them, have received less attention.Omissions in the Editing of Oral History
After the completion of interview sessions, the original recordings are archived, the interviews are transcribed, proofread, and re-listened to. If the material possesses the qualities required for publication in the form of an article or a book, the editing process must begin. In general, understanding a verbatim transcription of an interview is often not straightforward and requires editing so that it may be transformed into a fluent, well-documented text that is easy to comprehend.100 Questions/8
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. The goal of this project is to open new doors to an issue and promote scientific discussions in the field of oral history.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.
