Murabbiyān-i buzurg-i Īrān: Muḥammad ‘Alī Mujtahidī, Muḥammad Bahman Baygī, Riz̤ā Rūzbih

This scholarly work by Shahīn Īravānī, an Associate Professor at the University of Tihrān, offers a profound exploration into the history of modern education in Īrān through the lens of three transformative educators. Titled Murabbiyān-i Buzurg-i Īrān, the text details the biographies, management styles, and pedagogical innovations of Muḥammad ‘Alī Mujtahidī, renowned for his leadership at the prestigious Alborz High School; Muḥammad Bahman Baygī, the pioneer of tribal education who brought literacy to the nomads of Īrān; and Riz̤ā Rūzbih, the influential principal of the Alavi High School. Through critical analysis and historical context, Īravānī investigates how these individuals navigated the challenges of the Iranian educational landscape to establish lasting legacies of excellence and reform.
