I’ve got my M.A. in English Literature from Allame Tabatabai University located in Tehran --the capital of Iran—and reputed as being one of the country’s top universities in literature and humanities. As a B.A. I studied English Literature in the State University of shiraz-- again one of the best in the country. Presently, I hold a non-official position as an English teacher in a local college in my hometown. As for this proposal and the ideas involved, I came across most of them while working on my M.A thesis titled “A Study of Pilgrimage in Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress and Byron’s Child Harold’s Pilgrimage” that was a comparative study of the two works in their historical context. Literature for me is an interest as well as a professional objective, but religion is part of my everyday life and a huge concern. I am particularly interested in various forms of religion and its different representations and am eager to share perspectives with other people from around the world.
