Ahmad Fardid (1910-94), an 'anti-Western' philosopher, became the self-proclaimed philosophical spokesperson for the Islamic Republic, coining the term 'Westoxication'. With thirteen interviews relating his colourful life and intellectual legacy, Mirsepassi sheds light on Iran's twentieth-century intellectual and political self-construction.
Part I. Ahmad Fardid and His Legacies: Introduction; Part II. Fardid's Life: 1. The Man and His Life; Part III. Conversations on Fardid's Life and Thought: 2. Hossein Nasr: for Fardid, Corbin was worthless, but, the Shah was great; 3. Daryush Ashuri: Fardid was not very religious; 4. Ramin Jahanbeglu: Fardid was at the center of Fardiddiyeh (Fardid and Fardiddiyeh); 5. Abbas Amanat: Fardid whom I came to know; 6. Ali Reza Meybodi: Fardid was 'Dante's Inferno'; 7. Behrouz Farnou: Fardid's thought was post-modern; 8. Ehsan Shari'ati: Fardid misunderstood Heidegger; 9. Seyyed Ali Mirfattah: 'I admired his anti-capitalism and his anti-Americanism'; 10. Mohammad Reza Jozi: Fardid's philosophy was not political; 11. Mansour Hashemi: Fardid pioneered post-Bergson philosophy in Iran; 12. Ata'ollah Mohajerani: philosophers need power; 13.
