INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The group has compiled biographies of people who are unknown or lesser-known yet were involved in a variety of political, scientific,
Hussein Qomi, Seyyed Ahmad Khomeini, Muhammad Farzan, Salman Harati, Gholam Reza Saeedi, Tahereh Safarzadeh, Muhammad Ali Daei al-Islam,
Jafar Shahidi, Majid Sharif Waqefi, and Baha'uddin Mahallati are among the people introduced by this collection.Some of the books in this
series are written by Muhammad Ghobadi, who has a master's degree in Iranian history from the Islamic period.* What were your concerns when
you decided to write the books, and how did you come up with the idea?In 2009, I and a group of researchers from the Art Bureau discussed
how to use famous figures from diverse social, political, cultural, and artistic fields as role models for educated young readers who do not
necessarily study history
As a result, we developed the Mana characters group to introduce these characters and began working on it with the help of writers who were
interested in and experienced in those subjects
We have been able to publish about thirty books so far, twelve years after its inception, and the process is still ongoing.* Is it necessary
to preserve oral history in today's society? How did you make a historical book more engaging?I must mention that the "Mana Characters"
collection is a collection of research books, with interviews and oral history serving as one of the sources for their creation
Also, we aimed to have a fluent text with normal literature to convey a research work rather than thinking about the interestingness of a
text, which was of course on our minds
