Intelligents of Azerbaijan Known by the Signature “Iravani”
Abstract
The article talks about the activity of Yerevan poets, the evaluation of their creativity, and the role of these artists in our literary history. Iravan, the city of “the center of ulema, fuzela, and shura”, produced great scientists and mujtahids. There is information about dozens of scientific and cultural figures who were originally from Yerevan, who wrote and created under the surname and pseudonym “Iravani” in foreign countries. Dalil Iravani, Danis Mirza Rzakhan, Abulgasim Iravani, Mollabashi Haji Mirza Abdulkarim Iravani-Tabrizi, Bazmi, Lali, Muttallah, Sabir Hachi Rza Dilmani, Fazli Tabrizi, Harif, Hojjat, Shakir Iravani, Fakhri Iravani, Gabil Iravani, Qudsi Iravani, Nazim Iravani—artists and scientists—are discussed. Firudin Bey Kocherli, the author of The History of Azerbaijani Literature, gave more extensive information about the mentioned authors and analyzed examples of their works. Information was also given about scientific and cultural figures who bore the Iravani signature but lived outside of Yerevan, and controversial issues regarding their biographies and creativity were clarified.
Keywords: Azerbaijan, Iravani, signature, poet, pseudonym
