Ta'ziyeh: Ritual and Drama in Iran, edited by Peter J. Chelkowski, New York University Press 1979, collects the proceedings of an international symposium on Ta'ziyeh held at the 1976 Shiraz Festival of Arts. Its strength is that Chelkowski was a professor of Iranian and Islamic studies at NYU and this is a named specialist's scholarly volume rather than a general encyclopedia entry. Its limit is that it reflects scholarship as it stood in the 1970s, so a claim about the form's more recent practice needs a more current source.
