Bibliographical note
Funding Information:This essay, originally entitled "Is there an Iranian National Character? A Sociolinguistic Approach," derives partly from research undertaken in Iran from February 1971 to October 1972, supported partly by a grant from the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research and by Pahlavi University in Shiraz, both of whose help is gratefully acknowledged. Earlier drafts of this paper were read by Richard Antoun, James Bill, Michael Fischer, and Gernot Windfuhr, whose comments were much appreciated.
