Nasim-e-Shomal (Persian: نسیم شمال, romanized: Nasim-e šomāl, lit. 'Northern Breeze') was a weekly newspaper that existed between September 1907 and 1933 with intervals. Along with Sur-e Esrafil,Majalleh-ye Estebdad and others, it was one of the publications started following the Iranian constitutional revolution.[1]

Sorour Soroudi describes the paper as a "one-man weekly newspaper".[2] The weekly was a pioneer in using poems and satire in presenting the political and social situation of Iran at the time and was identified with its founder and editor, Seyed Ashrafedin Hosseini, a well-known poet. Over time Seyed Ashrafedin Hosseini was called Mr. Nasim-e-Shomal.[2]

History and profile

[edit]

The founder of Nasim-e-Shomal was an Iranian poet, Seyed Ashrafedin Hosseini, mostly known as Gilani.[3][4] The title was a reference to the Russian Revolution of 1905.[2] The paper was launched by Gilani in Rasht on 10 September 1907 soon after the Iranian constitutional revolution.[3][5] Gilani designed the paper to fight against despotism and to this end, he avoided producing a mainstream publication.[3] Instead, he covered his poems, satire and other literary work to disseminate his views in an attractive way.[3][6] His writings were also about women and their functions.[3] The paper came out weekly in Rasht until 1912 when Gilani had to move to Tehran due to the destruction of his publishing house by Russians.[3][6] In Tehran Gilani published the paper in a publishing house owned by Jewish people and continued to criticize the existing political environment through his poems.[6] During his period Nasim-e-Shomal was the most-read paper in the country selling over 4,000 copies although it was consisted of only two pages.[3] From 1925 when Reza Shah became the ruler the paper did not contain oppositional material.[7]

Nasim-e-Shomal ceased publication in 1933.[3]

Spin off

[edit]

Following the death of Gilani the title was published by other journalists from 29 May 1934 to November 1940.[5] However, this spin off was not similar to original Nasim-e-Shomal since it became a regular newspaper without its successor's attraction and originality.[8]
