Forthcoming from Ekpyrosis Press:

The I and the Non-I: Beyond Subjectivism and Nihilism, by Gholamhosseini Ebrahimi Dinani, translated by Seyed Javad Miri. Preface by Dustin J. Byrd

The I and the Non-I: Beyond Subjectivism and Nihilism by Gholamhossein Ebrahimi Dinani (b. 1934-) is a profound philosophical inquiry into the unity of being and consciousness. Bridging Islamic metaphysics and modern phenomenology, Dinani dissolves the traditional dualism between existence and awareness, presenting reason as the luminous essence of reality itself. In his Ishraq framework, the “I” is both the mirror and the manifestation of being, while knowledge, love, and intellect converge as expressions of divine light. Through rigorous rational analysis and metaphysical reflection, the book redefines reason as a sacred ontological principle, positioning Islamic philosophy as a living dialogue partner within global philosophical discourse.

The Revolution in Iran: Global Perspectives, Possibilities, and Challenges, by Seyed Javad Miri

The Revolution in Iran: Global Perspectives, Possibilities, and Challenges delves into the profound impact of revolutions on human consciousness, social organization, and political legitimacy. This work transcends traditional political historiographies by integrating philosophical, theological, and ontological dimensions. Miri compares the French, Russian, and Iranian revolutions, exploring how these transformative events challenge national and ideological boundaries. By examining the ethical tensions between revolutionary ideals and their institutional outcomes, the book offers a metatheoretical framework to understand revolutions as ongoing moral processes that reshape humanity’s quest for justice, unity, and dignity in the face of systemic limitations.
