Persepolis Study Guide Feiran Questions &
100% Correct Answers
1. According to the introduction, what stereotypical image is Satrapi trying to

dispel?

✓ ~~> She is trying to dispel that image of all Iranians are

fundamentalists, fanatics, or terrorists.




2. The author indicates two motives for writing Persepolis. What are they?

✓ ~~> 1) She believes that an entire nation should not be judged by

the wrongdoings of a few extremists.

freedom, those who died in the war against Iraq, those suffering under

repressive regimes, or those who were forced to leave their families and flee

their homeland to be forgotten.

✓ ~~> 1980 - the year that we are introduced to Marjane

1979 - the year that the Islamic Revolution took place

✓ ~~> 1980 - The veil became mandatory at school

All bilingual schools were closed down




5. In what ways does the children's response to the veil reflect a universal truth

about society?

✓ ~~> The children don't understand why they have to wear the veil.

They just follow the orders from their teachers. This may be an indicator

that many people do not truly understand the significance or

importance of wearing the veil.




6. How has education affected by the new regime? Why?

✓ ~~> All the girls had to wear the veil. All bilingual schools were closed

down. Girls and boys no longer could attend the same school. Bilingual

schools were considered symbols of capitalism and decadence by the

new regime.




7. What did the veil symbolize?

✓ ~~> The veil symbolizes oppression of women. It was a representation

of Middle Eastern women as passive, oppressed and monolithic.




8. What did bilingual schools symbolize to the new regime?

✓ ~~> Decadence and capitalism




9. Did women have a universal response to the veil? Why?

✓ ~~> No, "Everywhere in the streets there were demonstrations for and

against the veil." (pg. 5). Not all women wanted to wear the veil

because it symbolized oppression and removed identity.




10. Why was a picture of Marjane's mother published in the newspaper? How

did her mother respond? Why?

✓ ~~> The picture of her mother was published because she was

protesting against the veil with her hair down in a very protestful stance

(fist up). She was very scared and dyed her hair because the picture

was published in a newspaper in Iran and she didn't want to get in

trouble with the authorities or the fundamentalist vigilantes. She did not

want to end up in prison or be killed.




11. Describe the symbolism and conflict represented in the picture on the top

of page 6.

✓ ~~> The left side represents Marji's family's ideals--they value

education and knowledge above traditional religious ideologies; she is

torn between the two. One offers her academic intelligence and

freedom as a woman, but the other is soothing and comforting, though

it requires her to give in to a more suppressive facet of Islam by wearing

the veil. She is conflicted because one represents her family, while the

other represents who she wants to be (at the time), but neither one is

the obvious answer.

This may seem a little simplistic, and there are many other examples..., but

the first storyline that comes to mind of a situation similar to Marjane is the

story of MOANA. Moana is torn between following her call to be a loyal

islander and the next chief, but also to return the heart of Te Fiti. This is similar

to the way in which Marjane is torn between the western views and the loyal

Islamic calling.




12. When Marji was six, what did she decide?

✓ ~~> "At the age of six I was already sure I was the last prophet. This

was a few years before the revolution." (pg. 6)




13. What are three reasons Marji wants to be a prophet? What were her

underlying motives?
