Repetition may operate within one utterance, or across several times, places, and artists. The relationship between two repeated utterances cannot always be determined with certainty. But repetition offers exciting ways to understand the communicative process in oral and literate contexts across the ancient world"--  Sara Afshari, "Religion, Media and Conversion in Iran: Mediated Christianity in an Islamic Context " English | ISBN: 0367436698 | 2023 | 204 pages | PDF | 5 MB Religion, Media and Conversion in Iran studies the reception of Farsi Christian television channels by Muslim audiences in Iran: their motivations in viewing the Christian message, their methods of interpretation and negotiation with different media texts and their process of changing or altering their religion.
