Apart from English literature, we had to pass other modules as well. Persian literature was one of the many I remember was taught by the late Dr Hamidi Shirazi, a poet and author who was mostly famous for his love affair with a fellow student during his university years. He wrote numerous pieces in praise of his aomrous whom he never managed to marry. His love story was similar to that of Saidi Sirjani, another poet and writer (later killed in the prisons of the Islamic republic. Sirjani fell in love with a fellow student and was at some stage explelled from the university for his passion and the scandal it created). Both Dr Hamidi Shirazi and Saidi Sirjani became famous not primarily for their valuable literary work but their scandolous love affair.
However, in the first photo and indeed the res,t Dr Hamidi Shirazi is standing in the middle in the dark suit. I am second from right in two photos but absent from the third (the left one). According to my friends, I looked very elegant in the silk grey dress and the hair style which I had adopted in those days.
