Gholam-Hossein Farnoud

Gholam-Hossein Farnoud Zhendeh (Turkish (Az) or Azerbaijani-Turkish: Qulamhüseyin Fərnud Jende; تورکجه، فارسی: غلامحسین فرنود ژنده ; Turkish (Tr) or Turkey Turkish: Gulamhüseyn Fernud Jende; February 24,1941 in Tabriz - March 15, 2020 in Tabriz) was a prominent South Azerbaijani or Iranian-Azerbaijani publicist, author, critic, translator, University lecturer and social/cultural activist. In 1964, he was appointed managing editor of "Nagsha va Andisheha" (Persian: نقش ها و اندیشه ها), which was published in the Mahd Azadi newspaper (Persian: روزنامه مهد آزادی) and was the catalyst for the rapt attention of his close friends Samad Behrangi, Rahim Raisnia, and Abdol-Hossein Nahidiazar. After a year, with request of chief editor of newspaper Seyyed Javad Peyman from Gholam-Hossein Farnoud, they decided to publish the "Adineh" with inviting more authors. As result, the several articles by famous South Azerbaijani authors Samad Behrangi, Gholam-Hossein Saedi, Reza Baraheni, Alireza Nabdel, Maftun Amini, Hassan Ruzpeykar, Behruz Dehgani, Rahim Raisnia and some other Azerbaijani and Iranian authors were published weekly over two years in 8 pages. Adineh has important role in aggregation of South Azerbaijani and other Iranian mostly left-wings believed intellectuals against Pahlavi regime until it was confiscated by Savak in 1967. [1] [2]

Besides, Gholam-Hossein Farnoud primarily worked as an editor, publisher and university lecturer. The majority of his works were published under the pseudonyms "Ali Siyahpoosh", "Taher Danesh", and "Abolfazl Atrak". His last book as author is entitled "Dar Basateh Nokteh Danan" (Persian: در بساط نکته دانان) [3][4], and it is sort of a compilation of his different articles on world literature, cinema, poetry, theater, painting, caricature, philosophy and history, all of which are gathered in this book in a creative way.During the early hours of 15 March 2020, his brother Reza Farnoud discovered him dead at his home in Tabriz, South-Azerbaijan/Iran.
