List of speeches given by Bahram Beyzai
This is a list of Bahram Beyzai's speeches.
Among other occupations, throughout his career Beyzai has been a relatively prolific speaker as an academic as well as a public intellectual. Most of his notable oral output consists of Persian lectures at a number of universities, most often in Iran and the United States, but also occasionally in countries as various as France, Scotland and Canada. The majority of these is lost forever, sometimes only surviving in names and dates of the events or classes. Some are available as voice recordings, either published in print as well, like "On the Situation of Theatre and Cinema", or not; and some, particularly in the later years of Beyzai's career, are published as videos.
Beyzai has had very few television and radio appearances. Nevertheless, his picture is preserved in some documentaries where he has been interviewed either about his work or else.
