AB  - A series of 12 talks by Nader Saiedi exploring Bahá'í history, key writings, and the need for scholarly study, translation, and contextual analysis of Bahá'í texts.
N1  - Original audio recording, which includes 11 out of the 12 talks, are at soundcloud.com/bahai-blog/sets/nader-saiedi-text-and-context. Talk #12 can be found at Saiedi's own website. See also partial transcript of Talk #5.  Notes:  - Only talk number 4 has bad recording quality, please skip if you can't follow anymore.  - In talk number 10, at 1 hour and 32 minutes, Dr. Saiedi mentions a definition of a Bahá'í by 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This appears to be a text from Shoghi Effendi in Persian, online at https://reference.bahai.org/fa/t/c/GTB/gtb-18.html#pg8 (personal communication, A.B.).
