The Safavid World brings together thirty chapters on many aspects
of the complex Safavid state, 1501-1722. With the latest insights
and arguments, some offer overviews of the period or topic at hand,
and others present new interpretations of old questions based on
newly found sources. In addition to political history and religious
life, the chapters in this volume cover economic conditions,
commercial links and activities, social relations, and artistic
expressions. They do so in ways that stretch both the temporal and
geographical perimeters of the subject, and contributors also
examine Safavid Iran with an eye to both its Mongol and Timurid
antecedents and its long afterlife following the fall of the
dynasty. Unlike traditional scholarship which tended to view the
country as unique, sui generis, and barely affected by the outside
world, The Safavid World situates Iran in a wider, regional or
global context. Examining the Safavids from their foundations in
the fourteenth century to their relations with the rest of the
world in the eighteenth century, this study is essential reading
for undergraduates, postgraduates, and scholars of the Safavid
world and the history and culture of Iran and the Middle East.
