Bilge Kültür Sanat Safeviler Devrinde İran

Product description

"The Safavids, who deeply influenced the history of Iran, first appeared on the stage of history as a sect and then in the political arena.

At the very beginning of the 16th century, under the leadership of Shah Ismail, they achieved their ultimate goal and laid the foundations of a state based on the Shiism of the Twelve Imams in Tabriz.

Thanks to the dynamism of the Qizilbash army, they won great victories in a short period of ten years and dominated almost all of Iran.

They turned the sectarian structure of Iran in their favor.

However, they suffered their greatest defeat at the Battle of Chaldiran against the Ottomans.

Despite experiencing great turmoil during the reign of Shah Tahmasb, they further strengthened the state.

With Shah Abbas, they reached their political, social, economic and cultural peak.

With the Afghan invasion of the capital Isfahan, they were politically destroyed.

You will read the extraordinary story of the Safavids, who left deep traces in world history, from the pen of Roger Savory, one of the competent writers of this period.

This work has been published in more than thirty editions in Iran and has become one of the cult works on the Safavids.

century, the policies of Shah Abbas that brought the Safavid State to the peak of its power and wealth, the decline in the second half of the 17th
