Cultural Iran

Cultural Iran brings together writers, scholars, and artists from Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and beyond to illuminate the idea of Iran as a shared cultural realm. Through essays, interviews, and reflections on language, identity, migration, cinema, and heritage, the volume maps the diverse yet interconnected world of Persianate culture. Its contributors examine the forces that have shaped this civilizational domain and the figures who have sustained a cultural world that transcends political borders.
