{"product_id":"9781933823362","title":"Travels in Iran \u0026 the Caucusus","description":"This is a stimulating and informative account of an Ottoman administrator's missions to the region in the mid-seventeenth century. Evliya Chelebi's travelogue is not simply a diplomatic report, but rather a fascinating exploration of the religious, ethnic, artistic, and even culinary peculiarities of the region. In addition, it offers a fresh perspective on relations between the Ottomans and the Safavids during a period of relative calm in an otherwise stormy relationship. For the first time, the Iranian and Caucus sections of Chelebi's Siyahat-nameh have been translated from the original Turkish manuscript into English in their most complete form. As such, this book is a unique resource not only for scholars of Safavid Iran but also for those interested in the seventeenth century Middle East in general.","brand":"Mage Publishers Inc (US)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65441511670109,"sku":null,"price":31.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781933823362.jpg?v=1789103083","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781933823362","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
