The Sasanian Era, Vol. 3

This latest volume in The Idea of Iran series concentrates on the Sasanian period. Engaging with all the major aspects of Sasanian culture, twelve eminent scholars address subjects which include: early Sasanian art and iconography; early Sasanian coinage; religion and identity in the Sasanian empire; later Sasanian orality and literacy; and state and society in late antique Iran. The volume in question arguably comprises the most complete and comprehensive treatment of the Sasanian civilization yet to be published in English.Curtis, Vesta Sarkhosh is the author of 'The Sasanian Era, Vol. 3', published 2008 under ISBN 9781845116903 and ISBN 1845116909.
