Research output: Contribution to journalBook/Arts/Article review

Abstract

During the Ilkhanid period (1260-1335 or 1353), the areas under Mongol rule--including present-day Iran, Azerbaijan, and eastern Anatolia--underwent far-reaching and consequential transformations. These changes are evinced both in the breaking up of earlier patterns and imposition and rise of new formations, which would continue to shape the eastern Islamic world, particularly in Iran, in the centuries to come, as well as in the acceleration and reinforcement of earlier processes, especially since the eleventh-century Seljuk invasions.
