Slaves of the Shah - New Elites of Safavid Iran

Zusammenfassung The Safavid dynasty represented the pinnacle of Iran's power and influence in its early modern history. Safavid success depended on an elite from outside Iran: the slaves of Caucasian descent and the Armenian merchants of Isfahan. This book describes how these elites helped to transform Isfahan's urban, artistic and social landscape.
