The Art and Material Culture of Iranian Shiism

Conference - Abstracts/Biographies

7 - 8 July 2006
Maison Française d'Oxford, University of Oxford, 2-10 Norham Road, Oxford OX2 6SE

This conference aims to bring together historians, art historians, anthropologists and folklorists, in order to try and identify what is specifically Shiite in the art and material culture of Iran. The conference will cover Iran from earliest Islamic times until the 21st century, but expects to focus on four main periods, Safavid, Qajar, Pahlavi and post-Revolutionary Iran.
