MoreLong description:
Celebrating the scholarly legacy of István Vásáry, the volume discusses the interaction of Turkic and Mongol pastoral societies with sedentary Islamic cultures in Iran and Central Asia, as well as the development of the resultant Turko-Persian culture in the medieval and early modern periods. The essays present this through a whole range of topics, such as Mongol and post-Mongol political culture, relations between the Mings of China and the Timurids of Central Asia and Iran, Central Asian weaponry, the vocabulary of pandemics and drinking culture in Turkic, Turkic ethnonyms, the structure of the aristocracy in the Crimean khanate, Sufi connections between Turkish Anatolia and the Golden Horde, literary multilingualism in Turkic, Persian, and Arabic, Central Asian epics, as well as Iranian scribal practices.
