Iran and the Caucasus Founder and Editor-in-Chief - Garnik Asatrian. Associate editors: Victo

"Iran and the Caucasus" (Brill, Leiden-Boston) is sn academic journal with the main focus on the history, linguistics and culture or Irano-Caucasian and wider - Near Eastern region. Edited by Garnik Asatrian

Iran and the Caucasus, as of volume 6 published by Brill, is a peer-reviewed multi-disciplinary journal. Published in three issues per year, the Journal promotes original, innovative, and meticulous research on the history (ancient, mediaeval and modern), culture, anthropology, literature (textology), folklore, linguistics, archaeology, politics, and economy of the region. Accepting articles in English, French and German, Iran and the Caucasus publishes lengthy monographic essays on path-breaking research, synoptic essays that inform about the field and region, as well as book reviews that highlight and analyse important new publications. Iran and the Caucasus is edited under the guidance of an editorial board consisting of scholars from the region itself, as well as from Europe and the United States. It is therefore unique in being a scholarly forum in the truest sense of the word on a region of growing importance, and a treasure-trove of information otherwise hard to get at. Iran and the Caucasus is supported by the Caucasian Center for Iranian Studies in Yerevan, Armenia. Submission

We extend a cordial invitation to scholars worldwide to contribute to this academic gathering by submitting papers that critically engage with the journalโ€™s legacy, present original research consonant with its thematic scope, and articulate new analytical perspectives on the regionโ€™s historical trajectories, contemporary dynamics, and future perspectives.
