Table of ContentsReviews“Emami’s approach to Isfahan considers this imperial city as a total lifeworld filled with movement, smells, sounds, and people. His prose is simply superb: it is such a pleasure that it transforms an otherwise deeply researched scholarly study into a spirited page-turner.” —Christiane Gruber,author of The Praiseworthy One: The Prophet Muhammad in Islamic Texts and Images “Farshid Emami’s ambitious study of one of the most celebrated cities of the Islamic world sheds new light on Isfahan’s urban transformation in the early modern period and reconstructs the way urban dwellers experienced and perceived the city, not only as a work of architecture but as a living space. Essential reading for all those interested in the global history of early modernity, urbanism, and visuality.” —Heghnar Watenpaugh,author of The Image of an Ottoman City and The Missing Pages “Emami’s approach to Isfahan considers this imperial city as a total lifeworld filled with movement, smells, sounds, and people.
