The science of Iran did not take a place, which would be supposed to, and the Iranian world we know superficially. As if a large blanket was thrown over him, through which only individual lights shine through: Suzi, Persepolis, Samarkand, Herat, Isfahan, Shiraz, Miniatures, Poems ... All these lights should have sparkled, they would suppose to be as bright as it is bright as it is bright The incomparable blue of the Iranian sky, like the vast deserts of Iran made of golden sand, like its naked mountains, like its theology of light, like the vaults of its temples, lined with azure tiles, like his Isfahan roses, like his poets with their inimitable simplicity. For us, he blurred in the heterogeneous accumulation of Islamic countries, although he shows a strong personality there.
At the same time, the history of Iran is closely related to world history. It is necessary to know it to any historian, any educated person. How can one read and understand the Bible, not knowing about Babylonian captivity and about the liberation decree of Kira, the “anointed of Yahweh”, according to the second-Isai? How can you study the history of Greece, ignoring the Persian wars, Herodotus born to Iranian subjects, Alexander and its conquest of the world? Who will leave indifferently the arrival of magicians, Iranian kings of the Rogues, to the cradle of Christ? Who would dare to forget how fundamental to the Roman Empire had a long struggle with the Parthians and Sassanids? How would we perceive the Indians if we did not know that Indian Islam, at least partially, arose under the influence of Iranian? But did the courteous love of our beautiful Middle Ages originated in the country of Cathars, to which the echoes of what was happening in the valleys of Mesopotamia reached? Similar, questions can be multiplied to infinity
