Senses and Pleasures of Urban Experience: A Journey Through Seventeenth-Century Isfahan
Early modern Isfahan was a cosmopolitan city that offered a staggering array of pleasures to its visitors and inhabitants. This talk examines the city’s topography of leisure through the lens of the “Guide for Strolling in Isfahan,” a lyrical literary composition penned in the mid-seventeenth century. Following a one-day excursion in the Safavid capital, this talk explores how seventeenth-century Isfahan—with its social establishments, bustling markets, and material artifacts—gave rise to new urban experiences, especially for the privileged young men of Safavid times.
