{"product_id":"a-year-amongst-the-persians-edward-granville-browne-9781107600591","title":"A Year Amongst the Persians","description":"Edward Granville Browne (1862-1926) was a British orientalist renowned for his work on Persia. In this volume, published by Cambridge in 1926 as a new edition of the 1893 original, he recounts his impressions of Persian culture following a twelve-month stay in the area during the years 1887-8. The new edition contains an introductory memoir written by Edward Denison Ross, another orientalist and a close friend of the author for more than forty years. Transcending the colonialist ideals of the time in which it was written, the text provides a lively and thought-provoking narrative that is based upon a genuine fascination with Persia and its people. This is an important book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in orientalism, travel writing, and Persian culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edward Granville Browne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107600596\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107600591\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/29\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 680\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.36d","brand":"Edward Granville Browne","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46838276227327,"sku":"9781107600591","price":73.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d2735fd2-24b3-4f37-977b-8c92dec5fce6.jpg?v=1746589330","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-year-amongst-the-persians-edward-granville-browne-9781107600591","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
