Analysis of the Indexes of Local Historiography of Khurāsān in the Contemporary Era

Journal Title: تاریخ و فرهنگ - Year 2014, Vol 46, Issue 92

Abstract

In this article, the indexes of local historiography of Khurāsān in the contemporary era are examined. These indexes are explained in three components of the historian, the subject, and the publication. The quantity statistics and quality analysis are used in order to explain the components. The compiled statistics are prepared by library and archive method and on the basis of the information available in bibliographical databases and bibliographies. The importance of this research is that the local historiography of Khrāsān in the contemporary era has not been addressed so far with the explained components and only thematic monographies concerning books and some of the political and social topics have received attention. The research findings indicate that three factors of Astan Quds Razavi, Mashhad, and the historical identity of Khurāsān along with some events such as the Islamic Revolution and the imposed war have had direct impacts on the defined indexes.
