| Research Abstract |
Making Iran in the broad sense (or Persianate region) rather thanIran as a present nation-state the research object, this project aimed to inquire into how‘modernity' originating from the West was encountered, represented and absorbed in Iran, with a sense like being in the locus in quo. As a result of the investigation, I could elucidate the actual roles played by the Muslim scholar-officers from Iranian family backgrounds and the realities of adoption of the Western modernity by the diplomatic representatives and students delegated from Iran.
