This Editorial Essay introduces the importance and need for the research collected in this Special Issue. Beginning with a definition of ‘Persianate’, the space that the Mughals occupied within this geo-cultural sphere is discussed. As an integral part of not only the existing early modern-era Persianate world, but as inheritors of its cultural memory, the Mughals had an invested stake in projecting this aspect of their heritage. Architecture was one of the means through which they did this. Moving away from the normative classification of the Mughals as being a ‘South Asian’ entity, the exploration of new avenues of research in Mughal-Persianate architectural connections in Resituating Mughal Architecture in the Persianate World: New Investigations and Analyses is introduced. It is seen that the studies in this volume include research on relationships between Persian philosophy and Mughal built spaces; between the architecture and architectural decoration of the Mughals and the Safavids; and on the role poetry can play in evoking cultural memory through architectural representations. Focusing on specific topics that exemplify the shared cultural heritage of the Mughals within the Persianate world, this volume highlights that avenues for studying this topic are ongoing, still necessary and extremely viable.

在波斯世界重新定位莫卧儿建筑:新的调查和分析

这篇社论文章介绍了本特刊中收集的研究的重要性和必要性。从“波斯人”的定义开始,讨论了莫卧儿人在这个地理文化领域所占据的空间。莫卧儿人不仅是现代早期波斯世界的一个组成部分,而且作为其文化记忆的继承者,在投射其遗产的这一方面方面投入了大量资金。建筑是他们做到这一点的手段之一。摆脱将莫卧儿人作为“南亚”实体的规范分类,介绍了在波斯世界中重新定位莫卧儿建筑:新调查和分析中对莫卧儿-波斯建筑联系的新研究途径的探索。可以看出,本卷的研究包括对波斯哲学与莫卧儿建筑空间关系的研究;在莫卧儿王朝和萨法维王朝的建筑和建筑装饰之间;以及诗歌在通过建筑表现唤起文化记忆方面的作用。本卷重点关注体现波斯世界内莫卧儿人共同文化遗产的特定主题,强调研究该主题的途径仍在继续、仍然必要且极其可行。
