Jean Aubin (1927-1998), historien specialiste de l'Iran pre-moderne et

de l'histoire des Portugais dans l'Ocean indien, a ete directeur

d'etudes a l'Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes et a l'Ecole des Hautes

Etudes en Sciences Sociales. Ses travaux sur la dominiation des Ilkhans,

sur l'acculturation des elites turco-mongoles, sur les reseaux

caravaniers, sur les routes et sur la litterature hagiographique ont

fait date et ont connu une large diffusion. Ils ont fait avancer la

reflexion historique sur des societes mal connues. Le style de Jean

Aubin leur redonnait la vie, notamment en geographie historique, son

domaine d'excellence. Cependant ses publications, parues dans des revues

tres diverses, sont devenues difficiles d'acces. Ce volume rassemble des

articles publies depuis une soixantaine d'annees, qui illustrent

l'aspect pionnier des reflexions de Jean Aubin sur des thematiques alors

peu etudiees par les specialistes de l'Iran.
La premiere partie du

recueil traite du rapport entre les reseaux routiers et les activites

commerciales, ainsi que de l'importance strategique des voies de

communication dans les periodes de conflits. La deuxieme partie eclaire

le role des elites religieuses et culturelles lorsque l'Iran etait sous

la domination de pouvoirs d'origine nomade. Les troisieme et quatrieme

parties concernent les Ilkhans: articles sur l'Azerbaidjan mongol, sur

les questions d'acculturation, sur l'effondrement de l'empire et enfin

l'emergence de l'Etat des Sarbadars au Khorassan.

Jean Aubin

(1927-1998), historian specialist of pre-modern Iran and of the history

of the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean, was Research Professor at Ecole

Pratique des Hautes Etudes and at the School of Advances Studies in

Social Sciences (EHESS, Paris). His work on the Ilkhan domination, on

the acculturation of the Turkic-Mongolian elites, on caravan roads and

networks, on hagiographic literature were widely spread. They have

strongly helped advance historical thinking on poorly known societies.

Jean Aubin’s style gave the latter new life, in historical geography

especially, his field of excellence. However, his publications,

dispersed in a large variety of journals, have often become of difficult

access. This volume brings together articles published for about sixty

years, which illustrate the pioneering aspect of Jean Aubin’s

reflections on themes not much studied at that time by the specialists

of Iran.
The first part of the compendium deals with the

relationship between road networks and commercial activities, as well as

with the strategic importance of communication channels in times of

conflict. The second part sheds light on the role of religious and

cultural elites when Iran was under domination of powers of nomadic

origin. The third and fourth parts concern the Ilkhans, with articles on

Mongolian Azerbaijan, questions of acculturation and the collapse of the

empire and on the emergence of the State of the Sarbadars in Khorassan.
