Лекция «Владимир Иванов: пионер в изучении исмаилитских рукописей» / Татьяна Корнеева

The Center for Oriental Literature held the third lecture by orientalist Tatyana Korneeva in the series "Ismailism and the Ismailis: A History of Rise and Fall." On June 19, 1970, the great Russian orientalist and Iranologist Vladimir Alekseevich Ivanov (1886-1970) passed away in Tehran. The lecture commemorates this memorable date, and attendees will learn how Vladimir Ivanov revealed the true Ismailis to the world. The discussion will cover both his scholarly work and his daily life in India, where he spent most of his extremely eventful life. It was in India that the Ismaili imams resided from the mid-19th century.
