Refocusing Central Asia

Inaugural Lecture delivered on Thursday 7 November 2013

Frantz Grenet,

About this book

The notion of Central Asia emerged at a late stage, replacing that of "Tartary", often associated with the Mongol Terror, in 1825 only. Two twentieth-century archaeological currents profoundly contributed to the revival of studies on this region: the French school led by the Délégation archéologique française en Afghanistan, and the Soviet school characterized by large multidisciplinary expeditions. The rediscovery of the region's two main languages, Sogdian and Bactrian, has significantly furthered research on this cultural area encompassing Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan and Afghanistan.
