Abstract

Mahendrarajah has focused attention on Herat in its heyday under the Kart dynasty whose achievements, though recognized, have not received the attention and research they deserve. Mahendrarajah's study of Herat under Kartid rule views the Ilkhanate from a fresh and unexpected angle. Mahendrarajah's book has been written from the viewpoint of Herat and the emphasis is on events from the perspective of the city's Kart rulers. [Extracted from the article]
