Research book “Armenia in Sassanid Era,” written by historian and freelance writer Parviz Hossein-Talaee has been released by Amir Kabir publications.
The Persian book is in 158 pages and presents vivid descriptions of Sassanian Armenia, also known as Persian Armenia or Persarmenia (252-646 AD), IBNA reported on its Persian website.
Hossein-Talaee specializes in territorial and ideological integrity of the Arsacid (Parthian), Sassanid and Byzantine empires, as well as ancient Armenia, Antioch and nomad tribes. For his book he spent several years exploring Armenian, Persian and Roman sources and documents on the ancient land.
The book contains three chapters. The first is a brief review of Armenia before it came under the suzerainty of the Sassanid Empire. Role of Armenia in Roman-Iranian relations is the subject of the second chapter; and the third discusses the role and significance of Armenia for Sassanid and Roman empires.
