Iran and a French Empire of Trade examines the understudied topic of Franco-Persian relations in the eighteenth century to highlight how rising tensions among Eurasian empires and revolutions in the Atlantic world were intertwined. Organized as a collection of microhistories, it showcases a colourful set of characters to demonstrate how individuals on the fringes of French society spearheaded projects to foster ties between France and Persia. And it uncovers surprising ways in which Enlightenment debates about Persia shaped French ideas about revolution and policies related to empire-building.
