Abstract
This new volume in the series Eurasiatica. Quaderni di Studi su Balcani, Anatolia, Iran, Caucasus and Central Asia by Edizioni Ca' Foscari of Venice collects several articles devoted to Armenia, Caucasus and Central Asia. The articles in the volume range from archaeology to literature, from folklore to history, from the history of Eastern Christianity to art, from travel narratives to urban planning. An entire section is devoted to Ossetian studies, which are of great interest not only in the Caucasian and Iranian spheres, but also in Russian history and culture.
