Abstract

The expansion of the relationship between Iran and Europe since the end of the Qajar period and especially after the constitutional revolution, caused Europeans to pay attention and even interest in Iran, and as a result, there was an increase in visits to Iran. One of the consequences of this flow was the expansion of Iranian Studies in the West and the writing of important scientific works in this field. The works made interested Iranians make more efforts to carry out very rare research about Iran and Iranian studies. Mohammad Qazvini is one of the most important of these enthusiasts who has a decisive role and contribution to the evolution of Iranology knowledge in Iran and the West. His long and arduous journey to the West, in addition to showing the Iranian culture and civilization to the Europeans, has had a two-way impact on the personalities of Western Iranologists and his attitude. Therefore, he can be considered the beginning of a revolution in Iranian Studies in the West. Therefore, this research aims to, apart from expressing the importance of Mohammad Qazvini in this trend, deal with his relationship with the most important Iranologists of that time and his influence on modern scientific and research works and methods and their transfer to Iran.
