The Persian Heritage Foundation was
established through the efforts of Professor Yarshater in 1983 to conduct and
carry out research on all aspects (including, without limitation, educational,
cultural, historical, demographic and ethnic) of Iranian, Islamic,
Indo-Iranian, Central Asiatic and Perso-Judaic studies and, either alone or in
combination with another or other organizations, to publish, disseminate and
distribute and help others to publish, disseminate, and distribute the results
of such research; to provide gifts, funding etc. to deserving students,
researchers, institutions and organizations for further study in this area;
to facilitate the continuation of the publication of the Encyclopaedia Iranica and the Bibliotheca Persica Series.
Currently, the Foundation offers Grants in Aid of Publication. These grants are awarded annually by the Persian Heritage Foundation and
administered jointly by the Center for Iranian Studies and the Society for
Iranian Studies for the publication of scholarly works in Iranian studies, or
translations of works of merit from Persian into English, French or
German.
These grants are specifically to
enable a completed manuscript to be published.
They are not for for scholarships, works in progress or research.
