笔记
'The map shows Tehran within the walls built by Shah Tahmasb in 1515 and restored by Aqa Mohammad Shah Qajar on his accession. It represents the traditional city, where the main social elements, court, Tojjar (merchants), Asnaf (artisans) and Ulama (clergy) are reflected in the structure of the city in the Ark or citadel, Bazar and Mosque' (Alemi)
Tehran covered a mere four square kilometers at the time plan was drawn in 1859, and housed a population of only 100,000. The city would later, in the 1870s under the rule of Nasir al-Din Shah, be substantially remodelled along European lines, most notably to echo that of Paris, which the Shah was said to have fallen in love with.
The plan was part of the rapid Europeanisation that would transform Tehran over the next fifty years. It was produced in the Dar-ol Fonum - the polytechnic school, founded along western lines in 1851 - under the supervision of an Austrian artillery officer, Major August Kriziz, who had taken up a teaching post at the school. He was aided in his endeavour by Qajar prince Ali Quli Mirza I'tizad al-Saltana and two of his students, Zulfiqar Beg and Muhammad Taqi Khan Shakir, who helped him access places which would have been forbidden to a European. The text that surrounds the plan gives details about Tehran's precise location, duration of the longest and shortest days, altitude in 'French meters', average temperature, and acceleration of gravity.
