(Refer to the page image) Waqf-namas (Endowment Deeds), the most important sources of Iran's social history Interview with: Dr. Nobuaki Kondo Japanese historian and Iranologist Effort by: Omid Rezaei Mirath-e Javidan: Tonight is Friday, dated 1383/05/32. Mirath-e Javidan: How do you assess the current situation in Iran in terms of attention and use of endowment documents? Dr. Kondo: Of course, Werner's work is very good, and no one in the field of Iran's social history has presented work as good as this. Mirath-e Javidan: What position does Iranian Waqf hold in seminars outside of Iran? Of course, before them, there had been discussions about Waqf, but since many documents were not available to researchers, it naturally had a significant negative impact on the articles and their quality. Dr. Kondo: Everything I have written in these past few years has been related to Waqf and endowment documents. Mirath-e Javidan: Now please tell us, what position do you assign to the list of Iran's endowment documents? Dr. Kondo: Of course, if we had a complete list like the list of Iran's endowment documents (Fars and Kerman), it would be very easy to find out what a certain person or family has done in this field. Mirath-e Javidan: Tell us about the Persian Documents Workshop and its outcome, which is the collection of articles in the book Parsian Documents, three of whose articles are about Waqf in Iran and Central Asia. Mirath-e Javidan: What position will Waqf hold in this work of yours?
