This document summarizes a study on the effect of identity concepts on the physical features of modern Iranian cities with consideration of culture. The study used an analytical research approach to examine identity and culture and their impact. The results showed that a city's identity is intrinsic and affects its physical characteristics. Over time, a city will be influenced by the culture of its people, and enhancing beauty and quality can occur when this cultural perspective emerges alongside awareness in the city. Consequently, cities can develop distinct physical images and identities to distinguish themselves from other cities.
Program of the 2017 Yarshater Lectures in Persian Art by Robert McChesney, SO...Encyclopaedia Iranica
The first lecture will introduce the phenomenon of shrines in Central Asian history and then focus on a shrine at Balkh and the way society’s needs shaped its different legacies. The second lecture considers the ways in which a shrine could encourage formaƟ on of an individual tradition of exclusive claim to the shrine and its material benefits and how that tradion on led to the formation of a new city. The third lecture suggests how the meaning of a building conceived to commemorate the glory of an individual and his descendants could be reshaped to legitimize new ideologies and the final lecture considers the sacred space created by a holy artefact and the ways in which its community exploited that space. All the lectures will link the ever-changing architecture to the societal contexts.

A Comparative Philosophical Study on Modern and Traditional TechnologiesIJMTST Journal
By a review on the history of science, philosophy and art from the ancient times to the modern world,
human beings always preserved their connection with intellectus and metaphysics before modern history
(tradition period)and they looked at the existence as the nature of the creature of God. The human of
tradition periodthrough the connection tointellectus as well as the help of reasonuses the technology that
is in line with the laws of nature and in the service of human. This connection gradually fadeduntil this
connection, due to many pressures that the church brought to the people, reached its lowest extent or even
disappeared in the middle ages (in West) or even sooner. Human of modern history, only by the help of
reason, began to develop and build in the universe.Therefore, the thought of executive technology is
influenced by the philosophy of modernism and is formed based on the reason and Rationalism. The
present research will examine and analyze in order to consider thecomparative and philosophical
activities of modern and traditional technologies by focusing on philosophical and infrastructure
issues.The analytical-comparative method and library tools are used in the present study.

Abstract
Art in the twentieth century has been innovated and evolved more than previous centuries. So as in
contemporary art, the artist's individual influence has surpassed the influence artist's work and the artist is
the focus of attention, whereas in the old art, the artist's work was influential and also the artist's works
were formed based on peoples tastes. But today, by focusing on the artist, people's tastes have been
pushed aside and the artist's feeling has been emerged. Absence of art work in interior building creates
contradiction with human who favors art. The created space should have artistic features or could place
art works inside to the best of manifestation in order to be able to interact with cognitive ability of human.
This point can also be insisted on that nature inventory of interior space is designed for human and
without interior space; the building appears like a great statue. Art movements formed in recent decades
have caused that new needs will be felt whether for displaying works in a particular environment or
integrating the space and art work; in a wider environment, the created interior space can be looked at as
an art work in the prevailing art movements.

Architecture is one of the ways to know the value of many concepts, especially
those that propel human to spiritual ideals. Considering the human position in
universe at one side which is construed as identity, is a Controversial issue in Iran
contemporary architecture and at the other side because of lots of new issues,
mostly cultural problems, it has undergone fundamental changes.
So we have tried to study concepts of identity and culture in different
approaches with an Analytical-research approach, and then their effect on cities’
physical features. The result shows that city’s identity is indigenous with effects on
its physical features. The city will be influenced by its people’s culture over time,
and when this cultural perspective along with awareness outcrops in city, The
enhance of beauty and quality can be considered. As a result, cities can with specific
physical image and identities are distinct from other cities.
