This 1953 encyclopedic volume is a fundamental work of Soviet Iranian studies, representing the second, significantly improved edition of Boris Miller's monumental dictionary. Boris Fyodorovich Miller (1877–1956), a distinguished specialist in Iranian philology and a professor at Moscow State University, dedicated his career to the systematic study of the Persian language. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the Persian lexicon, including the arrangement of approximately 35,000 entries that cover classical literary vocabulary, modern socio-political terminology, and essential idioms. A critical addition to this edition is the comprehensive grammatical sketch by V. S. Rastorguyeva, which provides the structural framework necessary for mastering the nuances of Persian syntax and morphology.
Spanning 668 pages, the dictionary was produced by the State Publishing House of Foreign and National Dictionaries during a period of intense academic exchange between the Soviet Union and the Middle East. Its encyclopedic format and robust hardcover were designed for intensive professional use by linguists, diplomats, and translators. The 1953 edition is noted for its precision in phonetic transcription and its inclusion of updated neologisms that appeared in the mid-20th century. For bibliophiles, orientalists, and collectors of academic lexicons, this Moscow imprint is a vital primary source, documenting the high standards of Soviet lexicography and the enduring legacy of the Russian school of Iranian linguistics.
