An Inquiry Into The Meaning Of Place In The Architectural Aesthetics Of The Tabriz Historical Bazaar Based On A Cultural Studies Approach

The Tabriz Historic Bazaar Complex demonstrates how traditional architectural elements can sustain a unified identity through the continuity of meaning within its aesthetic structure. This study reveals that the bazaar's spatial poetics, when aligned with cultural studies principles, fosters stability in attachment and adapts to social needs, ensuring both physical sustainability and global endurance. The research employs an interpretive-historical method and qualitative analysis, cross-referencing findings with historical documentation to validate its hermeneutic approach. By addressing the imperatives of cultural studies, this model bridges spatio-temporal ruptures in urban environments, offering a framework for the preservation of architectural heritage.
