Parviz Natel-Khanlari belongs to the philosophical record as a figure whose arguments outlasted the disputes that prompted them.
The record lists Parviz Natel-Khanlari as Iranian scholar (1914-1990).
Parviz Natel-Khanlari was born at Tehran in 1914. His recorded nationality is Pahlavi Iran. He studied at University of Tehran and University of Paris.
Around the turn of the twentieth century philosophy split into traditions that largely stopped reading one another.
His academic posts were held at Uppsala University and University of Tehran.
Philosophy advances by objection: an argument matters if serious people spend years attacking it.
That the work was done from Pahlavi Iran matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Parviz Natel-Khanlari died in 1990, aged 76. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
