Iran Shenasi also spelled as "Iranshinasi" (Persian: ایران شناسی) is an academic journal of Iranian studies. The founding editor-in-chief is Jalal Matini. The journal is published in Persian (with English abstracts) and covers Iranian history, Persian culture, and Persian literature. The majority of research libraries in the world that have a Middle Eastern or Iranian studies program are subscribers and it is considered as one of the most authoritative journals on the culture of Iran and Persian literature.
Iranshenasi has sometimes dedicated an entire issue to the remembrance of scholars and artists. Special issues on Parviz Natel-Khanlari, Zabihollah Safa, Ferdowsi, Nizami Ganjavi, Mehrdad Bahar, and Richard N. Frye are examples of these issues.
