Tarikh e Qarabagh

The Tarikh-e Qarabagh ("History of Qarabagh") was a book written by Jamal Javanshir Qarabaghi sometime after 1847 about the history of the Qarabagh (Karabakh) region. Written in Persian — the literary language of the Muslims in the Caucasus — and on the order of the Russian head of the Caucasus Viceroyalty Mikhail Semyonovich Vorontsov (in office; 1844–1854), the book covers the history of the Qarabagh region, from the arrival of the Arabs through the Muslim conquest of Iran in the 7th century, up to including the conquest of it by Imperial Russia through the Russo-Persian War of 1804-1813. The focus of the book primarily lays on the Karabakh Khanate from Nader Shah's era (r. 1736–1747), until the death of Ibrahim Khalil Khan (d. 1806). Furthermore, a section of the work is also dedicated to the struggle between the khans from the Javanshir clan and the Armenian Meliks of Karabakh.

Although written in Persian, the work of Mirza Jamal Javanshir (1773/4-1853) is actually a product of Azeri historiography.
