Description

After summarizing the formation of the Ottoman Empire during its classical period, Donald Quataert, a distinguished Ottoman historian and close associate of Halil İnalcık, focuses his study on its later period, from the 18th to the 20th century.

His interest is not monopolized, as is usual, by the political and military history of the Ottoman state, but also extends to the economic and social history woven around the "civil society." Thus, in addition to forms of governance and methods of conducting internal and external policies, demographics, agriculture, craftsmanship, trade, transportation, and popular culture are examined and interrelated, while particular emphasis is placed on critical issues of gender relations, identity, and minorities.

Moreover, this study, which opens by examining the position of the Ottoman Empire in European and world history, closes by tracing its legacy in the regions that once belonged to it. The volume includes rare images, genealogical and chronological maps, and thematic bibliographic guides.

    A book that not only lacks an objective perspective on the history of the Ottoman Empire but goes as far as to question the genocide of the Pontians and Armenians, characterizing them as controversial. In order to justify Turkish atrocities, it constantly presents examples of violence from the side of Greeks against Turks. The author even argues that the majority of Ottoman subjects did not seek autonomy but rather wished to remain within the framework of the Ottoman state!

    Excellent book, very useful and essential manual for those interested in the period of the Ottoman Empire, as it covers the period from the beginning of the Ottoman state to the end of the golden age of the empire, while also containing an analysis of the main institutions of the state.
