Pilgrims and Sultans: The Hajj Under the Ottomans
ISBN: 9781780767710 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The pilgrimage to Mecca - the hajj - is a major aspect of the Islamic religion, yet little has been written about its history or of the conditions under which thousands of pilgrims from far flung regions of the Islamic world traveled to the heart of the Arabian peninsula. This pioneering book concentrates on the pilgrimage in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, when Mecca was ruled by the Ottoman sultans. At a time when, for the majority of the faithful, the journey was long, arduous and fraught with danger, the provision of food, water, shelter and protection for pilgrims presented a...

The Ottoman Empire and the World Around It
ISBN: 9781845111229 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Islamic law the world was made up of the House of Islam and the House of War with the Ottoman Sultan--the perceived successor to the Caliphs--supreme ruler of the Islamic world. However, Suraiya Faroqhi demonstrates that there was no iron curtain between the Ottoman and other worlds but rather a long-established network of diplomatic, financial, cultural and religious connections. These extended to the empires of Asia and the modern states of Europe. Faroqhi's book is based on a huge study of original and early modern sources, including diplomatic records, travel and geographical writing,...

Men of Modest Substance: House Owners and House Property in Seventeenth-Century Ankara and Kayseri
ISBN: 9780521522557 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This is a study of two contrasting towns in Anatolia in the seventeenth century. As house ownership was widespread, data concerning value, description, location and ownership of dwellings constitute a valid manner of approaching urban society as a whole. Through her use of documents from the kadi registers of Ankara and Kayseri, Dr Faroqui follows changes in patterns of house ownership over approximately a century. The urban society thus revealed differs from the patterns generally associated with the 'Islamic city' model. Townsmen often bought real estate without selecting a quarter...

Volume 3 of The Cambridge History of Turkey traces the history of the later Ottoman Empire from the death of Mehmed III in 1603 to the proclamation of the tanzimat, the administrative reconstruction of the Ottoman state, in 1839. This was a period of relative stability when trade between the empire and Europe flourished and, wartime apart, merchants and pilgrims travelled in relative security. However, despite the emphasis on the sultan's role as defender of the faithful and of social order, tensions did exist between the ruling elite in Istanbul and their provincial subjects. This theme is...

The Ottoman and Mughal Empires: Social History in the Early Modern World
ISBN: 9781788313667 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For many years, Ottomanist historians have been accustomed to study the Ottoman Empire and/or its constituent regions as entities insulated from the outside world, except when it came to `campaigns and conquests' on the one hand, and `incorporation into the European-dominated world economy' on the other. However, now many scholars have come to accept that the Ottoman Empire was one of the - not very numerous - long-lived `world empires' that have emerged in history. This comparative social history compares the Ottoman to the another of the great world empires, that of the Mughals in the...

Living the Good Life: Consumption in the Qing and Ottoman Empires of the Eighteenth Century
ISBN: 9789004349384 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 574 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Eighteenth-century consumers of the Qing and Ottoman empires had access to an increasingly diverse array of goods, from home furnishings to fashionable clothes and new foodstuffs. While this tendency was of shorter duration and intensity in the Ottoman world, some urbanites of the sultans’ realm did enjoy silks, coffee, and Chinese porcelain. By contrast, a vibrant consumer culture flourished in Qing China, where many consumers flaunted their fur coats and indulged in gourmet dining. Living the Good Life explores how goods furthered the expansion of social networks, alliance-building...
