On the basis of new evidence from the Ottoman archives in Istanbul, Karl Barbir challenges the current interpretation of Ottoman rule in Damascus during the eighteenth century.

This discovery, he contends, affords a more balanced and realistic view of the Near East's Ottoman past than previous studies have suggested.
