Otranto 1480
Fatih Sultan Mehmet Han’ın Kızılelma’ya giden yolda fethedilmesi emrini verdiği Otranto’nun, Gedik Ahmed Paşa komutasındaki Türkler tarafından ele geçirilmesi, Avrupa’nın en ücra köşelerinde bile büyük bir şaşkınlık ve heyecana sebep olur.

Paramilitarism in the Balkans
Paramilitarism in the Balkans is a systematic and thorough analysis of the phenomenon of paramilitary violence in the Balkans during the 'Greater War'. By analysing archival and primary source material from across the region, the phenomenon of irregular violence is traced back to its roots in the Ottoman Balkans.
Paramilitarism
From the deserts of Sudan to the jungles of Colombia, from the streets of Belfast to the mountains of Kurdistan, paramilitaries have appeared in violent conflicts. Ungor presents a comparative and global overview of paramilitarism, showing how states use it to successfully outsource mass political violence against civilians.
The Tito-Stalin Split and Yugoslavia's Military Opening Toward the West, 1950-1954
This book examines the development of relations between Yugoslavia and the United States following the Tito-Stalin split. A major focus of this study is the planning and execution of U.S. military support, in particular the direct supply of military equipment and Yugoslavia's recruitment into Western-aligned military alliances.
War in the Balkans
The history of the Balkans incorporates all the major historical themes of the 20th Century--the rise of nationalism, communism and fascism, state-sponsored genocide and urban warfare. Focusing on the centuries opening decades, War in the Balkans seeks to shed new light on the Balkan Wars through approaching each regional and ethnic conflict as a separate actor, before placing them in a wider context. Although top-down 'Great Powers' historiography is often used to describe the beginnings of the World War I, not enough attention has been paid to the events in the region in the years preceding the Archduke Ferdinand's assassination. The Balkan Wars saw the defeat of the Ottoman Empire, the end of the Bulgarian Kingdom (then one of the most powerful military countries in the region), an unprecedented hardening of Serbian nationalism, the swallowing up of Slovenes, Croats and Slovaks in a larger Balkan entity, and thus set in place the pattern of border realignments which would become familiar for much of the twentieth century.
Imagining Creation
Imagining Creation is a collection of views on creation by noted authors from different disciplines. Topics include creation accounts and iconography from Mesopotamia and Egypt, and cosmologies from India and Africa. Special attention is devoted to creation in the Scriptures (Bible and Koran) and related oral traditions on Genesis from Slavonic Europe, as well as Kabbalah. Some of the creations myths are earlier and some later than the Bible, while a number of the discussed texts offer alternative approaches to the beginnings of the universe. The contributions provide many new perspectives on the origins of man and his world from diverse cultures. The volume is the proceedings of a symposium on creation stories held at University College London.
