Enderunlu Fâzıl’ın Bütün Eserleri
Yaşadıklarıyla, maceralarıyla, yaptıkları ve yazdıklarıyla divan edebiyatının yaramaz çocuğu Enderunlu Fâzıl, nevi şahsına münhasır bir şairdir. Maceralı ve sıkıntılı hayatına rağmen geride Dîvân, Hûbân-nâme, Zenân-nâme, Çengî-nâme, Defter-i Aşk ve Sûr-nâme-i Şehriyâr adlarında altı eser bırakmıştır. Aykırı kişiliği, eserlerinin muhtevası, mahalli unsurları eserlerine ustaca yansıtması, özellikle de eserlerinde doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak yer yer kullandığı argo ve müstehcen ifadeler, yerli yabancı birçok araştırmacının dikkatini çekmiş bu ve benzeri nedenlerle günümüze kadar Enderunlu Fâzıl ve eserleri üzerine muhtelif çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Elinizdeki bu kitap, Osmanlı edebiyatı ile Osmanlının sosyal hayatına önemli katkılarda bulunacak ve üzerinde bilinçli veya bilinçsiz çokça şey söylenen Enderunlu Fâzıl’ın hayatı, edebî kişiliği ve eserleri ile ilgili birçok yanlışa ışık tutacaktır.
Scientific Instruments between East and West
Scientific Instruments between East and West is a collection of essays on aspects of the transmission of knowledge about scientific instruments and the trade in such instruments between the Eastern and Western worlds, particularly from Europe to the Ottoman Empire. The contributors, from a variety of countries, draw on original Arabic and Ottoman Turkish manuscripts and other archival sources and publications dating from the fifteenth to the twentieth centuries not previously studied for their relevance to the history of scientific instruments. This little-studied topic in the history of science was the subject of the 35th Scientific Instrument Symposium held in Istanbul in September 2016, where the original versions of these essays were delivered. Contributors are Mahdi Abdeljaouad, Pierre Ageron, Hamid Bohloul, Patrice Bret, Gaye Danışan, Feza Günergun, Meltem Kocaman, Richard L. Kremer, Janet Laidla, Panagiotis Lazos, David Pantalony, Atilla Polat, Bernd Scholze, Konstantinos Skordoulis, Seyyed Hadi Tabatabaei, Anthony Turner, Hasan Umut, and George Vlahakis.

The Persianate World
At publication date, a free ebook version of this title will be available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Persian is one of the great lingua francas of world history. Yet despite its recognition as a shared language across the Islamic world and beyond, its scope, impact, and mechanisms remain underexplored. A world historical inquiry into pre-modern cosmopolitanism, The Persianate World traces the reach and limits of Persian as a Eurasian language in a comprehensive survey of its geographical, literary, and social frontiers. From Siberia to Southeast Asia, and between London and Beijing, this book shows how Persian gained, maintained, and finally surrendered its status to imperial and vernacular competitors. Fourteen essays trace Persian’s interactions with Bengali, Chinese, Turkic, Punjabi, and other languages to identify the forces that extended “Persographia,” the domain of written Persian. Spanning the ages expansion and contraction, The Persianate World offers a critical survey of both the supports and constraints of one of history’s key languages of global exchange.
God's Unruly Friends
The definitive appraisal of dervish piety, tracing the history of the different dervish groups that roamed Asia, the Middle East and Southeast Europe.
Crime and Punishment in Istanbul
This vividly detailed revisionist history exposes the underworld of the largest metropolis of the early modern Mediterranean and through it the entire fabric of a complex, multicultural society. Fariba Zarinebaf maps the history of crime and punishment in Istanbul over more than one hundred years, considering transgressions such as riots, prostitution, theft, and murder and at the same time tracing how the state controlled and punished its unruly population. Taking us through the city's streets, workshops, and houses, she gives voice to ordinary people—the man accused of stealing, the woman accused of prostitution, and the vagabond expelled from the city. She finds that Istanbul in this period remains mischaracterized—in part by the sensational and exotic accounts of European travelers who portrayed it as the embodiment of Ottoman decline, rife with decadence, sin, and disease. Linking the history of crime and punishment to the dramatic political, economic, and social transformations that occurred in the eighteenth century, Zarinebaf finds in fact that Istanbul had much more in common with other emerging modern cities in Europe, and even in America.
The Rise of Fiscal States
Leading economic historians present a groundbreaking series of country case studies exploring the formation of fiscal states in Eurasia.
Sea Change
Textiles were the second-most-traded commodity in all of world history, preceded only by grain. In the Ottoman Empire in particular, the sale and exchange of silks, cottons, and woolens generated an immense amount of revenue and touched every level of society, from rural women tending silkworms to pashas flaunting layers of watered camlet to merchants traveling to Mecca and beyond. Sea Change offers the first comprehensive history of the Ottoman textile sector, arguing that the trade's enduring success resulted from its openness to expertise and objects from far-flung locations. Amanda Phillips skillfully marries art history with social and economic history, integrating formal analysis of various textiles into wider discussions of how trade, technology, and migration impacted the production and consumption of textiles in the Mediterranean from around 1400 to 1800. Surveying a vast network of textile topographies that stretched from India to Italy and from Egypt to Iran, Sea Change illuminates often neglected aspects of material culture, showcasing the objects' ability to tell new kinds of stories.
