Bureaucrat and Intellectual in the Ottoman Empire
Mustafa Ali was the foremost historian of the sixteenth-century Ottoman Empire. Most modern scholars of the Ottoman period have focused on economic and institutional issues, but this study uses Ali and his works as the basis for analyzing the nature of intellectual and social life in a formative period of the Ottoman Empire. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

The Revolution of 1908 in Turkey
This is a detailed account and an excellent narrative history of the often neglected period 1906-1908 in Turkey, in which the prelude and aftermath of the revolution and elections of 1908 took place. The year 1908 opened a new era of representative government and the social and political developments leading to the overthrow of the ancien régime are carefully and fascinatingly given. Historians and general readers will find The Revolution of 1908 in Turkey a thought-provoking book, which will resound in the discussion of the validity of Kemalist or quasi-Kemalist historiography and therefore provide a major contribution to the field.
My Passion, My Job
Ketika idealisme cita-cita dan impian semasa SMA dibawa ke realita kehidupan di bangku kuliah bukan dunia kerja, apakah tetap sama dan berjalan sebagaimana mestinya? Atau malah asa baru yang menyeruak dan memantik kobaran api semangat sesungguhnya? Sebuah semangat yang membuat kita semakin prodiktif dan tak lelah untuk berjuang di dalamnya. Ya, itulah passion. Para penulis adalah alumni SMA Negeri 1 Kertosono lintas angkatan. Meraka memiliki passion yang tinggi di bidang yang digeluti saat ini. Buku ini ditulis demi menyambut gayung dari adik-adik atas terbitnya buku “The Power of Putih Abu-Abu” yang seolah mempertanyakan bagaimana perjuangan selepas SMA menjelang yang nyatanya lebih banyak rintangan dan tak akan usai selama hayat dikandung badan. Semoga kisah-kisah dalam buku ini dapat menginspirasi, bahwa idealisme pekerjaan tak terbatas hanya dari yang orang awam sanjungkan. Asal ada passion di dalam diri kita, akan ada bintang di sana. Asal ada restu orangtua dan doa yang menggema, akan ada surga di dunia. Asal kita ikuti suratan takdir Tuhan, maka hidup akan bahagia.
Fiqih Tamkin
Pengkajian kata Tamkin dibandingkan kata Empowerment atau Pemberdayaan bukan tanpa alasan. Kajian konsep tentang Tamkin (pemberdayaan) di dalam buku ini berkesimpulan bahwa penggunaan kata Tamkin lebih tepat dan epistemik (what we know and how we know) diandingkan kata Empowerment atau Pemberdayaan. Jika berhenti pada kerangka “what we know” (definisi), kata Tamkin, Pemberdayaan dan Empowerment mungkin masih bisa dikaitkan satu sama lain. Namun jika ditingkatkan pada pertanyaan “how we know” (apa dan bagaimana melakukan pemerdayaan) dalam kerangka epistemologis, maka dua kata yang disebut terakhir lemah dari sisi kerangka paradigmatiknya. Sementara kata Tamkin memiliki akar kata kuat dalam Al-Quran dan secara praktis dicontohkan oleh Rasulullah sang pembawa risalah melalui fase Mekkah dan fase Madinah. Apa itu Tamkin dan bagaimana cara kerja Tamkin itu berproses serta relevansinya dengan konsep Modal Sosial (Social Capital) dan Khairu Ummah bisa “berguru” kepada Al-Quran maupun sunnah Rasulullah Shallallahu alaihi wasallam melalui buku ini yang dibahas dengan pendekatan akademis dan praktis.

Essays on Turkish Literature and History
In Essays on Turkish Literature and History Barbara Flemming makes available essays partly previously published in German. They offer insights gained through decades of scholarship. Although the Ottoman period is central, a wide range is covered, including an early Turkish principality, Mamluk and Ottoman Egypt, and contemporary southeastern Turkey. The essays look into historical and political factors involved in the preoccupation with the world’s ending, into Muslim-Christian dialogue, the sultan’s prayer before battle, and the bilingualism of poets. Of particular interest are the sections on female participation in mysticism, on an anti-Sufi movement in Cairo, on the Ottoman capital’s appeal to collectors and emigrants (Diez, Süssheim, Böhlau), and on the far-reaching effects of alphabet change.
Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations (2 vols.)
Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations: Sources from the Ottoman Archives, is a product of meticulous study of İsmail Hakkı Kadı, A.C.S. Peacock and other contributors on historical documents from the Ottoman archives. The work contains documents in Ottoman-Turkish, Malay, Arabic, French, English, Tausug, Burmese and Thai languages, each introduced by an expert in the language and history of the related country. The work contains documents hitherto unknown to historians as well as others that have been unearthed before but remained confined to the use of limited scholars who had access to the Ottoman archives. The resources published in this study show that the Ottoman Empire was an active actor within the context of Southeast Asian experience with Western colonialism. The fact that the extensive literature on this experience made limited use of Ottoman source materials indicates the crucial importance of this publication for future innovative research in the field. Contributors are: Giancarlo Casale, Annabel Teh Gallop, Rıfat Günalan, Patricia Herbert, Jana Igunma, Midori Kawashima, Abraham Sakili and Michael Talbot
