Agricultural Reform and Agrarian Change in North-western Anatolia (1830–1860)
Among various topics, the çiftlikization process led by the propertied class and its consequences have been scrutinized as the most visible symptoms of the breakdown from a self-sufficient rural economy, the commercialization of agriculture and agrarian change in most parts of the Ottoman Empire. In this study, we argue that rather than privileging one form of production such as small peasant agriculture over çiftlik -style estates, the Ottoman s…
Yusuf Atılgan’ın Canistan Romanında Bağlam Odaklı Deyimlerin Farsça Çevirisinde Eşdeğerlik İncelemesi
Atasözü ve deyim gibi kalıplaşmış ifadelerin çevirisi, yalnızca dilsel değil aynı zamanda kültürel bir aktarım süreci olması bakımından çeviribilimin karmaşık alanlarından birini oluşturmaktadır. Diller ve kültürler arasındaki yapısal ve anlamsal farklılıklar, bu tür kalıp ifadelerin erek dile aktarılmasında çeşitli zorluklar doğurmaktadır. Özellikle kaynak kültüre özgü mecazların, hedef kültürde birebir karşılık bulamaması veya okuyucuda aynı ça…
Janissaries and Urban Notables in Local Politics: Struggle for Power and Factional Strife in the Late Eighteenth-Century Anatolian Town of Adana
The transformations that occurred in the Ottoman Empire in the eighteenth century, summarized by one author as more army, more taxes, more bureaucracy, and more state intrusion in the Ottoman provinces, radically changed provincial life in the Ottoman domains. Growing tax and manpower demands not only increased socio-economic pressure on the provinces but also redefined the sultan’s relationship with local authorities. Accompanied by the increasi…
Labor Migration from Kruševo: Mobility, Ottoman Transformation, and the Balkan Highlands in the 19th Century
Although mountainous regions remained relatively isolated and almost untouched by the Ottoman rule, labor migration connected the inhabitants of these regions to the socioeconomic and political processes in the Ottoman Empire and beyond. Kruševo, a highland village located in present-day North Macedonia, provides an excellent case for understanding these connections. This paper presents systematic evidence from the Ottoman archives to document an…
Politics, Economy, and Çiftliks: The History of Four Çiftliks in Larissa (Yenişehir-i Fener)
The Ottoman state authorities tried to prevent çiftlik formation in all parts of the empire. Yet, they also tried to keep this valuable and cash/kind-producing economic commodity under strict surveillance. The tax-farming and confiscation systems served as two important mechanisms of state control and ensured the state’s redistributive/reallocative role. Having the right to confiscate and redistribute estates, as well as being the ultimate decisi…
Peasantry in a Well-protected Domain: Wallachian Peasantry and Muslim Çiftlik / Kışlaks under the Ottoman Rule
Focusing on the relationship between the Porte, Wallachian peasants and the Danubian military notables, this study explores the nature of large-estate formation in Wallachia during the eighteenth century, and the aggressive policies pursued by the Ottoman imperial centre in the Danube region to halt the spread of animal farms (kışlaks) and large estates (çiftliks). In Balkan scholarship, there is a widely shared assumption that the Porte acted as…
The ‘Louis XVI of the Turks’: The Character of an Ottoman Sultan
Selim III ruled the Ottoman Empire in the Age of Revolutions, but his rule did not reflect the vigorous, expansionist and aggressive spirit of this age. He more resembled a ruler forced to defend his empire from the turbulence of the age, an effort which also shaped his character and perception of rulership. During his years in royal confinement, he clung passionately to the revival of the warrior-sultan through charismatic leadership. While on t…
