The Sophy
Shah Ismail Safavi emerged as the revolutionary leader of a new, Shiʻite movement in western Iran in the early years of the sixteenth century. News of his rise to power reached Western Europe almost immediately and provoked a wide range of responses: some observers hoped he would join the Christian princes of Europe in a new offensive against their common enemy, the Ottoman Turks. Others saw him as an economic and social revolutionary who brought…
Ivan Kalmar. Early Orientalism
This brief, wide-ranging book presents an intriguing thesis: that early modern “orientalists,” whether scholars, artists, poets, novelists, theologians, or philosophers, constructed an image of Islam as a religion in thrall to an absolute, despotic, and irrational God as a sublimated response to their own anxiety that the Christian God was just as remote and indifferent. Ivan Kalmar, an anthropologist, argues that in addition to Western anxieties…
Nestor Denied
Francesco Filelfo (1398–1481) was one of the most accomplished scholars of Greek and Latin in fifteenth-century Italy. He was also perpetually indigent and a tireless seeker of patronage and attention. For a variety of reasons—including personal, ideological, and political commitments—Filelfo campaigned avidly for a Latin crusade against the Ottoman Turks. He used the literary form of the familiar letter to address a series of Christian princes i…
Empires of Islam in Renaissance Historical Thought
Drawing on political oratory, diplomatic correspondence, crusade propaganda, and historical treatises, Meserve shows how research into the origins of Islamic empires sprang from—and contributed to—contemporary debates over the threat of Islamic expansion in the Mediterranean

News from Negroponte
The fall of Negroponte to the Turks in 1470 was one of the first events in European history to be recorded in print. This article examines a little-known cluster of more than a dozen texts published in the months after the colony’s fall by some of the earliest printers to work in Italy. These editions did not “break” the news to the Italian public but rather offered analysis and commentary to an already well-informed readership. Some catered to c…

From Samarkand to Scythia
The dawn of the Renaissance saw the decay of European contacts with the Far East. Western merchants, missionaries and ambassadors had travelled extensively through the countries of Asia under Mongol rule in the thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, but European relations with and knowledge about Asia diminished dramatically in the century after Marco Polo came home. Humanist geographers called Central Asia by an ancient name, Scythia, and id…
