Peerless among Princes
The Last Muslim Conquest
Enlightening Europe on Islam and the Ottomans
Appeal to the Turk
This study of requests by western European Christians directed principally to the Ottomans for intervention in their affairs aims to demonstrate that one cannot judge the past by following the ‘official line’ (p. 11) of the period. The era in question is from the conquest of Istanbul by the Ottomans in 1453 until the Ottoman naval defeat at the battle of Lepanto in 1571. Giovanni Ricci chooses this period because the Ottomans were then believed t…
H. Erdem Çıpa. The Making of Selim
In The Making of Selim: Succession, Legitimacy, and Memory in the Early Modern Ottoman World, H. Erdem Çıpa analyzes aspects of the succession, reign, and historiography surrounding Selim I (r. 1512–1520). Çıpa notes that there are no scholarly biographies of Selim in any language except Turkish and that the “Turkish-language studies remain wanting at best” (15). Çıpa’s monograph is not a biography of Selim covering his reign; however, he treats …
Writing the Ottomans
Kaya Şahin. Empire and Power in the Reign of Süleyman
Empire and Power in the Reign of Süleyman: Narrating the Sixteenth-Century Ottoman World analyzes the early- to mid-sixteenth-century Ottoman Empire through a careful reading of the works of Celalzade Mustafa (ca. 1490–1567), long serving chancellor during Süleyman's reign (r. 1520–1566). Kaya Şahin introduces his study by explaining why Celalzade's life deserves close analysis and by placing the Ottoman Empire in its early modern Eurasian contex…
Diyar-ı Rum’da Korsanlara da Yer Var mıydı
This paper analyzes the “Ottomanness” of five prominent seafarers, mainly relying on contemporary narrative sources, some of which are autobiographical in nature. First, Kemal Reis and his nephew Piri Reis sailed the Mediterranean as corsairs before entering Ottoman service during the reign of Bayezid II. Piri Reis eventually became Mısır Kapudanı with responsibilities in the Indian Ocean in 1547. Seydi Ali Reis was appointed Mısır Kapudanı after…

Royal French Women in the Ottoman Sultans' Harem
The Ottoman sultans' harem has provided fertile ground for the invention of tales that have been incorporated into the historical tradition. The purported presence of royal French women in the harem has been used for political purposes since the sixteenth century. These tales fall into two groups: myths about a fictional fifteenth-century French princess and fantasies concerning Nakshidil, a nineteenth-century valide sultan who some authors claim…
Shifting Identities
This essay compares the use of "foreign" state servants in the early-modern kingdom of France and the Ottoman Empire. In both realms, identity was understood as a matter of loyalty not to a defined territory but rather to a dynasty; hence service to the dynasty offered a ready path for assimilation. For a contemporary Ottoman historian, "the inhabitants of Rum" were a people of diverse origins, often descended from converts to Islam. For French j…
