Dispelling the Darkness of the Halberdier’s Treatise
The Second Empire
This essay proposes a new framework to study the history of the Ottoman Empire in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by focusing on the transformation of Ottoman political structures in the seventeenth century. It offers a summary of Ottoman political history up to the sixteenth century, underlines the socioeconomic transformation of the late sixteenth century and its impact on politics, and argues that the rebellions and depositions of the…
The Ottoman Mevali as 'lords of the law
This article argues that in the late-sixteenth and the early-seventeenth centuries the high-ranking Ottoman judges and professors of law, the mevali (sing. mevla, lord), came to constitute a privileged social group, a nobility of sorts, whose members could pass on their social status to their sons. It discusses briefly the legitimizing and legal-administrative functions of the ulema, or scholar-jurists, which provided them with invaluable leverag…

This article tackles the question of why an attempt to uncover an indigenous history of limited government in the early modern Ottoman Empire has not been undertaken in twentieth-century Turkish historiography despite the obvious existence of several constituents for such a history, such as the political power and prestige of jurists (ulema), the political role of the janissary corps, and the many depositions and other revolts that they staged in…

In 1585-8, the Ottoman silver currency, the akçe, was officially devalued by 100% against the Venetian gold ducat and foreign silver currencies, and its silver content was reduced by 44%. Some scholars have interpreted this devaluation and debasement as a consequence of the silver influx from the Americas, whereas others have referred to the difficulties that the Ottoman state had to face in financing its war effort against the Safavids in Persia…
"The history of a "primary source
A short chronicle by a former janissary called Tûghî on the regicide of the Ottoman Sultan Osman II in 1622 had a definitive impact on seventeenth-century Ottoman historiography in terms of the way in which this regicide was recounted. This study examines the formation of Tûghî's chronicle and shows how within the course of the year following the regicide, Tûghî's initial attitude, which recognized the collective responsibility of the military ca…
