Krátky popis
The Ottoman Empire has long been depicted as the Islamic-Asian
antithesis of the Christian-European West. But the reality was
starkly different: the Ottomans' multiethnic, multilingual, and
multireligious domain reached deep into Europe's heart. In their
breadth and versatility, the Ottoman rulers saw themselves as the
new Romans.Recounting the Ottomans' remarkable rise from a frontier
principality to a world empire, Marc David Baer traces their debts
to their Turkish, Mongolian, Islamic and Byzantine heritage, how
they used both religious toleration and conversion to integrate
conquered peoples, and how, in the nineteenth century, they
embraced exclusivity, leading to ethnic cleansing, genocide, and
the dynasty's demise after the First World War. Upending Western
concepts of the Renaissance, the Age of Exploration, the
Reformation, this account challenges our understandings of
sexuality, orientalism and genocide. Radically retelling their
remarkable story, The Ottomans is a magisterial portrait of a
dynastic power, and the first to truly capture its
cross-fertilisation between East and West.
