Assessing its place in Turkic, Islamic and world history, this course aims to provide students with an understanding of what history is, why we study Ottoman history and the legacies of the past in the present. Topics include pre-Ottoman Anatolia, emergence of the Ottomans, institutionalization of power, land regime, slave system, Ottoman law, Ottoman economic mind and trade and intercommunal relations.
