Reconsidering Peroz's Generalship at the Battle of Mery (484): Lessons learned or lessons missed?
(Society for Military History, 2026) Theotokis, Georgios
The Sassanids engaged in a series of conflicts with the Hephthalites between 474 and 484; the most significant culminated at the Battle of Merv in 484 with the death of King Peroz I on the field of battle, plunging the Sassanid Empire into a protracted political crisis. This paper reconsiders Peroz's generalship and the tactics at the Battle of Merv, focusing on the use of the battlefield trench by the Hephthalite Huns. By building up a picture of how accurate our primary sources are in their description of the battlefield and how detailed are the accounts about the preparations for the battle by the Hephthalite troops, it explains King Peroz's decision to ignore lessons from previous battles against steppe armies and order a full-scale charge against the Hephthalite army.

Mere container or object of intrinsic value? A leather wallet on diplomatic mission in the Ottoman–Habsburg wars
(Taylor and Francis, 2026) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
This chapter focuses on an Ottoman wallet sent in 1685 by the Ottoman governor of Buda, Abdurrahman Abdi Pasha, to Margrave Hermann of Baden. It shows how this particular object opens up new perspectives on the material culture of diplomatic documents and their containers, which to date have not attracted the attention they deserve. Whereas the Ottoman sultans used to insert their letters to foreign rulers in embroidered silk bags, Abdurrahman Abdi Pasha chose a costly decorated leather wallet as an Ottoman artefact that a European elite figure of the time was likely to appreciate. Thereby, Abdurrahman Abdi Pasha probably tried to create an atmosphere favourable to his own political agenda. Evidently, in an early phase of the conflagration known to European historians as the Great Turkish War (1683–99), the Ottoman governor hoped to start peace talks at the sub-imperial level with a general of the Habsburg Empire. As the present chapter highlights, governors in the Ottoman-Habsburg borderlands enjoyed considerable autonomy in the pursuit of their own political goals.
A network analytic framework for subjective indicators of attentional control: Exploring unique associations and directed pathways
(Elsevier, 2026) Mahmut Önalan, Kübra; Balaban, Gülşah; Saylık, Rahmi
Subjective indicators of attentional control, the Attentional Control Scale (ACS; comprising attentional focusing and shifting) and the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ/CFQ 2.0), are related but considered to capture distinct manifestations. However, how these indicators relate to one another and to related constructs when considered simultaneously remains unclear. Using a network analytic framework, we examined these subjective indicators within a broader context of related constructs, including psychological distress (depression, anxiety, and stress) and empathy (cognitive and affective) in 592 participants. We estimated a Gaussian Graphical Model (GGM) and a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) to examine unique associations and potential pathways. In the GGM, cognitive failures related to both attentional focusing and shifting, but each showed distinct associations. Cognitive failures were associated with anxiety. Attentional focusing was associated with stress and affective empathy, whereas attentional shifting was associated with depression, cognitive empathy, and affective empathy. The DAG suggested three potential pathways. One linked anxiety to attentional focusing and shifting through cognitive failures; the other two linked empathy to the ACS dimensions, with cognitive empathy linked to attentional shifting and affective empathy to attentional focusing through stress. Considered together, these indicators were related but showed distinct patterns of association with psychological distress and empathy.
