    The material world of early modern Ottoman women: Ornaments, robes and domestic furnishings in Istanbul and Bursa
    (Brill, 2021) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    The present article investigates the jewelry and domestic furnishings owned by wealthy women who died in Bursa during the early 1730s, combining the data derived from the estate inventories of the decedents with imagery, both Ottoman and non-Ottoman, dating to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This tentative linkage between the written and the visual has made it possible to 'zoom in' on the manner in which well-to-do females of eighteenth-century Bursa decorated their homes, and speculate about the considerations that induced them to use the most valuable textiles largely for home furnishings as opposed to garments.

    An Ottoman gentleman observing İzmir at a time of change: Evliya Çelebi on the Road, 1670-1
    (İzmir Katip Çelebi Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2022) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; Gökçe, Turan; Çalış, Hüseyin; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    Izmir was the ‘mushroom city’ of the seventeenth-century Ottoman world: while a small town in the late 1500s, by the end of the seventeenth century, the city may have been home to nearly 90,000 people. If realistic, this figure would mean that by the late 1600s, Izmir probably surpassed Bursa and belonged to the major cities of the empire. This increase is even more remarkable as the Ottoman central authorities certainly did not promote migration into the cities: on the other hand, before the mid-twentieth century newcomers from the countryside probably were a condition sine qua non for rapid urban growth. Ever since the 1990s, historians have tried to identify the reasons for Izmir’s dramatic expansion.

    Ottoman artisans in a changing political context: Debates in historiography
    (Brill, 2021) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    Historians have interpreted the relationship between Ottoman artisans and sultan governance in two contrasting ways. Some believe that, by definition, the sultan represented the interests of the Islamic community and even, to some extent, those of his subjects at large. Others assume that, although the Islamic legitimacy of sultans was never in doubt, artisans could nonetheless develop initiatives of their own, including participation in rebellions when their livelihoods were under threat. While adhering to the second option, the author discusses why artisans thought that compliance with officialdom was the royal road to success, and why, such conformity notwithstanding, Ottoman guilds often defended the interests of master craftsmen with reasonable success. Since artisans legitimized their strivings for private gain through constant reference to the sultan, they had little reason to limit the ruler’s power. When soldiers and associated artisans acted to depose Selim III in 1807, they did so because his policies threatened their livelihoods, and not because they wanted broader participation in policy decisions, or because they blindly upheld a ‘traditional’ system. The fall of Selim III (1807) thus differed fundamentally from what had happened in France in 1789.

    Aziz Nesin about himself and his parents: Poor people in Istanbul during the late Ottoman period
    (Cambridge University Press, 2021) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    A resolute modernist and socialist, Aziz Nesin (1915–95) was definitely an author of the republican period. Born Mehmet Nusret to poor parents, both migrants to Istanbul from the Black Sea coast, he adopted Nesin as his legal surname when surnames became obligatory in 1934. By the 1950s, his satirical short stories and plays had made him famous, but he faced political difficulties for much of his life; likely, it did not endear him to the authorities that he used his experiences with the police as inexhaustible material for his stories. In 1966, when in his early fifties, Aziz Nesin published Böyle Gelmiş Böyle Gitmez: Otobiyografi (That is the Way He has Come, But That is Not the Way He is Leaving: An Autobiography), the first volume of what was to become a three-volume series, which he called an autobiography.1 The first volume, which is the subject of this study, has remained the most popular; it focuses on Nesin’s childhood in Istanbul during the late 1910s and throughout the 1920s, with biographies of both his father and his mother embedded in the story.2 Nesin had begun the necessary research in the 1950s, including a trip to the Black Sea village where his mother had been born. He searched for documents as well, seemingly with limited success...

    Working, marketing and consuming Ottoman copper-with a special emphasis on female involvement
    (Brill, 2021) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; Boyar, Ebru; Fleet, Kate; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    In the Ottoman context, studies dealing with metals made into objects, rather than with raw material sent to the mint, are not very common. Even personal ornaments made of precious metals have attracted only a limited amount of attention, although samples possessed by people outside the Ottoman court have survived, albeit in limited numbers. In the case of females we find ear- rings, necklaces, bracelets and jewelled headdresses, while males owned orna- mented weapons as well as horse-gear with silver inlays. Presumably, scholars have held back because it is very difficult to interpret the written documenta- tion relevant to metalwork – if it even exists. The refining of copper and the products of coppersmiths remain in limbo as well, apart from a number of catalogues describing items in public museums and private collections.

    Kanûnî Sultan Süleyman ve dönemi: Yeni kaynaklar, yeni yaklaşımlar
    (İbn Haldun Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2020) Faroqhi, Suraija Roschan; Çalışır, Muhammed Fatih; Faroqhi, Suraiya; Yılmaz, Mehmet Şakir; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    Nüvesi 26-27 Eylül 2019 tarihinde İbn Haldun Üniversitesi Süleymaniye Yerleşkesi’nde düzenlenen “II. Uluslararası Süleymaniye Sempozyumu: Kanûnî Sultan Süleyman ve Dönemi” başlıklı sempozyumda atılan elinizdeki çalışma, 1520-1566 yıllarını kapsayan kırk altı yıllık hükümdarlık dönemiyle Osmanlı tarihinde en uzun süre tahtta kalan padişah olan Kanûnî Sultan Süleyman ve saltanat dönemine odaklanmaktadır. İcra ettiği seferler, yürüttüğü siyasî ve diplomatik faaliyetler, uygulamaya koyduğu düstur ve kanunlarla Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nu on altıncı yüzyılın en etkili devletlerinden biri haline getiren Sultan I. Süleyman, Avrupalı tarihçilerce “Muhteşem,” Türk tarihçiler tarafından ise “Kanûnî” sıfatıyla anılmıştır. Tüm güç ve ihtişamına rağmen padişahın ailevî ilişkileri, askeri seferlerin halka yüklediği mâlî yükümlülükler ve dinî tartışmaların eşlik ettiği bazı sosyal buhranlar Osmanlı tarihinin bu önemli dönemini dikkatle incelemeyi gerektirir. Bu dönemde yetişen ya da bizzat padişah tarafından görevlendirilen Mimar Sinan, Ebüssuûd Efendi, Bâkî, Barbaros Hayreddin Paşa, Celâlzâde Mustafa Çelebi, Kınalızâde Ali Çelebi, Taşköprîzâde gibi isimler Osmanlı kültür ve medeniyetinin klasik ürünlerini ortaya koymuşlardır. Fas’tan Endonezya’ya uzanan geniş bir coğrafyada etkisini hissettiren ve bu coğrafyada yaşayan toplumların tarihinde kalıcı bir miras bırakan Kanûnî Sultan Süleyman ve dönemi sonraki yüzyılların siyasî literatüründe “altın çağ” söylemi üzerinden kendine yer edinmiştir. Bugüne kadar hakkında çok sayıda akademik yayın yapılan söz konusu dönemin kapsamlı bir şekilde değerlendirilebilmesi için hâlâ çok sayıda araştırmaya ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır…
