[Raphaela Lewis] sketches the history of the Ottoman dynasty and shows how it fell heir to the Eastern Roman Empire and made its capital in the city of Constantine the Great, renamed Istanbul. She then describes the administrative structure of the Empire, with its extraordinary system of recruitment whereby membership of the civil and military establishment was in principle confined to the Sultan's Christian-born slaves. The dominant faith of the Empire was Islam, and there is a full account of its duties and practices, which moulded the life of the Turk...The author also takes us inside the great imperial mosques, the thronged and colourful bazaars, schoolrooms, palaces and private houses and takes us down fascinating byways, showing how the Sultan's cannon were cast, how children prayed for rain, how the people passed the nights of Ramadan, and how important a social occasion for women were the weekly visits to the hammam, the public baths...Lewis has not neglected life in Anatolia and the non-Turkish provinces, and she has also provided a glossary of Turkish terms used in the book. -- Dust jacket.

This book provides a general overview of the daily life in a vast empire which contained numerous ethnic, linguistic, and religious communities. The Ottoman Empire was an Islamic imperial monarchy that existed for over 600 years. At the height of its power in the 16th and 17th centuries, it encompassed three continents and served as the core of global interactions between the east and the west. And while the Empire was defeated after World War I and dissolved in 1920, the far-reaching effects and influences of the Ottoman Empire are still clearly visible in today's world cultures. Daily Life in the Ottoman Empire allows readers to gain critical insight into the pluralistic social and cultural history of an empire that ruled a vast region extending from Budapest in Hungary to Mecca in Arabia. Each chapter presents an in-depth analysis of a particular aspect of daily life in the Ottoman Empire.

During war time, the everyday experiences of ordinary people - and especially women - are frequently obscured by elite military and social analysis. In this pioneering study, Elif Mahir Metinsoy focuses on the lives of ordinary Muslim women living in the Ottoman Empire during the First World War. It reveals not only their wartime problems, but also those of everyday life on the Ottoman home front. It questions the existing literature's excessive focus on the Ottoman middle-class, using new archive sources such as women's petitions to extend the scope of Ottoman-Turkish women's history. Free from academic jargon, and supported by original illustrations and maps, it will appeal to researchers of gender history, Middle Eastern and social history. By showing women's resistance to war mobilization, wartime work life and the everyday struggles which shaped state politics, Mahir Metinsoy allows readers to draw intriguing comparisons between the past and the current events of today's Middle East.

"Delving into personal letters, court documents, wills, correspondence with Sufi masters and the travel records of seafarers and traders, Faroqhi has identified a broad range of areas where individuals were able to create a flourishing and vibrant urban civilization, even while politically the Empire was beginning its relentless decline. By presenting a new vision of Ottoman cultural history, Subjects of the Sultan fills a huge gap and will fascinate not only historians of the Middle East but also social historians, students and discerning readers interested in history."--BOOK JACKET.
