2009New English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English. [xxxi], 415 p., ills. Salih Ozbaran focuses on a subject which has not been studied fully and accurately so far, i.e., the Ottoman expansion towards the Indian Ocean including the imperial conquests, organizations, exploitation of southern Arab lands and coastal African ports. He also examines the confrontations with native rulers, their communal organizations and the Portuguese seaborne forces in the 16th century. Ozbaran comes to the following should not be regarded as a 'linear process of development'; they did not practice the fief (timar) system in the southern provinces, but the method of tax-farming (iltizam) was developed in which yearly and quarterly paid officals and soldiers played an important role. He also empasizes that the Ottomans were not fully organized in keeping the permanent seamen and naval organizations in the provinces facing the Indian Ocean although they had strongholds in towns and in country firtresses with support of firearms.

2003Fine English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 13 cm). In Turkish. 357 p. Cumhuriyet döneminde Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi. Türkiye'nin Cumhuriyet tarihi boyunca tabu addettigi konularin basinda gelen azinliklar konusu, özellikle doksanli yillarla birlikte Türkiyeli arastirmacilarin gündeminde eskisine oranla daha agirlikli bir yere sahip oldu. Genelde hâkim konumda olan ve defansif/milliyetçi kaygilarla konuyu ele alip, ideolojik bir karsi durusu korumaya çalisanlarin yanisira, yeni kaynaklara, yeni yaklasimlara kapi açan arastirmalar da var. Elçin Macar'in bu çalismasi, sadece "netameli" sayilmis bir konu olarak Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi'nin Cumhuriyet tarihi içindeki serüvenini dile getirmekle kalmiyor; konunun hiçbir derinligi olmadan, günlük iç ve dis siyasî çekismelerle sinirli olarak ele alinis tarzini terk etmeyi öneren bir derinligi de tasiyor. Macar, bu kitabiyla iki milliyetçilik arasinda sikismis, ötekilesmis, ideolojik açidan suistimal edilmis bir kurum olan Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi'ne, hem teorik hem de metodolojik açidan bugüne kadar egemen olan anlayistan farkli bir yaklasim getirmeyi amaçliyor ve yitirilmis dinsel çesitliligin yakin tarihteki izlerini sürüyor.

Byzantine manuscripts in Bucharest's collections.= Manuscrise bizantine în colectii bucurestene. Project coordinator: Ileana Stanculescu. From the first article: "From the photographs taken over time, we chose those which best capture a special artistic quality with their strictly documentary value. This selection of manuscripts ends before the dawn of the 16th century, given the common view that after the fall of Constantinople (1453) we can no longer speak of a truly Byzantine culture, but only of a Byzantine style, albeit one which continued to shine. The selection of images was also intended to emphasize not only the aesthetics of the illuminated folios, but also those details that are significant for the codices as a whole, things which would dryly translate today as typeface font type, page layout and binding. Far from the sight of all interested parties, the Byzantine manuscripts in the Bucharest repositories are still full of mysteries waiting to be discovered and explained by researchers. We present these images here to provide a platform for a wider discussion of the significance of the Byzantine legacy for Romanian pre-modern culture. For the identification and description of the items chosen we used several catalogues, either manuscript or in print, which we then compared with the corresponding labels used by the repositories. The bibliography at the end of the volume indicates the various catalogues used for each collection. We found a wealth of details pertaining to the manuscript collections of the Romanian Patriarchy in the album published by the archimandrite Policarp. This is an excellent occasion to thank the specialists involved in the inventory of the collection for the additional information they supplied. We extend our warmest gratitude to them.Here and there we updated and corrected the information found in the aforementioned sources in the light of recent research: the dating of ms. sl. II 280, from the Library of the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church at the Antim Monastery. We thank Mrs Tatiana Popova (University of St. Petersburg in Severodvinsk), for the observation that we are dealing with a direct copy, made at the end of the 14th century, of the Russian metropolitan Kyprian's reworking (dated 1385) of the Ladder of John Climax. Ms. sl. II 280 belongs to a group of manuscripts kept at Antim Monastery, but originates from a collection in Slava Rusa, a settlement in Dobrogea and a known...".

2008New English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English. [xii], 151 p., color and b/w ills. The historic hammams of Bursa. The aim of the book you are about to read is to provide detailed information about the history of hammam culture in the city of Bursa, which is famous for its hot springs and hammams, and about the "public hammams" built in the Ottoman period. In order to create in the minds of readers an image of the "Turkish Hammam" in all its aspects it describes the tradition of bathing in the context of history as a whole and the emergence of the hammam phenomenon, the architectural and historical characteristics of the Ottoman hammam, the importance of the hammam tradition in Turkish culture and its place in social life. The book contains a review of the present state of the hammams of Bursa and the reasons for their decline. Proposals have been made as to how these structures could be better integrated into modern life.
