OTTOMANIA 9
A Cooperation with the
Pontificio Comitato di Scienze Storiche
This book brings together twenty-one
essays by scholars from ten different
countries who address the issue of
the expansion and presence of the
Ottoman Turks in Eastern Europe and
the Balkans from the fourteenth to the
twentieth century. This phenomenon
is analysed from an interdisciplinary
approach and with a view to diachronic
research covering three general areas
of investigation: institutional history,
military history, and cultural history.
Particular attention is paid to military
strategies and the development of the
so-called “art of war” between the
Ottoman Empire and Western powers.
Emphasis has also been placed on the
history of the formation of the “image
of the Turk” in artistic, literary, and
philosophical terms, and on how this
image has changed over the centuries.
