ANCIENT AND BYZANTINE TURKEY
THE SACRED ARCHITECTURE OF BYZANTIUM
A SHORT HISTORY OF THE BYZANTINE EMPIRE Dionysios Stathakopoulos
Art,LiturgyandSymbolismin Early Christian Churches Nicholas N. Patricios
King’s College, University of London
University of Miami
The churches of the Byzantine era were built to represent heaven on earth: architecture, art and liturgy were intertwined in them to a degree that has never been replicated elsewhere. Patricios offers a comprehensive survey of the nexus between buildings, worship and art. His identification of seven distinct Byzantine church types, will have considerable appeal to Byzantinists. Beyond categorising and describing the churches themselves, which are richly illustrated with photographs, plans and diagrams, the author interprets the sacred liturgy that took place within these holy buildings. Focusing on buildings in 22 different locations, this sumptuous book is an essential guide to individual features and the wider significance of Byzantine art and architecture. 384 PAGES 246 X 189MM 2014 9781780762913 HARDBACK £45.00 / $75.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES

The Byzantine Empire was one of the most impressive imperial adventures in history. Stathakopoulos here tells a compelling story of military conquest, alliance and reversal, including the terrifying secret weapon of ‘Greek fire’. His new short history is above all a narrative of individuals: of powerful rulers like Justinian I, who recovered Italy from the Vandals and oversaw construction of Hagia Sofia (completed in 537); of his notorious queen Theodora, a courtesan who rose improbably to the highest office of imperial first lady; of the charismatic but cuckolded general Belisarius; and of the religious leaders Arius and Athanasius, whose conflicting ideas about Christ and doctrine shook the Empire to its core. 192 PAGES 216 X 134MM 2014 9781780761930 HARDBACK £77.00 / $120.00 9781780761947 PAPERBACK £10.99 / $15.95

Under Seljuk rule (c. 1081-1308) the formerly Christian Byzantine territories of Anatolia were transformed by the development of Muslim culture, society and politics, and it was then that a Turkish population became firmly established in these lands. But these developments are little understood, and the Seljuk dynasty remains little studied. This volume examines Seljuk culture and history by looking at developments both at court and in society at large, and sheds new light on Seljuk political culture and dynastic ideology, the engagement of politics with religion, and Christian-Muslim interaction. ‘This impressive scholarly volume opens up several new lines of research into the turbulent and little-known history of Seljuk Anatolia.’ – Professor Charles Melville, University of Cambridge 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM MAY 2015 9781848858879 HARDBACK £77.00 9781784531652 PAPERBACK £17.99 LIBRARY OF MIDDLE EAST HISTORY, VOL. 38

OTTOMAN EMPIRE
STOLEN BOYS OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE NEW
NESLISHAH
NEW
The Last Ottoman Princess Murat Bardakçı. Translated by Meyzi Baran
The Child Levy as Public Spectacle and Political Instrument Charles Argo
The infamous Ottoman devsirme-the levy and enslavement of young male subjects from the Christian regions of the empire for palace and military service by the Turks-has been traditionally understood as a mechanism of both elite recruitment and Muslim conversion. Here Charles Argo investigates the political and cultural resonance of the act itself; an act that reproduced in spectacle form Ottoman ideologies of dynastic legitimacy and political hegemony amongst its Christian subjects. A fresh and original look at Ottoman history, this book changes the way we look at the exercise of power in pre-modern empires.
Twice a princess, twice exiled, Neslishah Sultan had an eventful life. She was born as an imperial princess and the granddaughter of Sultan Vahiddedin, but in 1924 the entire imperial family, including three-year-old Neslishah, were sent into exile. Sixteen years later on her marriage to Prince Abdel Moneim, the son of the last khedive of Egypt, she became a princess of the Egyptian royal family. Based on original documents and extensive personal interviews, this account of one woman’s extraordinary life is also the story of the end of two powerful dynasties thirty years apart.

ALEPPO
THE BERLIN-BAGHDAD RAILWAY AND THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE
NEW IN PAPERBACK
The Rise and Fall of Syria’s Great Merchant City Philip Mansel
Industrialization, Imperial Germany and the Middle East Murat Özyüksel Istanbul University
Aleppo lies in ruins. Its streets plunged into darkness, its population decimated. But this was once a vibrant world city, where Muslims, Christians and Jews lived and traded together in peace. Few places are as ancient and diverse as Aleppo – one of the oldest, continuously inhabited cities in the world – successively ruled by the Assyrian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Arab, Ottoman and French empires. Under the Ottomans, it became the empire’s third largest city, after Constantinople and Cairo. It was a key point on the Silk Road, where merchants gathered in the largest suq in the Middle East. Using accounts spanning 400 years, Philip Mansel vividly describes Aleppo’s decline from a pinnacle of cultural and economic power. This is a poignant testament to a city shattered by Syria’s civil war.
Railway expansion was the great industrial project of the late 19th Century. The Great Powers built railways at speed, reaping great commercial benefits. The greatest imperial dream was to connect the might of Europe to the potential riches of the Middle East and Ottoman Empire. In 1903 Imperial Germany began to construct a railway to connect Berlin to the Ottoman city of Baghdad, and project German power to the Persian Gulf. The Ottoman Emperor saw the railway as a means to bolster crumbling Ottoman control of Arabia. Using new Ottoman-Turkish sources, Özyüksel shows how the Berlin-Baghdad railway became a symbol of rising European power and declining Ottoman fortunes, marking a new and important contribution to our understanding of the geopolitics of the Middle East before World War I.

INSIDE THE SERAGLIO
TSAR AND SULTAN
Private Lives of the Sultans in Istanbul John Freely
Russian Encounters with the Ottoman Empire Victor Taki University of Alberta
This is the story of the House of Osman, the imperial dynasty that ruled the Ottoman Empire for more than seven centuries, an empire that once stretched from central Europe to North Africa and from Persia to the Adriatic. The capital of this empire was Istanbul, ancient Byzantium, a city that stands astride Europe and Asia on the Bosphorus. And it was in the great palace of Topkapi Sarayi that the sultans of this empire ruled. Inside the Seraglio – a classic of Ottoman history – takes us behind the gilded doors of the Topkapi and into the heart of the palace: the harem, where the sultan would surround himself with his wives, concubines, eunuchs, pages, dwarfs and mutes and where all the tempestuous events of empire were so often played out. This is the history of a remarkable palace in all its colour and opulence and the story of its influence on a great empire. 384 PAGES 198 X 126 MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784535353 PAPERBACK £9.99 / $18.00 TAURIS PARKE PAPERBACKS

From the 1700s, the declining Ottoman Empire served as a source of inspiration for the westernisation of Russia. Comparisons between European and Ottoman diplomacy, warfare and political organizations shaped Russian identity and provided the nation with a sense of superiority over its adversary. Tsar and Sultan offers a unique insight into Russian Orientalism as the intellectual force behind Russian-Ottoman encounters. Narratives depicting the brutal realities of Russian-Turkish military conflicts influenced the Orientalisation of the Ottoman Empire. In turn, Russian identity was built as the counterimage to the demonised Turk. This book explains the significance of Russian Orientalism on Russian identity and national policies of westernisation. Students of European History and Middle East studies will appreciate Taki’s analysis of Russian-Turkish relations and their influence on Eurasian history. 336 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JUNE 2016 9781784531843 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00
BEYOND CONSTANTINOPLE
THE OTTOMAN CITIES OF LEBANON
The Memoirs of an Ottoman Jew Victor Eskenazi
Historical Legacy and Identity in the Modern Middle East James A. Reilly University of Toronto
Victor Eskenazi, a Sephardic Jew from Constantinople, represented an ethnic and religious minority that thrived in the Ottoman Empire. The beginning of the 20th Century was a critical period in Ottoman history, which saw the end of the Empire, defeat in World War I but also a colourful influx of victorious allied armies and White Russians fleeing the Revolution, contributing to the already cosmopolitan nature of the city. Eskenazi breathed the complex air of this budding new Turkey, with its ideals, contradictions and hopes. His extraordinary memoir – which begins in Constantinople and travels across Europe during and after World War II – tells the remarkable story of a family, poignantly capturing a moment in time which now exists only in memory. 192 PAGES 198 X 126 MM APRIL 2016 9781784532666 HARDBACK £17.99 / $35.00

In a far-reaching and much-needed analysis of this complex legacy, James A. Reilly looks at Arabic-language history writing emanating from Lebanon in the post-1975 period, focusing on the three main Ottoman administrative centres of Saida, Beirut and Tripoli. This examination highlights key aspects of Lebanon’s current political and cultural climate, and emphasises important points of agreement and conflict in contemporary historical discourse. The 1989 Ta’if Accords, for example, which ended the Lebanese Civil War, were accompanied by calls for reinterpretation of how the country’s history could assist in creating a sense of national cohesion. The Ottoman Cities of Lebanon is invaluable to all historians and researchers working on Lebanese history and politics, and wider issues of identity, post-imperialist discourse and nationhood in the Middle East. 320 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JULY 2016 9781784535544 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00

This book shows how markers of wealth accumulation and poverty were socially defined across the region, and the ways wealth was experienced reveal the relationships between the state, economy, society, modernity, and national identity in the context of Balkan, Ottoman and European development. 336 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JANUARY 2016 9781784534394 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00 LIBRARY OF OTTOMAN STUDIES

The Ottoman East, compared to other peripheries of the Ottoman Empire, has received very little attention in Ottoman historiography. So-called taboo subjects such as the fate of Ottoman Armenians and the ‘Kurdish Question’ have contributed to this dearth of analysis. Discussing vital issues, such as trade routes, regional economic trends, migration patterns and the moulding of local and national identities, this book offers a unique approach to the history and politics of empire in the wider region. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JUNE 2016 9781784533885 HARDBACK £77.00 / $120.00 LIBRARY OF OTTOMAN STUDIES

THE ARCHITECTS OF OTTOMAN CONSTANTINOPLE
REMAPPING THE OTTOMAN MIDDLE EAST
Modernity, Imperial Bureaucracy and the Islamic State Cem Emrence
The Balyan Family and the History of Ottoman Architecture Alyson Wharton
University of Massachusetts
Pursuing a comparison of different regions of the empire, this book demonstrates that the Ottoman imperial universe was shaped by three distinct and simultaneous narratives: market relations in its coastal areas; imperial bureaucracy in the cities of central Anatolia, Syria and Palestine; and Islamic trust networks in the frontier regions of the Arabian Peninsula. In weaving together these localized developments, Cem Emrence suggests that a comprehensive way of understanding the late Ottoman world and its legacy should start from exploring regionally-constituted and network-based historical trajectories. Introducing a persuasive new model for understanding the late Ottoman world, this book will be essential reading for historians of the Ottoman Empire. 208 PAGES 216 X 134 MM DECEMBER 2015 9781784531614 PAPERBACK £17.99 / $29.00

Mardin Artuklu University, Turkey
The Balyan family were a dynasty of architects, builders and property owners who acted as the official architects to the Ottoman Sultans throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Originally Armenian, the family is responsible for some of the most famous Ottoman buildings in existence, many of which are regarded as masterpieces of their period – including the Dolmabahçe Palace (built between 1843 and 1856), parts of the Topkap? Palace, the Ç?ra?an Palace and the Ortaköy Mosque. Forging a unique style based around European contemporary architecture but with distinctive Ottoman flourishes, the family is an integral part of Ottoman history. As Alyson Wharton’s beautifully illustrated book reveals, the Balyan’s own history, of falling in and out of favour with increasingly autocratic Sultans, serves as a record of courtly power in the Ottoman era and is uniquely intertwined with the history of Istanbul itself. 336 PAGES 216 X 134MM FEBRUARY 2015 9781780768526 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00

Networks of Power in the Court of the Sultan George Junne
The Downfall of a Sultan in the Age of Revolution Aysel Yıldız e
At the height of the Ottoman Empire, black eunuchs rare, castrated slaves imported from Africa - became a key part of court politics. Unlike white eunuchs, who were only permitted outside the palace, black eunuchs had access to the harem - the Sultan’s inner court. The Chief Black Eunuch, appointed personally by the Sultan, had both the ear of the leader of a vast Islamic Empire and held power over a network of spies and informers, including eunuchs and slaves throughout Constantinople and beyond. The story of these remarkable individuals, who rose from difficult beginnings to become amongst the most powerful people in the Ottoman Empire, is rarely told. George Junne places their stories in the context of the wider history of African slavery, and places them at the centre of Ottoman history, marking a new direction in the study of courtly politics and power in Constantinople.

The Conflict at the Heart of the Middle East Ezgi Basaran
Turkey is on the front line of the war which is consuming Syria and the Middle East. Its role is complicated by the long-running conflict with the Kurds on the Syrian border - a war that has killed as many as 80,000 people over the last three decades. Frontline Turkey shows how the Kurds’ relationship with Turkey is at the very heart of the Middle Eastern crisis, and documents, through front-line reporting, how Erdogan’s failure to bring peace is the key to understanding current events in Middle East. 256 PAGES 216 X 134 MM SEPTEMBER 2017 9781784538415 HARDBACK £17.99 / $25.00

Consumption, Politics and Islamic Identity Nazli Alimen
This book investigates three of the most widespread faithinspired communities in Turkey: the Gülenists, Süleymanl? and the Menzil. Nazli Alimen compares these communities, looking at their diverse interpretations of Islamic rules related to the body and dress, and how these different groups compete for power and control in Turkey. In tracing what motivates consumption practices, the book adds to the growing interest in the commercial aspects of modest and Islamic fashion but also highlights the importance of clothing and bodily rituals (such as veiling, grooming and food choices) for the formation of community identities. 304 PAGES 216 X 134MM FERBRUARY 2018 9781788311663 HARDBACK £62.00 / $99.00

Journalist and football obsessive Patrick Keddie takes us on a wild journey through of the world’s most popular game. He travels from the streets of Istanbul, where simit sellers compete with water cannons for the attentions of the fans, to the deserts of Anatolia, where Islamic teams show their devotion through soccer. He meets gay referees facing death threats, women fighting for the right to wear shorts on the pitch and Kurdish teams playing for the human rights. In doing so he lifts the lid on a new side to the story of modern Turkey. 320 PAGES 216 X 134 MM MARCH 2018 9781784538026 HARDBACK £16.99 / $28.00

The Diyanet is the ‘Presidency of Religious Affairs’, the official face of Islam and highest religious authority in Turkey, and is a governmental department established in 1924 after the break-up of the Ottoman Empire. In this book, Emir Kaya offers an in-depth multidisciplinary analysis of this vital institution. By examining the various laws that either bolstered or hindered the Diyanet’s budgets and activities, Kaya highlights the institutional mindsets of the Diyanet membership as well as evaluating its successes and failures as a governmental department that has to consistently operate within the context of the religiosity of Turkish society. 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM MAY 2017 9781780766225 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY, VOL. 9

Turkey’s economy is a complex mix of modern industry, a traditional agricultural sector, and a rapidly growing private sector. At the same time the country is positioning itself and preparing for entry into the European Union. That Turkey should meet her national economic goals is, therefore, particularly important. A vital factor in achieving these will be the country’s regional economies and their associated economic policies. Aksel Ersoy’s book is the first work to explore the dynamics of local and regional development in Turkey. In addition, he offers a new theoretical framework for understanding the local and regional dynamics of emerging and transitional economies more generally.

The Ottoman Empire and Imperial Russia were often at war. Under Kemal Ataturk relations between Turkey and the Soviet Union improved – he was a consummate ‘balancer’ of the great powers as Turkey found its feet as a new nation. Of great interest to scholars of modern Turkey, and the USSR, this will be an essential addition to the literature on Turkey place in the modern world.

Erdogan and the Crisis of Modern Turkey NEW Soner Cagaptay
The aborted coup in Turkey has fired up interest in a country which will play a critical geopolitical role in the wars of the Middle East. The spotlight will inevitably be on Erdogan whose increasingly bizarre and authoritarian regime has increased tensions enormously both within and outside the country. With thousands of journalists arrested, academics officially banned from leaving the country, university deans fired and three quarters of highest ranking army officers arrested. Leading Turkish expert Soner Cagaptay will look at where Erdogan comes from in Turkish history, what he believes in, how he has cemented his rule will assess the threats he faces – from the Gulen movement to the Kurdish question. 224 PAGES 216X135MM MAY 2017 9781784538262 HARDBACK £17.99 / $25.00

Rage and Revolution in Modern Turkey Kaya Genç
Turkey stands at the crossroads of the Middle East – caught between the West, ISIS, Syria and Russia, and governed by an increasingly hard-line leader. Kaya Genç meets activists from both sides of Turkey’s political divide: Gezi park protestors who fought to transform their country’s future, and supporters of Erdogan’s conservative vision who are no less passionate in their activism. While talking to Turkey’s angry young people Genç weaves in historical stories, visions and mythologies, showing how Turkey’s progressives and conservatives take their ideological roots from two political movements born in the Ottoman Empire, fuelled by a determination to make their country more democratic. He shows a divided society coming to terms with the 21st Century, caught between history and modernity. 240 PAGES 198 X 126MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784534578 PAPERBACK £12.99 / $19.50
THE GÜLEN MOVEMENT IN TURKEY
REVISED EDITION
A Modern History Erik J. Zürcher
The Politics of Islam, Science and Modernity Caroline Tee University of Cambridge
This revised edition builds upon and updates its twin themes of Turkey’s continuing incorporation into the capitalist world and the modernisation of state and society. Zürcher argues that Turkey’s history between 1908 and 1950 should be seen as a unity, and offers a strongly revisionist interpretation of Turkey’s founding father, Kemal Atatürk. In his account of the period since 1950, Zürcher focuses on the growth of mass politics; the three military coups; Turkey’s human right’s record; the alliance with the West and relations with the European Community; Turkey’s ambivalent relations with the Middle East; the increasingly explosive Kurdish question; and the continuing political instability and growth of Islam. 480 PAGES 216 X 134 MM MAY 2017 9781784531874 PAPERBACK £15.99 / $35.00 9781784531867 HARDBACK £75.00 / $120.00

The Gülen, or Hizmet, movement in Turkey is the country’s most powerful and affluent religious organisation. Its central tenet, advanced by its founder, the Sunni preacher Fethullah Gülen (b. 1941), is that Muslims should engage positively with modernity. But how does the Gülen movement resolve the sometimes conflicting positions of Sunni Islam and contemporary science – for example, on evolutionary theory? Drawing on sustained ethnographic research conducted among Gülen communities in Turkey, Caroline Tee analyses their complex attitudes towards secular modernity. She focuses on education, science research and industry to explore how pious Muslim practitioners engage in science at high levels. 272 PAGES 216 X 134 MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784535889 HARDBACK £20.00 / $29.50

‘West’ or ‘East’? ‘Secular’ or ‘Islamic’? ‘Turkish’ or ‘Other’? These seemingly polar opposites have often been lazily used when examining the nature of the modern Turkish state and its society. Here, Turunc seeks to look at the nuance which lies in between these opposites, analysing the explosion of civil society institutions under the aegis and protection of the EU Copenhagen Political Criteria. A fresh look at the current issues within Turkey, this book offers a vital and nuanced analysis of modern Turkey and its political issues. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2018 9781780760919 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

What role do the narratives of the ancient past play in the modern Turkish Republic? How is the knowledge of this past constructed and displayed? Savino answers these questions through an analysis of the role of archaeology and its representation in the service of generating new perceptions of cultural identity in Turkey. The topic is explored through a focus on museums and visual media, addressing the ways in which antiquities became crucial symbols in the establishment and construction of a Turkish national imagination. Creating Images of a Turkish Past illustrates archaeological knowledge practises within a Turkish national context, but also shows that these practises cross national and international boundaries in an attempt to shape collective identities. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2018 9781784532529 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

Looking beyond pure architectural styles or the physical manifestations of Istanbul’s cultural landscape, Murat Gül offers critical insight into how Turkish attempts to modernise have affected both the city and its population. Charting the diverse forces evident in Istanbul’s urban fabric, the book examines late Ottoman reforms, the Turkish Republic’s turn westward for inspiration, Cold War alliances and the AK Party’s reaffirmation of cultural ties with the Middle East and the Balkans. Connecting this rich history to present-day Istanbul, whose urban development is characterised anew by intense social stratification, the book will appeal to researchers of Turkey, its architecture and urban planning. 336 PAGES 234 X 156 MM APRIL 2017 9781784531058 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

This book now examines the emergence and consequences of neoliberalism in Turkey. Of particular importance to the study are the contested spaces - those sites of struggle and protest - where the impact of this economic system is challenged or negotiated. The contributors look beyond the neoliberal cities of the West - Istanbul and Ankara - to take into account the rest of the country and the groups that are most negatively affected: such as the Kurds, women and migrants. Contested Spaces in Contemporary Turkey sheds new light on the societal processes that are re-shaping modern Turkey, a subject which is of increasing importance considering Erdogan’s new model for an Islam-based state and in the aftermath of the July 2016 military coup attempt. 320 PAGES 216 X 134 MM NOVEMBER 2017 9781784536107 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00

TV Talk shows, often seen as vulgar and low-brow, can actually be a vehicle through which hitherto undiscussed topics (such as violence against women or political exclusion) are brought into the public sphere. Sanli argues that this is the case in Turkey, where talk shows often invite ordinary women from lower socio-economic classes to speak of their experiences of family life: marriage, divorce, child custody rights and relations with in-laws. Specifically looking at popular women’s talk shows such as these (commonly called ‘Woman’s Voice’ television), Sanli explores how groups with political and cultural power control public discourse and the public sphere in Turkey, and how urban/rural and Islamist/secular oppositions are constructed and evolve. 288 PAGES 216 X 134MM DECEMBER 2015 9781780763927 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

Eric Hobsbawm famously called late 20th Century Turkey ‘the last stronghold of the peasantry’. Turkey’s unique social, cultural and economic development after World War II kept intact a large social group which had all but disappeared in the rest of Europe by the 1960s. In the first period of Turkish multi-party democracy, this peasantry were re-invented, re-defined and ‘imagined’ by various political factions as Turkey attempted to shed its Ottoman past. Through the translation of ‘village literature’, the agency of this previously unheard voice is revealed, along with its role in the formation of Turkey. 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM OCTOBER 2016 9781780761138 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00 INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF ETHNICITY, IDENTITY AND CULTURE, VOL. 2

Despite its more liberal and democratic characteristics, conservative elements within Turkish politics and society have made gains in recent decades. As a result, Turkish society has multiple standards when naming, evaluating and reacting to men who have sex with men. Cenk Özbay argues that overall, self-identified gay men (as well as men who practice clandestine same-sex acts) are generally marginalised, ostracised and rendered ‘immoral’ in both everyday practices and social institutions. He offers an analysis of the concept of masculinity as central to redefining boundaries of class, gender and sexuality. Using in-depth interviews, Özbay further explores the changing discourses and meaning of class, gender and queer sexualities, and how these three are embedded within urban and familial narratives. 272 PAGES 216 X 135MM MARCH 2017 9781784533175 HARDBACK £85.00 / $135.00

During the 2013 Gezi Park Uprisings, the role and behaviour of the Turkish Police made headlines across the world. Concentrating on the attempts to ‘modernize’ the policing of Izmir, Zeynep Gönen highlights how the police force expanded their territorial control over the urban space, specifically targeting the poor and racialized segments of the city. Through in-depth interviews and ethnographic observations of these ‘targeted’ populations, as well as rare ethnographic data from the Turkish police, surveys of the media and politicians’ rhetoric, Gönen shows how Kurdish migrants have been criminalized as dangerous ‘enemies’ of the order. 256 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2016 9781784535438 HARDBACK £77.00 / $120.00

In 1923 the Turkish government, under new leader Kemal Atatürk, signed a renegotiated Balkan Wars treaty with the major powers of the day and Greece. This provided for the forced exchange of 1.3 million Christians from Anatolia to Greece, in return for 30,000 Greek Muslims. The ensuing mass migration was a humanitarian catastrophe. But both the Greek and Turkish leadership saw this exchange as crucial to the state-strengthening projects both powers were engaged in after World War I. Bedlek approaches this enormous shift in national thinking through literary texts – addressing the themes of loss, identity, memory and trauma which both populations experienced. The result is a new understanding of the tensions between religious and ethnic identity in modern Turkey. 272 PAGES 216 X 134 MM DECEMBER 2015 9781784531270 HARDBACK £62.00 / $99.00 INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF TWENTIETH CENTURY HISTORY

TURKISH FOREIGN POLICY IN THE 21ST CENTURY NEW
TURKEY, THE US AND THE EU
Neo-Ottomanism and the Strategic Depth Doctrine Alexander Murinson, Bar-Ilan University, Israel
The New Foreign Policies Kubilay Yado Arin Portland State University
Modern Turkey sits right at the centre of many geopolitical areas of influence and since the end of the Cold War, Turkish foreign policy has undergone a tremendous transformation to capitalise on this position. Alexander Murinson explores this situation by highlighting the historical roots of the neo-Ottoman foreign policy called ‘strategic depth’ that attempts to position Turkey as not only leader of the Muslim and Turkic worlds, but also as a central power in Eurasia. This ambition reflects Turkey’s aim to become a moderator and a ‘curator’ of interactions in the adjacent regions, including the Caucasus, the Balkans and the wider Middle East. For Murinson, this policy requires Turkey to play the role the Ottoman Empire used to perform in the region.
Recently, there has been a radical shift in the tone of Turkish foreign policy. From a quiet acquiescence with EU recommendations to the more recent vocal rhetoric and contrarian positioning, Turkey has managed to negotiate a pivotal position for itself within the wider region. Kubilay Yado Arin looks at this change in foreign policy within the context of Turkey’s relationship with the US and the EU. Examining the concepts of hard, soft, and smart power in Turkish foreign policy, he focuses on the US’ support of a Turkish bid for EU membership, and what this means for relations between Washington and Ankara. Looking specifically at the ways in which think tanks have an effect on policy-making processes, reshaping the foreign policy agenda at a time of political transformation and regional crises due to the civil conflict in Syria.

TRAVEL
AN ISTANBUL ANTHOLOGY
NEW
Travel Writing through the Centuries Kaya Genç (Ed) For centuries following its reestablishment as Constantinople in AD 330, Istanbul served as the capital of three great empires: Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman. The city’s maze-like streets and steep alleys, flower gardens and forested hillsides remain soaked in the vestiges of that imperial past, and it is to that past and to Istanbul’s unique character that so many writers and diarists journeyed in search of escape, knowledge, happiness, or sheer wonderment. An Istanbul Anthology takes us on a nostalgic journey through the city, from the sights, smells, and sounds of Istanbul’s bazaars and coffeehouses, its grand palaces and gardens, crumbling buildings, to its ancient churches and mosques, and the waters that so haunt and define it. With writers such as Gustave Flaubert, Pierre Loti, Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain, and André Gide, we discover and rediscover the many delights of this great city, the meeting point of East and West, and gateway civilisations. 160 PAGES 120 X 160MM NOVEMBER 2015 9789774167218 HARDBACK £11.99 THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY IN CAIRO PRESS

COOKERY
SHERBET AND SPICE
The Complete Story of Turkish Sweets and Desserts Mary Isin The stories behind Turkey’s huge variety of sweets and puddings are as fascinating as their multiplicity of flavours. This riveting exploration of their history and role in Turkish culture is a voyage of adventure, taking us from the sultan’s palace to the homes of ordinary people in Turkey’s villages and towns, and beyond to Central Asia, Persia, Arabia, Egypt and the Levant. This is the land of Turkish delight perfumed with rosewater and musk, rose jam, baklava filled with nuts, clotted cream or cheese, milk puddings and helvas, strings of nuts dipped in grape syrup, and model gardens built of sugar carried in wedding processions. The first study of Turkish confectionery ever to be published, Sherbet and Spice offers a rare look at the evolution of sweets from the non-European angle, based on many Turkish sources little known outside Turkey that lend a new dimension to the subject. ‘A fascinating and informative exploration of the role of sweetness in Turkish culture over the centuries.’ – Laura Mason, food historian and author of Sugar-plums and Sherbet 304 PAGES 228 X 155MM ILLUSTRATED 2012 9781848858985 HARDBACK £20.00

CLASSIC TURKISH COOKING
The Cuisine of a Legendary Empire Andrew Dalby
For centuries the food and culinary delights of the Byzantine empire – centred on Constantinople – have captivated the West This book reveals in astonishing detail, for the first time, what was eaten in the court of the Eastern Roman Empire – and how it was cooked. Fusing the spices of the Romans with the seafood and simple local food of the Aegean and Greek world, the cuisine of the Byzantines was unique and a precursor to much of the food of modern Turkey and Greece. Bringing this vanished cuisine to life in vivid and sensual detail, Dalby describes the sights and smells of Constantinople and its marketplaces, relates travellers’ tales and paints a comprehensive picture of the recipes and customs of the empire and their relationship to health and the seasons, love and medicine. 272 PAGES 198 X 126MM 2010 9781848851658 PAPERBACK £14.99
