From the late sixteenth-century Ottoman Empire to traditional style crafts in twentieth-century Turkey and Egypt, the book surveys a multitude of traditions. It begins in 1582 when Istanbul artisans paraded in front of Sultan Murad III; moves through to the eighteenth-century struggles between artisans and tax farmers in Tokat, the artisans of Cairo and the craftsmen of Adana; and into nineteenth-century accounts of Istanbul's women workers and Jewish butchers. This book is essential to all those interested in the history of the culture and society of the Islamic Mediterranean.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suraiya Faroqhi,Randi Deguilhem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1860647006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860647000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.78h x 6.34w x 1.34d","brand":"Suraiya Faroqhi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47611833516287,"sku":"9781860647000","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf7e75a1-4f5b-4d2f-9ee2-ede9f51d1934.jpg?v=1764516373","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crafts-and-craftsmen-of-the-suraiya-faroqhi-9781860647000","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
