İlker Evrim Binbaş argues that the intellectuals in this period formed informal networks which transcended political and linguistic boundaries, and spanned an area from the western fringes of the Ottoman State to bustling late medieval metropolises such as Cairo, Shiraz, and Samarkand. The network included an Ottoman revolutionary, a Mamluk prophet, and a Timurid occultist, as well as physicians, astronomers, devotees of the secret sciences, and those political figures who believed that the network was a force to be taken seriously. Also discussing the formation of an early modern Islamicate republic of letters, this book offers fresh insights on the study of intellectual history beyond the limitations imposed by nationalist methodologies, established genres, and recognized literary traditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e İlker Evrim Binbaş\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107054249\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107054240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 362\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.36h x 6.08w x 0.98d","brand":"\u0026#304;lker Evrim Binbas\u0026#807;","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120800231679,"sku":"9781107054240","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_262de225-a8d5-46cc-88b0-bf0d287b112a.jpg?v=1687416357","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/intellectual-networks-in-timurid-iran-lker-evrim-binbas-9781107054240","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
