{"product_id":"the-ottoman-empire-and-early-daniel-goffman-9780521452809","title":"The Ottoman Empire and Early Modern Europe","description":"Despite the fact that its capital city and over one third of its territory was within the continent of Europe, the Ottoman Empire has consistently been regarded as a place apart, inextricably divided from the West by differences of culture and religion. A perception of its militarism, its barbarism, its tyranny, the sexual appetites of its rulers and its pervasive exoticism has led historians to measure the Ottoman world against a western standard and find it lacking. In recent decades, a dynamic and convincing scholarship has emerged that seeks to comprehend and, in the process, to de-exoticize this enduring realm. Dan Goffman provides a thorough introduction to the history and institutions of the Ottoman Empire from this new standpoint, and presents a claim for its inclusion in Europe. His lucid and engaging book--an important addition to New Approaches in European History--will be essential reading for undergraduates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Goffman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521452805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521452809\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 04\/25\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.66h x 4.54w x 0.90d","brand":"Daniel Goffman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46866993053951,"sku":"9780521452809","price":123.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_26a8fcbd-6e57-4fc4-afd7-8309d7354148.jpg?v=1747453634","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ottoman-empire-and-early-daniel-goffman-9780521452809","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
