The torch of the Empire: Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson and the tableau general of the Ottoman Empire in the eighteenth century.= Imparatorlugun mesalesi: XVIII. yüzyilda Osmanli Imparatorlugu'nun genel görünümü ve Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson. Articles by Carter Vaughn Findley, Günsel Renda, Philip Mansel, Veniamin Ciobanu, Kemal Beydilli, Abdeljelil Temimi, Rachida Tlili Sellaouti, Folke Ludwigs Sture Theolin. The Torch of the Ottoman Empire presents the life and work of a truly remarkable person, Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson, and through him, the Ottoman Empire of the late eighteenth century. In revolutionary Paris d'Ohsson published in 1789 what is maybe the best description of the social history of the Ottoman Empire, Tableau General de I'Empire Othoman. D'Ohsson's book was extravagantly illustrated with the help of the best artists in Constantinople working for Abdulhamid I and Selim III. The most renowned artists of pre-revolutionary France then executed the gravures in Paris. Some motifs, reproduced also in this present book, still remain quite unique. Through these engravings, an intimate reality is revealed to us, bringing us very close to a universe long since vanished. A very heavy volume. The Torch of the Empire presents the life and work of a truly remarkable person, Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson, and through him, the Ottoman Empire of the late eighteenth century. Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson was a dragoman, an interpreter, at the Swedish Legation in Constantinople from around 1760. Although d'Ohsson was a Sultan's subject of French-Armenian origin, Sweden's King Gustav III made him a Swedish nobleman and trusted him to be his ambassador to the Sublime Porte. Mouradgea d'Ohsson thus performed an extraordinary journey, not only through the social classes of Ottoman society, but between civilizations. With outstanding scholars this book escorts us on a journey through the centuries to meet d'Ohsson and share his perspective on the Ottoman Empire and on European diplomacy of his time.

Précoce édition, publiée à Venise par Gabriel Giolito de Ferrari en 1548, qui manque à l'ensemble des bibliothèques en ligne: BnF et au CCFr, à KVC, à WorldCat. Un unique exemplaire recensé: réunion des Bibliothèques italiennes (ICCU). Mû par un sentiment pro-français et dirigé contre Rome, l’auteur prophétise dans une perspective millénariste, l’avènement d’une ère de paix internationale (‘Monarchia del mondo’), de pacification des querelles intestines et de tolérance religieuse universelle. Bayle a commenté cet ouvrage dans son dictionnaire (art. 'Xénophane', 4:518), à propos de la partialité des historiens : "J’ai lu un livre italien qui a pour titre ‘Monarchia del nostro signor Giesu Christo’ (…). L’auteur y donne l’histoire des combats de Lucifer contre Jésus-Christ…". L’ouvrage fut mis à l'index. Cf. 'Profezia e censura nell'Italia di fine Cinquecento. G. A. Pantera e l'Inquisizione', Bruniana e Campanelliana, 1/2012, pp. 221-232. (Bujanda, ‘Index de Rome’, 0277, p. 419. "Index des livres interdits", 10, 310).

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original manuscript autograph letter signed (ALS) 'Ali Cenânî' as a deputy of Ayntab and its envelope, sent to Ali Mazhar Bey, who was governor of Ankara between 1914-1915 before Armenian Deportation. 25,5x15,5 cm. In Ottoman script on a paper with 'Meclis-i Mebûsân' [i.e. The Ottoman Parliamentary] letterhead and "Prie. Superf." watermark. 1 p. Folded. Thirteen lines. Ali Cenânî Bey was an Ottoman / Turkish deputy and politician who played a role in the organization of the Southern Front during the Turkish War of Independence against the French Occupation in Ayntab -Gaziantep-). Cenanizadeler's family, some important figures in the last Ottoman period were its members like Grand Vizier Cenanizade Mehmet Kadri Pasha and writer Cenanizade Asim, whose names live in their mansions in Kanlica, Istanbul. He was exiled to Malta at the end of World War I among the 150 Personae Non-Gratae. On his return, he showed benefits in organizing the resistance to the occupation in Antep and Adana regions. Ali Mazhar Bey, who was appointed as the governor of Ankara in 1914, ignored the Armenians' deportation order. Despite the warnings from the Committee of Union and Progress, he did not implement the order and was assigned to Aleppo. Talat Pasha informed him about his new post in a special telegram. Ali Mazhar Bey foresaw that he would have to apply the deportation order, which he found contrary to his conscience, in his new position, and resigned.
