New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). Edition in English. 272 p. The Ottoman Empire and Europe: The Ottoman Empire and its place in European history. "The history of Europe and the history of the Ottomans are two parallel histories; for this reason, the history of the two worlds should be studied comparatively.". (Halil Inalcik). From the middle of the fifteenth century on, the Ottoman Empire played a crucial role in shaping European history. This factor has not been weaved into Western historiography to its detriment, because explaining concepts such as raison d'etat, realpolitik, balance of power or even European identity remain somewhat short changed without the role of the Ottoman Empire in the evolution as well as functioning of these concepts. The Ottoman Empire is generally depicted and perceived as the adversary and antithesis of Europe and Europeanness in Western historiography because of certain historic reasons such as the Christian crusading tradition, public hostility due to long lasting warfare, cultural estrangement and perhaps because the Ottomans remained outside the Enlightenment process. However, there is much more to it than struggle. Our research findings presented in this compilation point to the impact of the Ottoman Empire in shaping modern Europe, specifically as of the sixteenth century and socio-cultural exchanges between the two realms through five hundred years of encounter.

'This book brings together the articles of Alexander H. de Groot, which convey an overview of the relationship between the Netherlands and the Ottoman Empire for 400 years. The articles involve certain important observations on the history of the political, cultural, social, economic, diplomatic and military relations between the two nations. Another characteristic of these articles is the fact that it serves as a guide for young historians, conducting research in this field, through references and annotations since each of these articles has been accomplished through heavy archival researches. The complete text of the 1612 dated imperial order (ferman, i.e. ahidname) is given in both English translation and Turkish transcriptions. The contents of this order once again establish that the capitulations were much more than only economic privileges. The final chapter of the book gives important hints on how the Independence War and the birth of the Turkish Republic are perceived by the Netherlands and the other European countries. Through these articles, Alexander H. de Groot depicts a certain way of reading history, which, in these days of turbulent relations between Turkey and Europe, brings a certain depth to the issue'.
