Presented here of the first time in English is a translation of Mehmed Fuad Köprülü's important work of Turkish historiography and history, Some Observations on the Influence of Byzantine Instutions on Ottoman Institutions. This work was originally published more than half a century ago, in 1931. Despite the years and the more recent research that has been done on this subject, Köprülü's work retains considerable interest to Byzantinists, Ottomanists and Islamicts. Indeed, it can be regarded as the starting point for the modern study of the social, economic and relationship between Byzantium and the Ottoman Empire, and for the modern study of the historical development of Turkish institutions in general.

New English Paperback. Large demy 8vo. (22 x 16 cm). In English. 320 p. The Church of Sancta Sophia Constantinople. Sancta Sophia is the most interesting building on the world's surface. Like Karnak in Egypt, or the Athenian Parthenon, it is one of the four great pinnacles of architecture, but unlike them this is no ruin, nor does it belong to a past world of constructive ideas although it precedes by seven hundred years the fourth culmination of the building art in Chartres, Amiens, or Bourges, and thus must ever stand as the supreme monument of the Christian cycle. Our first object has been to attempt some disentanglement of the history of the Church and an analysis of its design and construction; on the one hand, we have been led a step or two into the labyrinth of Constantinopolitan topography, on the other, we have thought that the great Church offers the best point of view for the observation of the Byzantine theory of building.
