Mediterranean Encounters: Trade and Pluralism in Early Modern Galata Hardcover - 2018
by Fariba Zarinebaf
From the rear cover
"An outstanding work in early modern Mediterranean history, Fariba Zarinebaf's Mediterranean Encounters explores commercial, legal, and cultural relations in Galata with depth and vigor. This fascinating analysis brings to life the rich history of Galata's inhabitants--Muslims, Christians and Jews--and carefully examines their relationship to the empire in which they lived, as well as to the empires around them, their commerce, their trading relations, their leisure practices, and their everyday life. Offering a rich and sophisticated reading of sources in three languages, and incorporating research methodologies from microhistory, legal history, urban history, and gender studies, Mediterranean Encounters is a vivid and fascinating history of the city of Istanbul. A marvelous read."--Orit Bashkin, Professor of Modern Middle Eastern History, University of Chicago "Galata: port of Istanbul, Ottoman-European diplomatic hub, storied home of Istanbul's nightlife. And yet few comprehensive historical accounts exist. Zarinebaf's work fills this void in masterly fashion. Her deeply researched book shows us the legal, commercial, and social characteristics of this essential cosmopolitan center in the crucial early modern period."--A. Holly Shissler, Associate Professor of Ottoman and Modern Turkish History, University of Chicago "In Mediterranean Encounters, Fariba Zarinebaf charts the rise of early modern Istanbul as a commercial center, and its engagement with European imperial powers. Unedited court records vividly bring to life the bustling cacophony of the Ottoman city in all its grittiness and complexity."--Brian A. Catlos, Professor of Religious Studies, University of Colorado, Boulder "Zarinebaf shows us Ottoman Galata as we have not seen it before, over time and in depth. Her detailed vision of the early modern port highlights its intercommunality. Especially illuminating are her nuanced treatments of the implementation of Ottoman-French treaties and of the interactions among locals and foreigners."--Palmira Brummett, Visiting Scholar in History, Brown University "Fariba Zarinebaf takes her readers on a grand tour of Galata's pluralist past and cosmopolitan character. Galata has long deserved a history of its own, and it could not have wished for a better chronicler than Zarinebaf."--Maurits van den Boogert, PhD, author of Aleppo Observed and The Capitulations and the Ottoman Legal System
