- catalog abstract ""In the space of six years early in the seventeenth century, the Ottoman Empire underwent such turmoil and trauma - the assassination of the young ruler Osman II, the re-enthronement and subsequent abdication of his mad uncle Mustafa I, for a start - that a scholar pronounced the period's three-day-long dramatic climax "an Ottoman Tragedy." In Gabriel Pieterberg's analysis, this period of crisis becomes a historical laboratory for the history of the Ottoman Empire in the seventeenth century - an opportunity to observe the dialectical play between history as experience and history as a recounting of that experience." "Piterberg reconstructs the Ottoman narration of this fraught period from the foundational test, produced in the early 1620s, until the composition of the state narrative at the end of the seventeenth century. His work brings theories of historiography into dialogue with the interpretation of Ottoman historical texts, even as it forces a rethinking of both Ottoman historiography and the Ottoman state in the seventeenth century. Ultimately, Piterberg argues that the historiographical discourse was inextricably intertwined with the history - the actual development - of the Ottoman state in the seventeenth century. A reinterpretation of a major event in Ottoman history, his work reconceives the relation between historiography and history - with relevance well beyond the period in question."--Jacket.".
