"The Ottoman lands, which comprised a geography extending from modern Hungary to the Arabian peninsula, were home to a vast population with a rich variety of cultures. The Ottoman World is the first primary source reader designed to reflect a wide and diverse set of voices across Ottoman society and bring them into the classroom. Written in many languages-not only Ottoman Turkish, but also Arabic, Armenian, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, and Persian-these texts span the extent of the early modern Ottoman empire, from the 1450s to 1700.
