<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>This volume considers the period of Ottoman rule in Greek history in light of changing scholarship about this era and makes it accessible for the first time to a wider audience. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Molly Greene provides a new interpretation of the Ottoman centuries, drawing extensively on recent Greek scholarship. Moving beyond old models of a cohesive and autonomous Greek community living behind communal walls, she demonstrates the variety of Greek experience under the sultans and asks what Ottoman subjecthood meant for Christians in general, and Greeks in particular. Larger debates in Ottoman historiography are also integrated into the history of the Greeks. The book will appeal not only to those interested in the Greek experience, but Ottoman historians as well.</p>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Drawing upon a deep well of her own research and scholarship on the eastern Mediterranean and the Ottoman Empire, and incorporating, diplomatically and synthetically, a new wave of post-nationalist Greek scholarship on the Ottoman Empire, Greene has crafted here a balanced, expertly pitched, and foundational analysis of Hellenism in the early-modern period.</p>--Andrew Robarts, Rhode Island School of Design "Journal of World History"<br><br><p>Invaluable for scholars of the Mediterranean world, the Ottoman Empire and the Greeks alike, Molly Greene's lucid and synthetic work presents an analysis of the current state of scholarship and analysis of three often-conflated topics in the Ottoman Empire: the Greeks; the Orthodox Christians; and the Greek Orthodox Church...
