L'Empire ottoman au XIXe siècle

Beginning with the Congress of Vienna in 1815 and its breakup in the aftermath of the Great war, this book covers the whole of the Ottoman Empire, from the Balkans to the Red Sea, from the Caucasus to North Africa as well as its ethical, religious and linguistic elements. The author presents the institutions, society, culture, the history of ideas and daily life in chronological order; describes the decline and fall of the Empire: the problem of communities, demography, social and cultural transformations, political and administrative changes, etc.; and places the Empire in the context of international relations and measures it against the other territorial and multinational Empires at the time. Winner of the Auguste Pavie Book Prize.
