Description

"In a compelling exploration of the ways that primary and secondary sources can be used to interpret history, the author reaches out to students and researchers in the field and in related disciplines to familiarise them with these documents. By considering both archival and narrative sources, she explains why they were prepared, encouraging her readers to adopt a critical approach to their findings, and disabusing them of the notion that everything recorded in official documents is necessarily true.";Entering the field -- Locating Ottoman sources -- Rural life as reflected in archival sources: selected examples -- European sources on Ottoman history: the travellers -- On the rules of writing (and reading) Ottoman historical works -- Perceptions of empire: viewing the Ottoman Empire through general histories -- Conclusion.
