  • Women and Power: Female Patrons of Architecture in 16Th and 17Th Century Istanbul1
    Women and Power: Female Patrons of Architecture in 16th and 17th Century Istanbul1 Firuzan Melike Sümertas ̧ Anadolu University, Eskisehir, ̧ TÜRKlYE ̇ The aim of this paper is to discuss and illustrate the visibility of Ottoman imperial women in relation to their spatial presence and contribution to the architecture and cityscape of sixteenth and seventeenth century Istanbul. The central premise of the study is that the Ottoman imperial women assumed and exercised power and influence by various means but became publicly visible and acknowledged more through architectural patronage. The focus is on Istanbul and a group of buildings and complexes built under the sponsorship of court women who resided in the Harem section of Topkapı Palace. The case studies built in Istanbul in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries are examined in terms of their location in the city, the layout of the complexes, the placement and plan of the individual buildings, their orientation, mass characteristics and structural properties. It is discussed whether female patronage had any recognizable consequences on the Ottoman Classical Architecture, and whether female patrons had any impact on the building process, selection of the site and architecture. These complexes, in addition, are discussed as physical manifestation and representation of imperial female power. Accordingly it is argued that, they functioned not only as urban regeneration projects but also as a means to enhance and make imperial female identity visible in a monumental scale to large masses in different parts of the capital. Introduction Historical study, since the last quarter of the 20th The study first summarizes outlines the role of women century has concentrated on recognizing, defining, in the Ottoman society.

  • Running Head: Correspondence of Ottoman Women
    Correspondence of Ottoman Women 1 Running head: Correspondence of Ottoman Women The Correspondence of Ottoman Women during the Early Modern Period (16th-18th centuries): Overview on the Current State of Research, Problems, and Perspectives Marina Lushchenko Department of French, Hispanic and Italian Studies University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Correspondence of Ottoman Women 2 Abstract My main goal is to investigate problems and possible perspectives related to studies in Ottoman women’s epistolarity (16th-18th centuries). The paper starts with a review of the current state of research in this area. I then go on to discuss some of the major problems confronting researchers. Ottoman female epistolarity also offers many directions that future research may take. A socio-historical approach contributes to shed new light on the roles Ottoman women played within the family and society. A cultural approach or a gender-based approach can also provide interesting insight into Ottoman women’s epistolarity. Moreover, the fast computerization of scholarly activity suggests creating an electronic archive of Ottoman women’s letters in order to attract the attention of a wider scholarly audience to this field of research. Correspondence of Ottoman Women 3 INTRODUCTION In recent years researchers working in the field of gender studies have started to pay special attention to the place that letter-writing held in early modern women’s lives. As a source, letters provide, indeed, an incomparable insight into women’s thoughts, emotions and experiences, and help to make important advances towards a better understanding and evaluation of female education and literacy, social and gender interactions as well as roles played by women within the family circle, in society and, often, on the political stage.

Dört oğlan bir kız çocuğu an- nesidir. Hileci ve entrikacı kişilik yapısı ile sarayda geldiği mevki i kimseye kaptırma- mak, saltanatının devamını sağlamak için oğullarını tahta çıkarmak istemiş ve bunun için de elinden gelen herşeyi yapmıştır. ilk engelolarak gördüğü Şehzade Mustafa'yı or- tadan kaldırtmış, fakat bu davranışının hem ordu hem halk hem de kendi oğulları için iyi sonuçlar vermediğini çok geç farketmiştir.

BAŞBAKANLIK AİLE ARAŞTIRMA KURUMU BAŞKANLIĞI YAYINLARI Genel Yayın No: 4 Seri : Bilim Serisi ISBN : 975-19-0285-1 Redaksiyon: Dr. C. Doğan, E. Özensel, S. Güneş. A R. Kalaycı, E Özdemir Dizgi : Reyhan Grafik Baskı : Öz-EI Matbaası SUNUŞ 1980 ortalarından itibaren ülkemizde kadın orijinli hareket ve yaklaşımların büyük bir mesafe katettiği biliniyor. Bunda Birleşmiş Milletler gibi bazı uluslararası kuruluşlarla vakıfların sağladığı kaynak ve motivasyonların büyük bir payı bulunuyor. Bu arada iki ku- tuplu bir dünyadan tek kutuplu bir dünyaya geçerken, sosyalizmin bıraktığı büyük boşlukta kadın hakları ve "feminizm"in, neredeyse bir ideoloji gibi sunu- lup algılanmasının da bundaki payı büyük. Kadın konusundaki yaklaşımların sansasyonal boyutlar taşıması, her ne kadar harekete bir ivme kazandırmak amacından ileri gelse de, sonuçta, toplum- sal katılımı geciktiren fonksiyonlar ürettiği de bir gerçek. Gelişmeye ve değişime karşı aşırı ön yargıları bulunmayan Türk toplumunun, aceleci ve yaptırımcı tavırları bir "şiddet" unsuru olarak algıladığını da burada kaydetmek gerekiyor. Bu yaklaşımların içine düştüğü bir durum da, kadını mensubu olduğu sosyal üniteden, yani aileden soyutlayarak ele almaya kalkışmasıdır. Kadını, o toplu- mun temelini oluşturan aileden bağımsızlaştırarak ele almak, toplumsal gerçeklikleri veya sosyal kurumları yok farzetmek anlamına gelebilir. Kadın, erkek ve çocuğun kendi bireyi ile sınırlandırılabilecek tarafının yanı sıra, onların, ailenin bütünlüğü içinde üstlendiği bir takım rol ve statülerin de bulun- duğunu biliyoruz. Halbuki sosyal kurumların değişmesi, bizim arzularımızın hilâfına daha uzun zamanlara ihtiyaç gösterebilir. Daha ötede bu problemi üretim biçimlerinin, ailelerin hayat tarzının geçireceği büyük dönüşümlerden bağımsız düşünmek de mümkün değildir.

  • Before the Odalisque: Renaissance Representations of Elite Ottoman Women Heather Madar
    Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2011, vol. 6 Before the Odalisque: Renaissance Representations of Elite Ottoman Women Heather Madar he much-mythologized harem of the Ottoman sultans occupied a Tcentral place in European Orientalist thought for centuries.1 The harem, presented as an exotic world of forbidden sexuality inhabited by compliant yet sexually voracious women, appears in literature, art, and travel writing. While the most famous expressions of this harem fixa- tion date from later centuries,2 a focus on the harem as libidinous zone is demonstrably present in written sources from the sixteenth century. Yet an exploration of sixteenth-century European images turns up a surprising dearth of imagery in this vein. While Renaissance art lacks the languid odalisques or detailed views of the physical environment of the sultan’s harem familiar from later works, a series of largely overlooked representa- tions of elite Ottoman women do exist. Dating from the mid-sixteenth century, these images feature imagined portraits of sultanas — elite women such as Ottoman princesses, the sultan’s mother (valide sultan), or the sul- tan’s preferred concubine (haseki).3 Hurrem, the wife of sultan Süleyman, and his daughter Mihrimah appear most frequently in this genre. Yet strik- ing differences are immediately evident between their depiction and later, more familiar, views of the harem and harem women. The women shown in the Renaissance tradition were members of the sultan’s harem, yet they are not shown within a harem setting, nor do the images make reference to it. Although they are visually marked as Other, largely through the atten- tion given to their exotic dress, they are also presented as women who are of interest as individuals, possessing status and political significance.

  • The Economic Activities of Women in Ottoman Empire
    Journal of Economics, Finance and Accounting – (JEFA), ISSN: 2148-6697 Journal of Economics, Finance and Accounting – JEFA (2016), Vol.3(2) Karta Year: 2016 Volume: 3 Issue: 2 THE ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN IN OTTOMAN EMPIRE DOI: 10.17261/Pressacademia.2016219776 Nurullah Karta Yüzüncü Yıl University. [email protected] ABSTRACT There is no sufficient research that was conducted on the participation of women in the Ottoman Economic system. Most of the time, women in Ottoman State was described considering the framework of harem. However, truth is very different. When the Ottoman records are analyzed, the great economic contribution of Ottoman women to the family and social life has been seen. Of course during the classical period of the Ottoman empire, the given roles to the women is much more limited than the given roles to the men in the social , economic and politic fields. However in the Ottoman social life, the contribution of women to the family budget, the roles in the working life were so important which were thought. The women in Ottoman period have a significant role in the agricultural sector. When the archive documents checked, it has been countered that the women in Ottoman state were involved in agriculture and animal husbandry, gave the direction to the society during the war and peace, worked in the textile industry, home economics. and they had the right of heritage. But it has been that women in England participated in economic activities after the revolution of industry. Women in the West worked in the textile and production sectors in the beginning of the 19th century.

  • The Making of Sultan Süleyman: a Study of Process/Es of Image-Making and Reputation Management
    THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT by NEV ĐN ZEYNEP YELÇE Submitted to the Institute of Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Sabancı University June, 2009 © Nevin Zeynep Yelçe 2009 All Rights Reserved To My Dear Parents Ay şegül and Özer Yelçe ABSTRACT THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT Yelçe, Nevin Zeynep Ph.D., History Supervisor: Metin Kunt June 2009, xv+558 pages This dissertation is a study of the processes involved in the making of Sultan Süleyman’s image and reputation within the two decades preceding and following his accession, delineating the various phases and aspects involved in the making of the multi-layered image of the Sultan. Handling these processes within the framework of Sultan Süleyman’s deeds and choices, the main argument of this study is that the reputation of Sultan Süleyman in the 1520s was the result of the convergence of his actions and his projected image. In the course of this study, main events of the first ten years of Sultan Süleyman’s reign are conceptualized in order to understand the elements employed first in making a Sultan out of a Prince, then in maintaining and enhancing the sultanic image and authority. As such, this dissertation examines the rhetorical, ceremonial, and symbolic devices which came together to build up a public image for the Sultan. Contextualized within a larger framework in terms of both time and space, not only the meaning and role of each device but the way they are combined to create an image becomes clearer.
