  • 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.

  • The Pertevniyal Valide Sultan Mosque.Pdf
    Paper prepared for the Third Euroacademia Forum of Critical Studies Asking Big Questions Again Florence, 6–7 February 2015 This paper is a draft Please do not cite 1 The Pertevniyal Valide Sultan Camii: “An Auspicious Building On An Auspicious Site” Bahar Yolac Pollock, Phd candidate Koc University, Istanbul Abstract The Pertevniyal Valide Sultan Mosque was inaugurated in 1871 by the mother of Sultan Abdülaziz (r. 1861-1876). It was the last example of the long Ottoman tradition of royal mosque complexes, but neither twentieth-century urban developers nor historians of Ottoman art have had much regard for this monument, likely because the decoration and tectonic structure of the mosque reflect a vast span of Ottoman, Moorish, Gothic and Renaissance styles. The amalgamation of these styles was often condemned in the old paradigm of Ottoman architectural history as a garish hodgepodge lacking the grandeur of classical Ottoman architecture. This paper will examine why and how such preferences emerged and establish what Michael Baxandall has called the “period eye.” Furthermore, I will investigate a point that Ottoman art historians who have explained the choice of style have omitted: nowhere do they mention the importance of the site for the valide sultan and the imperial family. My paper will thus contextualize the complex within the larger nineteenth-century urban fabric and the socio-political circumstances to elucidate better its function and significance. Overall I argue that the rich hybridity of the building together with the choice of its location was intended to testify to the powerful dynastic presence during particularly tumultuous years of the empire, while also projecting the aspirations of a strong female figure of the Ottoman dynasty.
