DATE OF APPROVAL: 10.08.2009 i © Mehmet Kuru, 2009 All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT RELATIONS BETWEEN OTTOMAN CORSAIRS AND THE IMPERIAL NAVY IN THE 16th CENTURY Mehmet Kuru History, M.A. Thesis, Spring 2009 Thesis Supervisor: Y. Hakan Erdem This thesis endeavors to present an analysis of the nature of the relations between ottoman corsairs and the imperial navy in the 16th century. Recruitment of corsairs as naval officers by Ottoman central authority to make up for the insufficient numbers of skilled seamen was presented as a fact in various works. However, there is no study to explain construction period of this relationship and to define the system. This thesis aims to construct a model to explicate this relationship. As of the mid-fifteenth century, Ottoman seapower started to strengthen and Empire conquered several crucial harbors and islands in Black sea and Mediterranean until the end of this century. Ottoman Imperial navy gained a strong infrastructure thanks to these conquests. Apart from Imperial navy, Ottoman corsairs' attacks that were based on these harbors increased and they strengthened gradually. In 1495, an old corsair, Kemal Reis was taken into Ottoman service, thus he became a pioneer for the recruitment of corsairs to Imperial Navy. This was a turning point regarding relations between corsairs and imperial navy. Second and more important stage was promotion of Barbaros Hayrettin Pasha as a Kapudan Pasha of Imperial Navy in 1534 and formation of Cezayir-i Bahr-i Sefid province as a province of Grand Admiral. Therefore, relations between corsairs based North Africa and central authority grew stronger. In this study, a subjective periodization for purpose of analysis was used ; Pre- Kapudan Pasha Era, formation of Kapudan Pasha post and post-Lepanto era. On the other hand, both parts of this relation, Ottoman imperial navy and Ottoman corsairs were handled simultaneously. Corsairs could be independent as pirates, semi-dependent as privateers or dependent as naval officers and those were not opposite poles in early modern world. There was not a strict line between legal and illegal acts and this was considered as a part of early modern world in conceptualization of this relationship. iii ÖZET 16. YY'DA OSMANLI KORSANLARI İLE MERKEZI DONANMA ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKI Mehmet Kuru Tarih, Master Tezi, Bahar 2009 Tez Danışmanı: Y. Hakan Erdem Bu tez, 16. yy'da Osmanlı korsanları ile Donanma-i Humayun arasındaki ilişkinin analizini yapmayı amaçlamaktadır. Osmanlı merkezi yönetiminin, korsanları donanma hizmetine alarak onların denizcilik bilgisinden faydalandıkları tezi çeşitli akademik yayınlarda sürekli tekrarlansa da bu ilişkinin nasıl kurulduğu ve sistemin nasıl işlediği konusu üzerine bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Tezin amacı bu ilişki üzerine bir model kurmaktır. Osmanlı İmparatorluğunun deniz gücü 15.yy ortalarından itibaren yükselişe geçmiş, imparatorluk, yüzyıl sonuna kadar Karadeniz ve Akdeniz'de pek çok liman ve adayı ele geçirerek donanma için önemli bir altyapıya sahip olmuştu. Bu süreçte merkezi donanma dışında Osmanlı korsanlarının saldırılarında da artış görüldü. Korsanlar da Osmanlının eline geçen adaları ve limanları üs olarak kullanarak saldırılarını gittikçe arttırdılar. 1495 yılında korsan bir reis olan Kemal Reis'in devlet hizmetine alınarak, donanmanın başına getirilmesiyle korsanların donanma hizmetine alınmasının önü açıldı. Bu korsan-merkez ilişki açısından bir dönüm noktası oldu. İkinci ve daha önemli aşama ise 1534 yılında Barbaros Hayrettin'in Kapudan-ı deryalığa getirilmesi ve Cezayir-i Bahr-i Sefid eyaletinin kurularak Kapudan Paşa'ya bağlanmasıydı. Bu tarihten itibaren Kuzey Afrika'yı üs olarak kullanan korsanlar ile merkez arasındaki ilişkiler güçlendi. Çalışmada, konuyla ilgili olarak; Barbaros Hayrettin paşa öncesi dönem, kapudan paşa dönemi ve İnebahtı savaşı sonrası dönem olmak üzere öznel bir dönemleştirmeye gidilmiş, bununla birlikte ilişkinin iki tarafı merkez donanma ve korsanlar birlikte ele alınmaya çalışılmıştır. Donanma hizmetine alınan korsanlar, devletin izniyle düşman kıyılarına ve gemilerine “yasal” yağmada bulunan yarı- bağımsız korsanlar ve Osmanlı kıyılarına saldıran “harami” korsanların devlet açısından konumları tanımlanmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu değerlendirme yapılırken erken modern çağda yasal-yasadışı arasındaki çizginin çok net olmadığı vurgulanmış ve bu durum korsan- merkez arası ilişkilerin kavramsallaştırılmasında gözönüne alınmıştır. iv ACKNOWLEGMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my thesis supervisor Hakan Erdem, for his suggestions, comments and especially patience all through my thesis process, and to the jury members Halil Berktay and Tosun Terzioğlu for their comments that help me to clarify my thoughts.

  • Pompey, the Great Husband
    Michael Jaffee Patterson Independent Project 2/1/13 Pompey, the Great Husband Abstract: Pompey the Great’s traditional narrative of one-dimensionally striving for power ignores the possibility of the affairs of his private life influencing the actions of his political career. This paper gives emphasis to Pompey’s familial relationships as a motivating factor beyond raw ambition to establish a non-teleological history to explain the events of his life. Most notably, Pompey’s opposition to the special command of the Lex Gabinia emphasizes the incompatibility for success in both the public and private life and Pompey’s preference for the later. Pompey’s disposition for devotion and care permeates the boundary between the public and private to reveal that the happenings of his life outside the forum defined his actions within. 1 “Pompey was free from almost every fault, unless it be considered one of the greatest faults for a man to chafe at seeing anyone his equal in dignity in a free state, the mistress of the world, where he should justly regard all citizens as his equals,” (Velleius Historiae Romanae 2.29.4). The annals of history have not been kind to Pompey. Characterized by the unbridled ambition attributed as his impetus for pursuing the civil war, Pompey is one of history’s most one-dimensional characters. This teleological explanation of Pompey’s history oversimplifies the entirety of his life as solely motivated by a desire to dominate the Roman state. However, a closer examination of the events surrounding the passage of the Lex Gabinia contradicts this traditional portrayal.

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Epoka University IBAC 2012 vol.2 ALBANIAN SOLDIERS IN THE OTTOMAN ARMY DURING THE GREEK REVOLT AT 1821 ∗∗ Ali Fuat ÖRENÇ Introduction Ottoman Army organization had started to deteriorate from the mid-17th century. Military failures made the social and economic problems worse. In this situation, alternative potentials in the empire appeared because of the increasing military needs of the central government and the provincial governors. By the way, general employment of the Albanian warriors who were famous with their courage and strength became possible.1 There were a lot of reasons for employing Albanian warriors with salary while there was Ottoman regular army corps, including janissaries and soldiers from the states. Governing problems, had existed in the states and land system after the defeat in Vienne at 1683, was one of these reasons. Also after the end of the conquering era, the castles and fortresses at the borderlines were built for defense and there were not a necessary number of soldiers in these buildings. This problem was tried to by employing the warriors with long- matchlock-guns from Bosnia, Herzegovina and Albania.2 During the time, the necessity of mercenary increased too much as seen in the example of the Ottoman army which established for pressing the Greek Revolt in 1821, was almost composed of the Albanian soldiers.3 There were historical reasons for choosing Albanian soldiers in the Balkans. A strong feudal-system had existed in the Albanian lands before the Ottoman rule. This social structure, which consisted of the local connections and obedience around the lords, continued by integrating, first, timar (fief) system after the Ottoman conquest in 1385 and then, devshirme system.

TRADE AND SMUGGLING Maria Pia PEDANI University Ca'Foscari of Venice, Department of Historical Studies, I-30123 Venezia, Dorsoduro 3484/d e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT th In the 15 century sultans discovered the economic importance of the Adriatic. th They accepted doges' rule on this sea but, at the end of the 16 century, the presence of Christian and Muslim pirates marred the relations between the two states. Ottoman merchants used to cross the Adriatic to reach the markets of Venice and Ancona. Be- sides regular trade there was also smuggling: above all arms were exported to the Empire while wheat went westwards. Several links united the two commercial commu- nities: for instance, subjects of the Republic embarked sometimes on Ottoman ships; in the ports of the Serenissima the sultan's merchants used to pay the same customs as Venetians and, sometimes, they also insured themselves with Venetian companies. The th wars of the end of the 17 century put a momentary stop to Muslim commercial activi- ties in Venice and in the Adriatic. However, at the beginning of the following century, Albanian vessels charged with Ottoman goods appeared again at St. Mark's docks, even if soon after, in the 1720s', short-sighted Venetian protectionist politics pushed them to prefer the port of Trieste.

  • Animal Welfare and the Protection of Draft Animals in the Ottoman Fatwa¯ Literature and Legislation
    religions Article Be Gentle to Them: Animal Welfare and the Protection of Draft Animals in the Ottoman Fatwa¯ Literature and Legislation Necmettin Kızılkaya Faculty of Divinity, Istanbul University, 34452 Istanbul,˙ Turkey; [email protected] Received: 5 August 2020; Accepted: 16 October 2020; Published: 20 October 2020 Abstract: Animal studies in the Islamic context have greatly increased in number in recent years. These studies mostly examine the subject of animal treatment through the two main sources of Islam, namely, the Qur’an and the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad. Some studies that go beyond these two sources examine the subject of animal treatment through the texts of various disciplines, especially those of Islamic jurisprudence and law. Although these two research approaches offer a picture of how animal treatment is perceived in Islamic civilization, it is still not a full one. Other sources, such as fatwa¯ books and archive documents, should be used to fill in the gaps. By incorporating these into the pool of research, we will be better enabled to understand how the principles expressed in the main sources of Islam are reflected in daily life. In this article, I shall examine animal welfare and ( animal protection in the Ottoman context based on the fataw¯ a¯ of Shaykh al-Islam¯ Ebu’s-Su¯ ud¯ Efendi and archival documents. Keywords: animal welfare; animal protection; draft animals; Ottoman Legislation; Fatwa;¯ Ebussuud¯ Efendi In addition to the foundational sources of Islam and the main texts of various disciplines, the use of fatwa¯ (plural: fataw¯ a¯) collections and archival documents will shed light on an accurate understanding of Muslim societies’ perspectives on animals.

  • 1 a REVIEW of MUSLIM MARITIME TRADITION Omar Bin Yaakob
    A REVIEW OF MUSLIM MARITIME TRADITION Omar Bin Yaakob*, Mohamad Pauzi Abdul Ghani, Faizul Amri Adnan Marine Technology Centre, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 UTM, Johor Bahru, Johor * Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract The ocean covers more than 75% of the earth surface. This vast expanse of water promises a wealth of opportunities as well as challenges. This paper describes a historical perspective of development of maritime ventures in the Islamic World from the time of the Prophet (pbuh) until the present day. The expansion of the Muslim caliphate entailed among others rapid growth in communication and transport system as well as the need for a well-organised naval fleet. The peak of Muslim naval power was during the rule of the Ottoman Empire when their warships held sway over the Mediterranean, the Red Sea and parts of the Indian Ocean. A survey of the present status of maritime military, commercial, education and R&D capacity in Muslim countries is presented and proposals put forward for improving collaboration in this field. Keywords: Muslim maritime, maritime technology, economic impact, commercial ventures 1.0 Introduction The ocean, which covers more than 75% of the earth surface, supplies various needs of the human being. Besides the ubiquitous seafood, the ocean provides sources of various kinds of minerals and ornaments. It is a means of commerce, providing more than 95% of the transportation needs of international trade. For the coastal states, it is a means of defense while for the aggressive nations; the sea is an avenue for imperial expansions. In the latter half of the twentieth century, the ocean strategic and economic importance was enhanced particularly after the discovery of oil and gas in the Gulf of Mexico.

He started working as a sailor at an early age under his uncle Kemal Reis’ tutelage, a famous commander of the Ottoman navy, in the 16th century. 2 TS02K-Surveying History 1 5/29/2012 After the death of Kemal Reis in 1510, Piri Reis returned to Gallipoli and dedicated much of his time on his world map and his book, Kitab-ı Bahriye (Book of Navigation). In 1517, Piri Reis participated in the Ottoman’s campaign to Egypt as one of the Ottoman navy admirals and presented his world map dated 1513 to Sultan Selim the Conqueror. In his last mission, Piri Reis commanded an expedition against the Portuguese at Hormuz that failed in its goal of taking the citadel and executed in 1554 on the grounds of a debatable decision he had made as a commander to avoid direct confrontation with Portuguese navy. 3 TS02K-Surveying History WORKS First World Map of Piri Reis (1513) Second World Map of Piri Reis (1528) Kitab-ı Bahriye (1521-1526) 4 TS02K-Surveying History 2 5/29/2012 1513 – FIRST WORLD MAP of PİRİ REİS NORTH EUROPE AMERICA AFRICA SOUTH ATLANTIC AMERICA OCEAN Library of Topkapı Palace Museum 5 TS02K-Surveying History 61 cm 9 Colours gazelle skin 5 Compass roses 2 Scale bars 20 Unknown 8 Muslims 1 Christopher Columbus 86 cm 1 Arabic scale bar 4Portugal 34 REFERENCE MAPS compass rose 41 cm 6 TS02K-Surveying History 3 5/29/2012 7 TS02K-Surveying History 8 TS02K-Surveying History 4 5/29/2012 This country is inhabited.

  • Political and Economic Transition of Ottoman Sovereignty from a Sole Monarch to Numerous Ottoman Elites, 1683–1750S
    Acta Orientalia Academiae Scientiarum Hung. Volume 70 (1), 49 – 90 (2017) DOI: 10.1556/062.2017.70.1.4 POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC TRANSITION OF OTTOMAN SOVEREIGNTY FROM A SOLE MONARCH TO NUMEROUS OTTOMAN ELITES, 1683–1750S BIROL GÜNDOĞDU Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen Historisches Institut, Osteuropäische Geschichte Otto-Behaghel-Str. 10, Haus D Raum 205, 35394 Gießen, Deutschland e-mail: [email protected] The aim of this paper is to reveal the transformation of the Ottoman Empire following the debacles of the second siege of Vienna in 1683. The failures compelled the Ottoman state to change its socio- economic and political structure. As a result of this transition of the state structure, which brought about a so-called “redistribution of power” in the empire, new Ottoman elites emerged from 1683 until the 1750s. We have divided the above time span into three stages that will greatly help us com- prehend the Ottoman transition from sultanic authority to numerous autonomies of first Muslim, then non-Muslim elites of the Ottoman Empire. During the first period (1683–1699) we see the emergence of Muslim power players at the expense of sultanic authority. In the second stage (1699–1730) we observe the sultans’ unsuccessful attempts to revive their authority. In the third period (1730–1750) we witness the emergence of non-Muslim notables who gradually came into power with the help of both the sultans and external powers. At the end of this last stage, not only did the authority of Ottoman sultans decrease enormously, but a new era evolved where Muslim and non-Muslim leading figures both fought and co-operated with one another for a new distribution of wealth in the Ottoman Empire.
