Generating a New Image for Cultural Heritage: Model for Preserving the Typical Image of the Traditional Turkish Coffeehouse
Sustainability Today 401 Generating a new image for cultural heritage: model for preserving the typical image of the traditional Turkish coffeehouse N. Ayalp & A. Müge Bozday TOBB University, Turkey Abstract The aim of the study is to create a model for a reusing a specific cultural setting. Traditional Turkish coffeehouses are selected as a traditional environment. The coffeehouse, which has been used in Turkey since the sixteenth century, is one of the most significant places in the country’s cultural heritage. Coffeehouses are one of the public spaces that represent the place identity of Turkish culture. During the Ottoman period, with their frequent use, people helped these places gain place identities. Moreover, not just the space but the ways in which people become socialized represent an intangible part of our cultural heritage. However, previous studies indicate that this cultural value has not been sufficiently transferred to the present day. This study identifies the traditional Turkish coffeehouse as contributing to both tangible and intangible cultural heritage and generates a model for interpreting the coffeehouse in terms of a contemporary place identity. In order to do this, the concept of place, place identity, and social identity is discussed. Turkish coffeehouses are analyzed to identify and their typical spatial elements. In the conclusion, a model for preserving the typical image of the traditional Turkish coffeehouse is presented. Keywords: traditional Turkish coffeehouses, place, place identity, social identity, typical elements in Turkish coffeehouses’ interiors. 1 Introduction: discussion of Turkish coffeehouses within a conceptual framework In order to safeguard a place that has a cultural value, it is not sufficient to discuss just its material attributes. -

Primarily, the thesis builds a historical analysis of the Ottoman coffee houses and their significant place in the Ottoman Istanbul’s public life; and it studies the coffee house as a highly popular public space, from the Habermasian and Sennettian perspectives regarding its functions and desirable functions in the society. Habermas’ public sphere model of the eighteenth century, essentially its exclusion of women, and the quintessentially male character of the urban flaneur of the nineteenth century are discussed and linked to the contemporary public condition in Istanbul. -
Bozahouses, Coffeehouses and Taverns in the Light of the 16 and 17 Century Court Records of Istanbul

Since these businesses were both work and meeting places for people from various backgrounds, they are supposed to contribute to the intercommunal relations. In order to explore this issue, I used the court records as main primary sources as they offer a variety of information about the sale, exchange and disposal of these commercial enterprises as well as the social environment in which they were operated. Besides, most of the secondary sources discuss these businesses by focusing on certain patterns such as historical formation and political control which can be gleaned from a variety of primary sources, but their public character has not been analyzed in consideration of intercommunal relations through the court records. -

The Palace and the Coffeehouse: the Power of Place in Ottoman History
The Palace and the Coffeehouse: The Power of Place in Ottoman History, 1300-1800 A Part II Special Subject Dr Helen Pfeifer 2020-2021 The Topkapi Palace in Istanbul was the seat of the Ottoman sultan and the centre of one of the largest and most powerful empires in early modern Eurasia. The coffeehouse, a sixteenth-century Ottoman invention, was the seat of the urban classes and the centre of city life from Belgrade to Baghdad. Different as these two institutions were in their character and clientele, they were neck and neck when it came to their influence on Ottoman politics, society, and culture. This paper examines the power of place in Ottoman history from 1300-1800. Each week introduces students to a new space and to the opportunities or challenges it presented. Many of these spaces will lead us to consider the nature of imperial rule, from the contested frontier zone from which the Ottoman polity emerged; to the capital city that buttressed its imperial claims; to the seas and deserts that continually tested its sovereignty. Other spaces will allow us to consider key social and cultural issues, including the visibility of women, the acceptability of homosexual relations, and the experiences of minority groups like Christians and Jews. Throughout, students will be 1 asked to reflect on the ways in which physical space was not just a neutral backdrop to historical events, but helped shape the possibilities of historical actors and the relations between them. The Michaelmas term is organized chronologically. After an introductory class devoted to the so-called ‘spatial turn’, the remaining seven sessions will examine key spaces in which political and social relations were negotiated as the empire evolved from a minor frontier polity into a world power. -

Coffee has the ability to act as a social unifier and a catalyst for intellectual interaction. Recent decades have experienced a dramatic increase in coffee culture which has resulted in a revival of the social café atmosphere. This revitalization has taken hold in numerous cultures that have transformed the beverage by adopting new processes of brewing and new tools for serving. Within this transformation coffee’s connection with the exchange of social conventions has remained a constant. The integration of social ease and scholarly thought began within the confines of coffeehouses in the Ottoman Empire. A significant amount of historical research has been devoted to European coffeehouses which were adopted from the Ottomans. Within this research Ottoman coffeehouses and their development of safe, social spaces have been largely ignored. The complex cultural exchange between the Ottomans and the Europeans was complicated by European ignorance rooted in the Ottoman acquisition of Constantinople. -
France in the Levant: Trade and Immaterial Circulations in the “Long Eighteenth Century”
Journal of early modern history 24 (2020) 383-406 brill.com/jemh France in the Levant: Trade and Immaterial Circulations in the “Long Eighteenth Century” David Celetti University of Padova, Italy [email protected] Abstract The article analyzes aspects of French trade in the Levant during the eighteenth century by tracing the link between commercial exchange, institutions, and socio- cultural interaction within the system of French échelles in the Eastern Mediterranean. As the paper argues, this trade not only acquired a primary relevance within Ottoman and French economies but also created institutional and social interdependencies that prefigured nineteenth-century developments. The study discusses how economic, institutional, and social aspects are highly intertwined, each of them playing a core role in explaining the relevance of the French presence in the Early Modern Eastern Mediterranean. Keywords Early Modern Levant – France – Ottoman Empire – Mediterranean trade – diplomacy – economic development – economic dependency Introduction In 1754, Claude-Joseph Vernet completed his painting Intérieur du Port de Marseille vu du Pavillon de l’Horloge du Parc.1 The work offers a fascinating glimpse into French Levant trade as viewed from Marseilles, giving figurative 1 Leon Lagrange, Les Vernets: Antoine, Joseph, Carle, Horace (Paris, 1864), 70-87.

Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-00876-2 - Nature and Empire in Ottoman Egypt: An Environmental History Alan Mikhail Frontmatter More information NATURE AND EMPIRE IN OTTOMAN EGYPT In one of the first environmental histories of the Ottoman Empire, Alan Mikhail examines relations between the empire and its most lucrative province of Egypt. Based on both the local records of vari- ous towns and villages in rural Egypt and the imperial orders of the Ottoman state, this book charts how changes in the control of natu- ral resources fundamentally altered the nature of Ottoman imperial sovereignty in Egypt and throughout the empire. In revealing how Egyptian peasants were able to use their knowledge and experience of local environments to force the hand of the imperial state, Nature and Empire in Ottoman Egypt tells a story of the connections of empire stretching from canals in the Egyptian countryside to the palace in Istanbul, from Anatolian forests to the shores of the Red Sea, and from a plague flea’s bite to the fortunes of one of the most powerful states of the early modern world.

Muslim Distinction: Imitation and the Anxiety of Jewish, Christian, And
Muslim Distinction: Imitation and the Anxiety of Jewish, Christian, and Other Influences Youshaa Patel Graduate Program in Religion Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Ebrahim Moosa, Supervisor ___________________________ Bruce Lawrence ___________________________ Leela Prasad ___________________________ Carl Ernst Dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate Program in Religion in the Graduate School at Duke University 2012 ABSTRACT Muslim Distinction: Imitation and the Anxiety of Jewish, Christians, and Other Influences by Youshaa Patel Graduate Program in Religion Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Ebrahim Moosa, Supervisor ___________________________ Bruce Lawrence ___________________________ Leela Prasad __________________________ Carl Ernst An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate Program in Religion in the Graduate School at Duke University 2012 Copyright by Youshaa Patel 2012 ABSTRACT Contrary to later Muslim tradition, the first Muslims initially looked favorably upon assimilating Jewish and Christian religious and cultural practices. As Muslim collective religious identity conjoined with political power, Muslims changed their religious policy from imitation to distinction; they began to define themselves both above and against their archreligious rivals. They visibly and publicly materialized their unique brand of monotheism into a distinct religious community. This dissertation is the first attempt to map the Muslim religious discourse that expressed this deliberate turn away from Jews, Christians, and others across premodern Islamic history. First, I argue that this discourse functions as a prism through which to view the interplay of religion and politics; a key function of both empire and religion in a premodern Muslim context was to uphold hierarchical social distinctions.
