Zusammenfassung: | Angaben zur beteiligten Person Conermann: Prof Dr Stephan Conermann teaches the History of the Islamicate World at the Institute of Oriental and Asian Studies, University of Bonn. Angaben zur beteiligten Person Şen: Dr. Gül Şen ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Institut für Orient- und Asienwissenschaften der Universität Bonn. Angaben zur beteiligten Person Wagner: Dr Veruschka Wagner is a historian of the Ottoman Empire and a Researcher at Bonn University. "Slaves and Slave Agency in the Ottoman Empire offers a new contribution to slavery studies relating to the Ottoman Empire. Given the fact that the classical binary of 'slavery' and 'freedom' derives from the transatlantic experience, this volume presents an alternative approach by examining the strong asymmetric relationships of dependency documented in the Ottoman Empire. A closer look at the Ottoman social order discloses manifold and ambiguous conditions involving enslavement practices, rather than a single universal pattern. The authors examine various forms of enslavement and dependency with a particular focus on agency, i. e. the room for maneuver, which the enslaved could secure for themselves, or else the available options for action in situations of extreme individual or group dependencies"--Back cover |
