Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This captivating exploration of life in Turkey during the 19th century is based on the author's intimate knowledge of the country at that time. Blending social, historical and political commentary, this book provides a unique insight into the complexities of domestic life in the Ottoma…n Empire. At its heart, the volume considers the role of the harem, an institution often presented as the very symbol of female oppression and licentiousness. Here, the author provides a more rounded view, discussing the circumstances in which women lived, the status of slavery, and how family ties were maintained despite the practice of polygamy. Beginning with a discussion of traditional family structures and the impact of Islam, the author progresses through the complex roles and duties of different family members to highlight how tradition and religion intertwined with the evolving social and political landscape of the period. This book is a fascinating read for those interested in a nuanced understanding of Turkish culture and society as it existed during the later years of the Ottoman Empire.
