Daniel Carkner🥀<p>it's about an earlier phase of his research, but the episode of Ottoman History Podcast with Ian was one of my faves:</p><p>"During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, hundreds of thousands of people from the Ottoman Empire and post-Ottoman states emigrated to the United States.

Nina S. Studer<p>This depiction of the former sultan of the Ottoman empire as an absinthe enthusiast is particularly interesting if we consider that Abdul Hamid II apparently did not drink alcohol as an adult.</p><p>On this, see, for example Abdulhamit Kırmızı's 2022 article "The Drunken Officials of Abdülhamid II: Alcohol Consumption in the Late Ottoman Bureaucracy" (<a href="https://journals.openedition.org/remmm/17780" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">journals.openedition.org/remmm</span><span class="invisible">/17780</span></a>)!</p><p><a href="https://historians.social/tags/DrinkingStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DrinkingStudies</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Orientalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Orientalism</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/OttomanEmpire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttomanEmpire</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Colonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Colonialism</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Absinthe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Absinthe</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a></p>
Nina S. Studer<p>In this sketch, an officer informs the former Ottoman sultan Abdul Hamid II that all his possessions have been confiscated, to which Abdul Hamid II says "Will I at least be left with enough to take my Oxygénée Cusenier before each meal?" - and is satisfied when being told yes: "Then everything is fine. Allah is great."</p><p>Amazing.</p><p><a href="https://historians.social/tags/DrinkingStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DrinkingStudies</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/HistoryOfAbsinthe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryOfAbsinthe</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Aperitif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Aperitif</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/OttomanEmpire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttomanEmpire</span></a></p>
Till Grallert<p>This is a first: فروق was an Ottoman newspaper published in Athens in 1911. But apparently they didn’t have access to movable-type and lithographed a handwritten paper using a printed template to print into. </p><p>Facsimiles are available from HTU at <a href="http://www.tufs.ac.jp/common/fs/asw/tur/htu/data/HTU0661/index.djvu" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">tufs.ac.jp/common/fs/asw/tur/h</span><span class="invisible">tu/data/HTU0661/index.djvu</span></a></p><p><a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/OttomanEmpire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttomanEmpire</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Greece" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Greece</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PeriodicalStudies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PeriodicalStudies</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Printing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Printing</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/lithography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lithography</span></a></p>
Early Modern Diplomacy<p>However, al-Ḥāǧǧ Yūsuf’s profile is closer to the trans-Saharan trader, who travelled back and forward than a professional <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/diplomat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>diplomat</span></a> in a modern sense. </p><p>Moreover, sources indicate that he travelled in company with other traders. According to Dewière, “In Saharan context, many traders were jurists and vice-versa.The religious and legal knowledge of Yūsuf must have been of great help for performing his business.” </p><p>al-Ḥāǧǧ Yūsuf might have gained from these missions, too. He probably used this charge to enlarge his social and economic capital and credit, as Dewière suggests. Thanks to these missions, he was able to reach Istanbul, Fes and Marrakesh and to establish contacts beyond Borno’s networks.

Early Modern Diplomacy<p>al-Ḥāǧǧ Yūsuf, a Islamic scholar, was active as <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/ambassador" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ambassador</span></a> of Borno between 1574 and 1583. During this period, we can find him in Istanbul, Borno, Morocco. These activities are closely connected to the expansion of the <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/OttomanEmpire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttomanEmpire</span></a> in North <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Africa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Africa</span></a>. Between 1574 and 1579, sultan Idrīs b. ‘Alī sent several embassies to Istanbul. In 1582 and 1583 al-Ḥāǧǧ Yūsuf was sent twice to Morocco to Aḥmad al-Manṣūr, probably in order to create an axis against the Ottomans, after the Moroccan sultan hade declared his full independency towards the Ottoman Empire. Overall, al-Ḥāǧǧ Yūsuf crossed the Sahara six times as a diplomat.
