151. Istanbul's Historical Soundscape

Istanbul is full of landmarks and objects dating to the Ottoman period that give us a glimpse of the city's material culture. However, the scents and sounds that made up the urban experience of Ottoman Istanbul often elude us. In our inaugural episode of Season 4, we explore the sounds of Istanbul today and link them to city of the Ottoman past.

152. Temporal Culture in the Ottoman Empire.

In daily life, time appears as an unavoidable fact. It marches forward uniformly, and much like money, is a fungible commodity that can be spent, wasted, and saved. However, this view often obscures the fact that our engagement with time is mitigated through socially-constructed ways of understanding, measuring, and using time. In this episode, Chris Gratien talks to Anver Wishnizter about his research in this realm of social time--what he describes as "temporal culture"--and the changes in such a temporal culture during the late Ottoman period.

153. Oceans of Grass and Seas of Sand

If geography is the stage for social activity, how do geographical settings impact the form of the human drama? In this episode, we discuss wide expanses such as seas, plains, and deserts along with their adjacent coasts or "littorals" in an attempt to identify parallels between different types of geographic zones and what they mean for the study of comparative and global history.

This episode offers an interview by Ryan Gingeras with Donald Quartaert in 2008 about his monograph entitled Miners and the State in the Ottoman Empire (2006). During his decades of activity as a scholar, Donald Quataert was one of the foremost scholars within the field of Ottoman history and in many ways a pioneering figure in the study of Ottoman labor history, particularly among Anglophone scholars. Educated during a period when most scholarship was focused heavily on the Ottoman state and dynasty, Quataert took up the challenging task of studying the lived experience of ordinary workers. This work on the coalfields of Zonguldak, which relied in part on Ottoman sources originating in the region of Zonguldak itself, offers a rare window into the life of Ottoman miners and how it was similar and different in comparison with their fellow miners elsewhere. (Miners and the State in the Ottoman Empire is available in Turkish as Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nda Madenciler ve Devlet)

Ryan Gingeras is an Assistant Professor at the Naval Postgraduate School (faculty page).
Donald Quataert was Distinguished Professor of History at State University of New York, Binghamton.

155. Türkiye Modernleşme Tarihi'nin Kayıp Özneleri

Bu podcastımızda Osmanlı’da İşçiler (1870-1922) kitabının yazarı, İstanbul Üniversitesi İktisat Fakültesi öğretim üyesi Kadir Yıldırım’la Osmanlı işçi hareketi ve emek tarihi yazımının tarihyazımsal gelişimini, kaynaklarını ve temel kavramlarını masaya yatırıyoruz. Bu bölümle, geçen hafta Soma’da yitirdiğimiz madencilerimizi ve Çalışma ve Sosyal Güvenlik Bakanlığı verilerine göre sadece 2002’den bu yana sayıları 14.000’i bulan iş kazalarında kaybettiğimiz tüm işçilerimizi anmaya çalışıyoruz. Bu söyleşi ayrıca, iş kazalarının “doğal afet, kader, işin doğası, fıtratı” olarak nitelendirilip nitelendirilemeyeceğini tartışmasını yeniden gündeme taşıyor.

156. After the Ottomans and Byzantines

The emergence of nationalism in the Balkans entailed a reconfiguration of historical space and time. Nationalist historians struggled in particular in dealing with the imperial heritage of the Ottoman and Byzantine pasts. In this episode, Dimitris Stamatopoulos explores how the historians of the Balkans' various national communities addressed the question of empire and the long legacies of the Byzantine and Ottoman states.

	Dimitris Stamatopoulos is an Associate Professor in the Department of Balkan, Slavic and Oriental Studies at the University of Macedonia, Thessaloniki and author of several publications on the history of the Christian Orthodox populations of the Ottoman Empire.
	Kalliopi Amygdalou is a doctoral candidate in the Bartlett School of Architecture at University College in London working on the relationship between national historiographies and the built environment in Greece and Turkey (see academia.edu)

157.The Image of an Ottoman City

While architectural historians are often concerned with the design, inception, and construction of buildings and objects, writing the history of architecture also includes the study of renovations, modifications, and changes in use of such spaces embedded in political and social contexts. In this episode, Heghnar Watenpaugh revisits her 2004 monograph entitled The Image of an Ottoman City in a discussion of Ottoman interventions into the historical urban geography of the empire's third largest city, Aleppo, and talks about methods of reconstructing the lived urban environment of a city in Ottoman Syria.

158. Microcosms of Modernity

While humans have devised no shortage of ways to punish each other throughout history, the rise of the prison and incarceration as a method for dealing with crime is primarily a nineteenth century phenomenon.

159. Delilik, Toplum ve Siyaset

Yüzyıllar boyunca Tanrı’nın kimi zaman gizemi kimi zaman gazabı varsayılan delilik ve deliler, ondokuzuncu yüzyıl modernleşme düşüncesi ve pratikleri ile tıbbın ve psikiyatrinin temel konusu oldu. Deliliğin modern anlamda biyolojik nedenleri icat ve mekanları inşa edildi. Tanzimat’la beraber, tıbbi pratikler ve kamu sağlığı toplumsal düzenin sağlamanın temel araçlarından biri haline gelince, deliliğin ve delilerin Süleymaniye Medresesi’nde başlayan tarihi 1873’te Toptaşı Bimarhanesi’ne ve oradan da bugünkü Bakırköy Ruh ve Sinir Hastalıkları Hastahanesi’ne taşındı. Bu bölümde, Fatih Artvinli ile Osmanlı’nın son yüzyılında deliliğin Osmanlı toplumundaki anlamı ve mekanları üzerinden siyaset ve toplumla olan ilişkisini ele aldık.

161.After the Genocide

The World War I period irrevocably changed the life of Ottoman Armenians and ultimately heralded the end of Christian communities throughout most of Anatolia. However, following the Ottoman defeat in the war, the brief Armistice period witnessed efforts by Armenians in Istanbul to reconstitute their community in the capital. In this episode, Lerna Ekmekçioğlu explores these efforts and in particular activities to locate and gather Armenian orphans and widows dislocated by war and genocide.

	Lerna Ekmekçioğlu is Assistant Professor of History at MIT. Her research focuses on the intersections of minority identity and gender in the modern Middle East. (see faculty page)
	Chris Gratien is a doctoral candidate at Georgetown University researching the social and environmental history of the Ottoman Empire and the modern Middle East. (see academia.edu)

163. Los Otomanos y los Habsburgos

Traductores, diplomáticos, comerciantes, así como otras personalidades que generalmente caracterizan los contactos entre las diversas entidades políticas del mundo mediterráneo, sólo representan una de las muchas formas de interacción política, diplomática y comercial del mundo pre-moderno. En este episodio, Emrah Safa Gürkan precisamente explora el papel que jugaron los espías en la dinámica y cambiante relación entre el Imperio Otomano y el Imperio Habsburgo. Al examinar las conexiones informales existentes entre estos dos imperios, Gürkan trae al proscenio de la historia política, diplomática y militar, sujetos históricos cuyas historias fueron relevantes, justamente, por ocurrir tras bambalinas.

	Emrah Safa Gurkan es profesor en el departamento de estudios internacionales de la Universidad İstanbul 29 Mayıs. Su trabajo se centra en la historia del Imperio Otomano y el mundo Mediterráneo pre-moderno. (vease academia.edu)

165. The Making of an Archive

While Lebanon is home to a rich base of historical sources, the nature of public institutions and the impacts of the long civil war have resulted in a situation wherein archival documents are decentralized and spread across many private institutions. In this episode, we interview the directors of a new archival collection in Lebanon at Université Saint-Esprit de Kaslik (USEK), which is fast becoming a repository of collections of documents, registers, and personal papers from throughout Lebanon.

Joseph Moukarzel is Director of the Phoenix Center for Lebanese Studies at USEK. He holds a PhD in History from Université de la Sorbonne - Paris IV. (see academia.edu)
Elie Elias is communications director at the Phoenix Center and a doctoral candidate at USEK. (see academia.edu)
Graham Pitts is a doctoral candidate at Georgetown University researching the environmental history of the Middle East and in particular modern Lebanon. (see academia.edu)

166. The Censored Past

While state support of archives enables the production of history, state control of archives can often hinder it. In Israel, the nature of the expulsion of Palestinians in 1948, an event in known in Arabic as the Nakba, has been at the center of political debates of the archives for decades. In this episode, Shay Hazkani explains the way state actors have and continue to use the archive to influence the historical memory of 1948 and explores the slippages that reveal this process.

	Shay Hazkani is a doctoral candidate at New York University’s Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies and the Department of History. His research focuses on socio-cultural history of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
	Chris Gratien is a doctoral candidate at Georgetown University researching the social and environmental history of the Ottoman Empire and the modern Middle East. (see academia.edu)

168. Life and Death in the Ottoman Countryside

Although seldom presented as such, famine, hunger, and disease were major forces influencing and shaping life in the countryside of the Ottoman Empire from its beginning until its final years. In this episode, we discuss the global conversation surrounding famine, colonialism, and the world economy during the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. Özge Ertem weighs in with a discussion of her research on Anatolian famines of the 1870s, which claimed more than a quarter-million lives, and Graham Pitts talks about famine in Mount Lebanon during the First World War, which killed roughly a third of the population in that region.

169. Science and the Stars

The movements of celestial bodies had long been of tremendous importance within the social and religious spheres throughout the Muslim world. As new understandings of space and time began to emerge during the nineteenth century, longstanding astronomical practices in places such as Egypt witnessed a profound transformation. In this episode, Daniel Stolz discusses the importance of astronomy in nineteenth-century Egypt and the overlapping scientific traditions they practiced.
