Bütün osmanl tarihinin resim ve yazi ile hülasasi - 600 y l n resim ve yaz ile panoramas ("A Pictorial and Written Summary of the Whole of Ottoman History").

Descripción

An unusual pictorial history of the Ottoman empire, designed to be used by "students of all ages, from primary school to university", written by the history teacher Avni Alt ner and richly illustrated by Hürrem Atayer. The work begins with a family tree of the House of Osman, with lists showing the attributes of the different sultans (including how many went on state visits and how many were lovers of music). There follow collective biographies of the sultans and famous courtiers and a chronology of events in the empire from 1284 to 1922. Illustrated sections focus on famous land and sea battles in which the empire fought. There are also lists of first secretaries of state (sadrazamlar) and the foremost religious authorities ( eyhülislamlar) of the empire, as well as a chart dividing Ottoman history into periods and expounding the "reasons" for the rise and fall of the empire. A final tableau, based on an image that was printed in Vienna in 1900, contains colour medallion portraits of all 36 sultans (with the later rulers Sultan Vahdeddin and Sultan Re at added by the illustrator). Alt ner and Atayer also produced another illustrated atlas for Bak Kütüphanesi, illustrating the life and deeds of Mustafa Atatürk. Folio (485 x 345 mm), ff. [8]. Illustrations in colour and black and white throughout. Original boards with pictorial paper onlays, green linen spine. Publisher's stamp on front cover and first page, stamp of the headteacher's office of the Fatih - Aksaray primary school on first page. Binding professionally refurbished, boards and onlays a bit chipped, soiled, and worn, some marginal damp staining (boards a touch bowed, creasing of onlays and leaves), a few short marginal tears, with one to lower half of second leaf, illustrations remaining bright. A good copy. N° de ref. del artículo 156767
