From a Christian, Greek- and Armenian-speaking land to a
predominantly Muslim and Turkish speaking one, the Islamisation of
medieval Anatolia would lay the groundwork for the emergence of the
Ottoman Empire as a world power and ultimately the modern Republic
of Turkey. Bringing together previously unpublished sources in
Arabic, Persian and Turkish, Peacock offers a new understanding of
the crucial but neglected period in Anatolian history, that of
Mongol domination, between c. 1240 and 1380. This represents a
decisive phase in the process of Islamisation, with the
popularisation of Sufism and the development of new forms of
literature to spread Islam. This book integrates the study of
Anatolia with that of the broader Islamic world, shedding new light
on this crucial turning point in the history of the Middle East.
