Controversial scholarly debates around the beginnings of the
Ottoman Empire in the last century are not only rooted in the
scarcity or heterogeneity of sources, but also in the mentalities
and ideologies that canonised thought paradigms. This book uses an
interdisciplinary approach at the interface between Ottoman,
Byzantine, Mediterranean and Southeast European studies. Unusual
sources such as Western Anatolian numismatics and predominantly
European documents met innovative methods from the study of
violence and power networks. Making a case study around the
military akinci institution, the author re-evaluates the emergence
of the Ottoman polity in dealing with various warlords and across
multiple identities and political affiliations.
