Studies on Ottoman Science and Culture brings together eleven
articles by distinguished historian Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu. The book
addresses multiple issues related to the histories of science and
culture during the Ottoman era. Most of the articles contained in
this volume were the first contributions to their respective
topics, and they continue to provoke discussion and debate amongst
academics to this day. The first volume of the author's collected
papers that appeared in the Variorum Collected Studies (2004)
dispelled the negative opinions towards Ottoman science asserted by
scholars of the previous generation. In this new volume, the author
continues to explore and develop the paradigm of scientific
activities and cultural interactions both within and beyond the
Ottoman Empire. One of the topics examined is the attitude of
Islamic scholars towards revolutionary notions in Western science,
including Copernican heliocentrism and Darwin's theory of
evolution. This book will appeal to scholars and students of
Ottoman history, as well as those interested in the history of
science and cultural history. (CS1098).
