Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent (r.1520-1566) dominated the eastern
Mediterranean and Ottoman worlds - and the imagination of his
contemporaries - very much as his fellow sovereigns Charles V,
Francis I and Henry VIII in the west. He greatly expanded the
Ottoman empire, capturing Rhodes, Belgrade, Hungary, the Red Sea
coast of Arabia, and even besieging Vienna. Patron and legislator
as well as conqueror, he stamped his name on an age. These
specially-commissioned essays by leading experts examine Suleyman's
reign in its wider political and diplomatic context, both Ottoman
and European. The contributors are: Peter Burke; Geza David;
Suraiaya Faroqhi; Peter Holt; Colin Imber; Salih Uzbaran; Metin
Kunt; Christine Woodhead; and Ann Williams.
