Since the Mediterranean connects cultures, Mediterranean studies
have by definition an intercultural focus. Throughout the modern
era, the Ottoman Empire has had a lasting impact on the cultures
and societies of the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean. However,
the modern Balkans are usually studied within the context of
European history, the southern Mediterranean within the context of
Islam. Although it makes sense to connect both regions, this is a
vast field and requires a command of different languages not
necessarily related to each other. Investigating both Greek and
Arabic sources, this book will shed some light on the significance
of ideas in the political transitions of their time and how the
proponents of these transitions often became so overwhelmed by the
events that they helped trigger adjustments to their own ideas.
Also, the discourses in Greek and Arabic reflect the provinces of
the Ottoman Empire and it is instructive to see their differences
and commonalities which helps explain contemporary politics.
