Central to the nineteenth-century Ottoman Tanzimat reform project,
the novel originally developed outside of Ottoman space, yet was
adopted as a didactic tool to model and generate new forms of
Ottoman citizenship. Essays in this book explore the appropriation
of the novel as a literary genre and its deployment in the late
Ottoman cultural project of constructing an Ottoman modernity.
Analyzing key texts and authors, from the works of Ahmet Midhat
Efendi to Mizanci Murad and Vartan Pasha, among others, the book's
chapters explore the novel genre as far more than a case of
importation of Western and non-Ottoman cultural productions, but
rather as a vehicle for the cultivation of indigenous modern
subjectivities.
