The practice of petitioning the Ottoman Sultan was a well-known
institution which existed in one form or another throughout Ottoman
history and enabled Ottoman subjects, far from the capital of
Istanbul, to convey their grievances directly to the supreme ruler.
Here, Yuval Ben-Bassat examines the petitions, including many
previously unpublished ones, sent during the last decades of the
Empire to the Ottoman Sultan Abdulhamid II. The petitions enable
Ben-Bassat to explore Palestine's history in this formative period
from a unique perspective, providing first-hand accounts of the
dilemmas, struggles, acts, concerns, schisms and transformations
Palestinian society experienced. Petitioning the Sultan will be of
great interest to a broad audience of specialists studying the
history of the Middle East, the Ottoman Empire, and Palestine's
late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century world.
