A six-century survey that treats the Ottomans not as a single static empire but as a polity that mutated from an Anatolian frontier principality into a world power and then into something a modernizing 19th century pulled apart, situated against Turkic, Islamic, and broader world history. You read İnalcık, Kafadar, and Shaw, sit through lectures and discussion, and produce a few short essays plus a take-home midterm where the work is arguing in writing rather than memorizing sultans. It is the standard entry point before any upper-level Ottoman or late-Ottoman/Turkish history course, and it doubles as a working answer to what "doing history" actually means.
