Upućujemo na snimku na Youtube kanalu predavanja Vjerana Kursara i rasprave dijela autora tekstova i zainteresirane publike o knjizi „Evliya Çelebi in the Borderlands: New Insights and Novel Approaches to the Seyahatname (Western Balkans and Iran Sections)“ odžane u ponedjeljak, 13. prosinca 2021. u virtualnom obliku na Sveučilištu Boğaziçi, o čemu smo prethodno obavijestili.
In this talk, Vjeran Kursar will present the book Evliya Çelebi in the Borderlands: New Insights and Novel Approaches to the Seyahatname (Western Balkans and Iran Sections) he co-edited with Nenad Moačanin and Kornelija Jurin Starčević, and discuss some of its important aspects. The book is closely focused on two borderlands of the Ottoman Empire, the Western Balkans, bordering the territories of the Republic of Venice and the Habsburg Monarchy in the west, and Safavid ruled Iran and Azerbaijan in the east. Such conception provides an opportunity for a comparison between the eastern and the western borderlands of the Ottoman Empire, concerning topics related to economic and social history, urbanization, ethnic and confessional relations, and others. Evliya’s own attitudes toward borderland locals, Muslims and non-Muslims, Christian “infidels” and Shi’ite “heretics,” are particularly interesting. The second part of the book deals with issues of reception and use of the Evliya Çelebi’s travelogue’s editions and translations in historiography of countries of the Western Balkans in comparison with the original manuscript and the new manuscript based uncensored edition (YKY).
