Children and Childhood in the Ottoman Empire cover

Ottoman attitudes towards children on the part of adults, religious institutions and the state from the 15th to the early 20th century are explored in this volume. Specialists in the social history of the Ottoman Empire as a whole, in regions ranging from Anatolia, through the Arab provinces to the Balkans, respond to recent theoretical calls to recognise children as active agents in history.
