Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Key protagonists in these debates included Erasmus, Luther and Machiavelli. Today we might call them intellectuals, yet mostly they did not travel, and direct contact with the Ottoman Empire was scarce or nonexistent. Nor were they well disposed to its predecessor, the Byzantine Empire, whose fall presented them with an intellectual conundrum: how were they to explain the irresistible advance of the Ottomans across the Balkans and the inability of Christian Europe to hold the line? They also felt compelled to incorporate this significant new threat into their vision of a world order, to rationalise it, to unravel its origins. These discussions spawned a common market of ideas in the fifteenth and sixteenth century, as Europeans debated and represented the Ottoman threat.

How the great minds of the West formed an image of the Ottoman Empire and of Eastern Europe in the fifteenth to seventeenth centuries, and the intellectual foundations of this construction, are the principal themes of Pippidi's pathbreaking book. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
