The Rise of the Ottoman Empire

Zusatztext "Colin Heywood 's publication of Paul Wittek's Rise of the Ottoman Empire and other works... is almost as important as the publication of the original. Heywood has produced an outstanding! erudite work in commenting on Wittek's life and career... Heywood has succeeded in vigorously reasserting Wittek's indisputable place in Ottoman historiography and his own fine contribution to the same history. We all should be grateful to him not only for signalling Wittek's extraordinary contribution to Seljuki and Ottoman historiography but also for bringing to historians' attention many of Wittek's lesser-known works and clarifying their content and the circumstance of their writing." - Kemal H.
