| Abstract | "This book illustrates a page of Jewish Middle-Eastern history generally little known in the Anglophone world. The book will also be of interest to scholars of the history of Turkey and the Ottoman Empire, as well as to scholars of the relationship between nation-states and minority groups. As 2023 is the 100-year anniversary of the creation of the Turkish Republic, it will likely lead to renewed attention to its modern history and generate a greater uptake of related publications"-- Provided by publisher. |
