Dust jacket. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 25 cm). In English and Turkish. 212 p., color and b/w ills. The Swedish palace in Istanbul. A thousand years of cooperation between Turkey and Sweden.= Istanbul'da bir Isveç sarayi. Isveç ile Türkiye arasinda bin yillik isbirligi. Pre…face by Anna Lindth. Translated by Sevin Okyay. "One thousand years of Turkish-Swedish cooperation reflects fascinating aspects of the abundant contacts which mutual interests have fostered over decades and centuries. The Swedish Palace in Istanbul documents that relationship in both languages. Included are many beautiful illustrations and historic photos. Swedish Vikings served in the Byzantine army and were among the first to meet the Turkic peoples coming into Anatolia around one thousand years ago. Sweden and Turkey concluded commercial agreements in the 18th century and joined into military alliances that earned Sweden the honorary title of Turkey's oldest friend. In 1924 Sweden and the new Turkish Republic under Kemal Ataturk concluded a Treaty of Mutual Friendship and Cooperation. Since 1757 Sweden has owned a Palace in Istanbul, albeit a modest one, for her diplomatic missions. This site continues to retain its historical significance as a focal point of Turkish-Swedish relations, particularly in view of Turkey's status as a candidate to the European Union.".

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 47 x 35 cm, 220 pp. The Torch of the Ottoman Empire presents the life and work of a truly remarkable person, Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson, and through him, the Ottoman Empire of the late eighteenth century. In revolutionary Paris d'Ohsson published in 1789 what is maybe the best description… of the social history of the Ottoman Empire, Tableau General de I'Empire Othoman. D'Ohsson's book was extravagantly illustrated with the help of the best artists in Constantinople working for Abdulhamid I and Selim III. The most renowned artists of pre-revolutionary France then executed the gravures in Paris. Some motifs, reproduced also in this present book, still remain quite unique. Through these engravings, an intimate reality is revealed to us, bringing us very close to a universe long since vanished. A very heavy volume. The Torch of the Empire presents the life and work of a truly remarkable person, Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson, and through him, the Ottoman Empire of the late eighteenth century. Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson was a dragoman, an interpreter, at the Swedish Legation in Constantinople from around 1760. Although d'Ohsson was a Sultan's subject of French-Armenian origin, Sweden's King Gustav III made him a Swedish nobleman and trusted him to be his ambassador to the Sublime Porte. Mouradgea d'Ohsson thus performed an extraordinary journey, not only through the social classes of Ottoman society, but between civilizations. With outstanding scholars this book escorts us on a journey through the centuries to meet d'Ohsson and share his perspective on the Ottoman Empire and on European diplomacy of his time.

Text is in English and Turkish. 219, [1] pages. Lavishly illustrated (some in color). Notes. The Torch of the Ottoman Empire presents the life and work of a t…ruly remarkable person, Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson, and through him, the Ottoman Empire of the late eighteenth century. In revolutionary Paris d'Ohsson published in 1789 what is maybe the best description of the social history of the Ottoman Empire, Tableau General de I'Empire Othoman. D'Ohsson's book was extravagantly illustrated with the help of the best artists in Constantinople working for Abdulhamid I and Selim III. The most renowned artists of pre-revolutionary France then executed the gravures in Paris. Some motifs, reproduced also in this present book, still remain quite unique. Through these engravings, an intimate reality is revealed to us, bringing us very close to a universe long since vanished. Ignatius Mouradgea d'Ohsson (31 July 1740 - 27 August 1807) was an Armenian orientalist, historian and diplomat in Swedish service. In 1768 he was supreme interpreter, in its subsequent elevation to the Swedish nobility, he participated in the French-sounding names d'Ohsson. He was born at Pera, the European part of Istanbul, in 1740 as Ignatius Muradcan Tosunyan the son of a Catholic family. His father was an interpreter at the Swedish Embassy and followed his father by entering into the service of the Swedish embassy at the Ottoman Porte, and by his talents attained the highest diplomatic honours. He was made charge of affairs, knight of the order of Vasa and in 1782 minister plenipotentiary and envoy extraordinary. His knowledge of the Arabic language and Turkish languages gave him the means of acquiring information respecting the Ottoman Empire from the best sources. He resolved upon writing a history of Ottoman Sultan Selim II, but this was suspended by his plan of giving a full picture of the Ottoman Empire. To this work he devoted himself with the greatest zeal and perseverance, and with great difficulty succeeded in collecting the first authentic information from a prejudiced, servile, and jealous people, respecting and national customs and habitats, the interior of the seraglio, the mosques and the private life of a Turk. With the materials which he had obtained, he proceeded to Paris in 1784, where he prepared his work for the press, and published it in 1788 and 1789, in two volumes, under the title of "Tableau Général de l'Empire Othoman." This work completely answered the expectations which had been formed respecting it. The beauty of the typography and engravings occasioned an expense which exceeded the proceeds of the sale; but d'Ohsson who possessed a large fortune, was willing to make sacrifices for the embellishment and perfection of his work. The revolution interrupted his literary activity, and he returned to Constantinople. Sultan Selim III, who honoured knowledge, allowed the two volumes which were published to be presented to him, and, far from being displeased at the disclosure of some secrets, gave orders to facilitate the learned writer's researches by affording him the necessary information. After a long sojourn in Constantinople, d'Ohsson returned to Paris, where he found hardly any traces of his large property. Even the buildings where he had deposited the copies of his work, and the plates, drawings &c., had been destroyed and plundered. Without allowing himself to be depressed by these misfortunes, he devised a still greater plan, which had in view a historical picture of the whole East, and became entirely absorbed in his desire to execute it. In 1804 he had completely two volumes of his "Tableau Historique de l'Orient," when the war with Sweden made him apprehensive of another interruption. He asked and received permission from his government to retire to the country. Here he continued to occupy himself on his undertaking during three years, and gave the fruit of fifty-fou.

Condition: Very Good. Istanbul, Yapi Kredi Kültür Sanat, 2002. Elefantfolio (46x35 cm). 219 s. Rikt illustrerad. Dekorerat konstläderband med skyddsomslag. I kassett. Mycket påkostad utgåva om den svenska dragomanen Ignatius Mouradgea d?Ohsson, med engelsk och turkiskt parallelltext, och med tryckningen sponsrad av AstraZeneca.…Innehåller 10 olika artiklar bl.a. Philip Mansel, ?Franco-Ottoman, Franco-Swedish and Swedish-Ottoman Alliances?, Carter Vaughan Findler, ?Mouradgea d?Ohsson and his Tableau Général de l?Empire Othoman?, Abdeljelil Temini, ?The Mahometism in the Work of the Swedish Diplomat d?Ohsson?, Folke Ludwigs, ?Mouradgea?s last Years.Ignatius Mouradgea d?Ohsson (1740-1807) var välutbildad armenisk katolik i Istanbul och anställdes av Ulrik Celsing år 1763 som dragoman vid svenska beskickningen i Istanbul. En dragoman var tolk men hade även som uppgift att underlätta förbindelserna med Höga Porten. Han blev av Gustav III upphöjd till sekreterare vid beskickningen, framförallt för att på kungens vägnar hålla ett öga på ministern Celsing. Han adlades 1780, upphöjdes till riddare av Vasaorden 1783, och under åren 1795-99 innehade han själv posten som svensk minister i Konstantinopel. Mest känd är han dock för sitt stora arbete ?Tableau général de l?Empire Othoman? som utkom i tre stora folianter och rikt illustrerade med stora graverade planscher med motiv från det ottmanska riket. De två första delarna utkom år 1787 och är dedicerade till svenska kungen, och den tredje utkom postumt år 1824. Hardcover / Hardback.
