The Ottoman Empire and Its Heritage, Struggle for Domination in the Middle East: The Ottoman-Mamluk War, 1485-91: Philosophia Antiqua,, cartea 4

Autor Shai Har-El, S. Har-El
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 feb 1995
This two-part volume offers a comprehensive account of the conflict between the Ottoman and Mamluk Empires. Part One explores Ottoman-Mamluk relations from their inception in the middle of the 14th century to the laying of the foundations of the conflict in the second half of the 15th century. Part Two offers a detailed description of the actual war of 1485-91, and analyzes it from various angles including military, economic, and diplomatic. Based largely on Ottoman, Mamluk and Italian primary sources-documentary and narrative-the volume helps to understand the second and final war between the Ottomans and Mamluks in 1516-17, which resulted in the downfall of the Mamluk Empire and the firm establishment of Ottoman power in the Middle East.
