Beschreibung

In this original study, Will Smiley reassesses an aspect of the legacy of the Ottoman-Russian wars in the eighteenth century: both empires had a long history of slavery, but in the course of the eighteenth century they worked out a new regional international law that transformed captivity, introducing the concept of prisoners of war.

Leserkritik

This is an extensively detailed history of Ottoman Turkish relations primarily but not entirely with the Russian Empire, the Hapsburgs, and the West, dealing with the numerous wars in which it was involved between 1700 and 1876... Recommended
