Keshif https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif <p>Micro-Edition Call</p> <p>Deadline for <strong>Every Winter Issue</strong>: 5 December</p> <p>Deadline for <strong>Every Summer Issue</strong>: 5 June</p> <p>Ottoman Studies is a manuscript science, and all scholars who work on manuscripts know this situation: one "discovers" (Turkish <em>keşif</em> means "discovery") accidentally short texts in manuscripts--single poems, letters, contracts, and marginal notes of different, often private matters. Individually and by themselves, these discoveries are often only small pieces of the mosaic, fascinating and too good to ignore, but on the other hand of too little substance for publication on their own.</p> <p>By founding the journal <em>Keshif</em>, we aim to fulfill a desideratum that has long been keenly felt in scholarly circles for the treatment of precisely these kinds of texts.</p> <p>Our vision for <em>Keshif</em> is to provide a forum (and medium) for researchers to make these fragments accessible to a wider audience, including non-Ottomanists, i.e. to bring together the many pieces of the mosaic, such that complete pictures gradually emerge. <em>Keshif</em> is an electronic journal dedicated to collecting and editing small, fine texts and providing easy, free access to the material through a database with sound search functions.</p> <p><strong>Open Access Statement</strong></p> <p><em>Keshif</em> is an open-access journal, which means all its content is freely available without charge to the user or his/her institution. <em>Keshif</em> provides open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. <em>Keshif</em> operates under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. This allows others to distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon the work, even commercially, as long as they credit the authors for the original creation. All authors publishing in KESHIF accept these as the terms of publication.</p> Institut für Orientalistik en-US Keshif Summary of illegible or debatable words https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8613 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>Summary of illegible or debatable words</p> </div> </div> </div> Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 71 73 A Mülāzemet Memorandum (inhā) by Zekeriyazade Yahya Efendi, Kazasker of Rumelia https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8600 <p>A Mülāzemet Memorandum (inhā) by Zekeriyazade Yahya Efendi, Kazasker of Rumelia</p> Ercan Akyol Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 1 5 10.25365/kshf-24-01-01 The Seas of Neglected History: A Muslim-Ottoman Merchant’s Ordeal in Trieste https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8605 <p>The Seas of Neglected History: A Muslim-Ottoman Merchant’s Ordeal in Trieste</p> Zeynep Arslan Çalık Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 6 16 10.25365/kshf-24-01-02 The Love Ailment: A Prescription for a Lover https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8606 <p>The Love Ailment: A Prescription for a Lover</p> Zeynep Avcı Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 17 24 10.25365/kshf-24-01-03 An Ottoman Intelligence Report concerning Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots: Damsel in Distress https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8607 <p>An Ottoman Intelligence Report concerning Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots: Damsel in Distress</p> Ahmet Demirel Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 25 33 10.25365/kshf-24-01-04 A Prescription for Love Sickness https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8608 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>A Prescription for Love Sickness</p> </div> </div> </div> Hasan Doğan Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 34 41 10.25365/kshf-24-01-05 A Mixture of Sugar and Tail Fat: 17th Century Recipes for Pastry and Medicine https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8609 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>A Mixture of Sugar and Tail Fat: 17th Century Recipes for Pastry and Medicine</p> </div> </div> </div> Fatma Elcan Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 42 47 10.25365/kshf-24-01-06 A Chronogram Dating the Construction of the Mevlevi Lodge in Gelibolu https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8610 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>A Chronogram Dating the Construction of the Mevlevi Lodge in Gelibolu</p> </div> </div> </div> Saba Dilşad Kocatürk Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 48 52 10.25365/kshf-24-01-07 One Era, Two Sultans of Words: A Story About Karamanlı Nizâmî and Ahmed Paşa https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8611 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>One Era, Two Sultans of Words:&nbsp;A Story About Karamanlı Nizâmî and Ahmed Paşa</p> </div> </div> </div> Uğur Öztürk Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 53 63 10.25365/kshf-24-01-08 Ottoman Relations with the Danubian Principalities during the Fifteen Years War (1591-1606) https://journals.univie.ac.at/index.php/keshif/article/view/8612 <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <div class="page" title="Page 1"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>Ottoman Relations with the Danubian Principalities during the Fifteen Years War (1591-1606)</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> Samuel Stevens Copyright (c) 2024 Keshif 2024-03-18 2024-03-18 2 1 64 70 10.25365/kshf-24-01-09
