Déchiffrer le passé d'un empire

Hommage à Nicolas Vatin et aux humanités ottomanes

Nicolas Vatin est l’auteur d’une œuvre importante sur l’histoire de l’Empire ottoman, tout particulièrement aux XVe-XVIe siècles. Au lendemain de son entrée à l’Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, 34 de ses amis et collègues travaillant dans neuf pays différents ont souhaité lui rendre hommage. Leurs travaux, en français et en anglais (un texte est en allemand), ont été réunis par Elisabetta Borromeo, Frédéric Hitzel et Benjamin Lellouch. Organisés en huit parties thématiques, ils reprennent les nombreux domaines d’étude de Nicolas Vatin: l’historiographie ottomane, la conquête ottomane, les relations diplomatiques entre Orient et Occident, les élites ottomanes, l’identité ottomane, la piraterie en Méditerranée, l’épigraphie funéraire…

Nicolas Vatin is the author of a major work on the history of the Ottoman Empire, especially during the 15th and 16th centuries.

Their contributions, written in French and English (and one in German), are edited by Elisabetta Borromeo, Frédéric Hitzel, and Benjamin Lellouch. Organized around eight themes, they touch on Nicolas Vatin’s numerous areas of study: Ottoman historiography, the Ottoman conquest, diplomatic relations between East and West, the Ottoman elites, Ottoman identity, piracy in the Mediterranean, funerary epigraphy…
