Images, Objects, and Spaces: Representations of the Ottoman Turk in Early Modern England

我的项目将探讨奥斯曼视觉和物质文化对英国男性和女性的话语和日常实践的影响。使用跨学科的方法，以促进整体的观点，它旨在研究奥斯曼土耳其人在1650年和1750年之间的早期现代英国的对比和不断演变的代表。它旨在挑战当前狭隘学术中对“他者”的主导叙述，并将该问题纳入知识转移和商品消费的当代问题中。

My project will explore the influence of Ottoman visual and material culture on the discourses and everyday practices of English men and women. Using interdisciplinary approaches to promote a holistic perspective, it seeks to examine the contrasting and evolving representations of Ottoman Turks in early modern England between 1650 and 1750. It aims to challenge the predominant narrative of 'otherness' in the current narrow scholarship, and situate the issue within contemporary questions of the transfer of knowledge and consumption of goods.
