Late Ottoman Bosnia and the Imperial Afterlife

August 28, 2015

Original air date: 28 August 2015 | The Treaty of Berlin in 1878
brought an Austro-Hungarian occupation to many parts of the Balkans
such as Bosnia that had lived under Ottoman rule for centuries. While
this was certainly a historical rupture, as Leyla Amzi-Erdoğdular
emphasizes, this period also witnessed some important continuities
with the Ottoman past. In this episode, we discuss Dr.
Amzi-Erdoğdular's ongoing book project regarding those continuities
and examine the lives of Ottoman Muslims of Bosnia between two
empires.
