Publication Metadata only Shopping in late byzantium(2023-11-27) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.Publication Metadata only Conceptions of Time in George Pachymeres and Nikephoros Gregoras(2022-08-22) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.After a brief discussion of the notions of time in Late Byzantine history writing such as dating systems, chronology, perceptions of past and present, this paper will focus on the cases of George Pachymeres and Nikephoros Gregoras. How did the philosophical or ecclesiastical backgrounds of these historians influence their conceptions of time? The paper will discuss how Gregoras’ understanding of time fused philosophy, astronomy and history, whereas Pachymeres blended influences from the liturgy, the Old Testament and Aristotle. Thus, their conceptions of time essentially functioned as bridges between different disciplines and textual sources.Publication Metadata only The crusade of Nikopolis and its Aftermath: Views from Byzantine, French and Ottoman Sources(2023-12-01) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.Publication Metadata only Daily life encounters between the Byzantines and the Ottomans, 14-15th centuries(2022-05-17) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.Publication Metadata only Bizans Şiir Antolojisi, 4-15. yüzyıllar(Alfa Basım Yayım, 2022-12-01) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.Publication Open Access Daily Life Encounters Between the Byzantines and the Ottomans(2024-08-01) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.The Byzantines and the Ottomans were both rivals and neighbours. They were also in close cultural contact: they observed each other’s customs, clothing and food. Byzantine literary texts from this period, such as histories and dialogues on Christianity and Islam, are invaluable sources in this sphere, offering insight not only into these respective religions but also providing many instances of cultural encounters. This paper presents some vignettes of daily life encounters between the Byzantines and the Ottomans, especially exploring the Byzantines’ perception of the Ottomans’ customs and food. We will analyse selected passages from the history of John VI Kantakouzenos and the dialogues of Gregory Palamas and Manuel II Palaiologos from this perspective. We will discuss the authors’ perception and representation of the Ottomans as the “other” through depictions of food, customs and daily life routines. Furthermore, these accounts will be supplemented with some key travellers’ accounts, such as those of Ruy Gonzalez de Clavjio and Bertrandon de la Broqiuère. The representations of the Ottomans in these travellers’ accounts will be compared with those of the Byzantine authors. At the same time, the insights they offer into the lives of the Byzantines and the Ottomans will also be investigated. Keywords: Byzantine-Ottoman relations, religious dialogue, cultural history, history of food, late medieval Anatolia.Publication Metadata only Images of Byzantium in Count Belisarius(2024-10-12) ÇELİK, SİREN; Çelik S.
