The establishment and survival of Ottoman rule in the Arab lands, 1516-1798; 2. Institutions of Ottoman rule; 3. Economy and society in the early modern era; 4. A world of scholars and saints: intellectual life in the Ottoman Arab lands; 5. The empire at war: Napoleon, the Wahhabis, and Mehmed Ali; 6. The Tanzimat and the time of re-Ottomanization; 7. The end of the relationship.The Ottomans ruled much of the Arab World for four centuries. Bruce Masters's work surveys this period, emphasizing the cultural and social changes that occurred against the backdrop of the political realities that Arabs experienced as subjects of the Ottoman sultans. The persistence of Ottoman rule over a vast area for several centuries required that some Arabs collaborate in the imperial enterprise. Masters highlights the role of two social classes that made the empire successful: the Sunni Muslim religious scholars, the ulama, and the urban notables, the acyan. Both groups identified with the Ottoman sultanate and were its firmest backers, although for different reasons. The ulama legitimated the Ottoman state as a righteous Muslim sultanate, while the acyan emerged as the dominant political and economic class in most Arab cities due to their connections to the regime. Together, the two helped to maintain the empire.ArabsTurkeyHistoryUlamaTurkeyHistoryElite (Social sciences)TurkeyHistorySocial changeTurkeyHistoryTurkeyHistoryOttoman Empire, 1288-1918TurkeyIntellectual lifeArabsHistory.UlamaHistory.Elite (Social sciences)History.Social changeHistory.305.892/705609034Masters Bruce Alan1950-645227UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910462873903321The Arabs of the Ottoman Empire, 1516-19182218728UNINA03034nam 2200589 450 991045815580332120200520144314.00-19-161958-2(CKB)2550000000067270(EBL)777005(OCoLC)763156370(SSID)ssj0001037886(PQKBManifestationID)12424323(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001037886(PQKBWorkID)11047397(PQKB)11403927(MiAaPQ)EBC777005(Au-PeEL)EBL777005(CaPaEBR)ebr11198114(EXLCZ)99255000000006727020170109h20112011 uy 1engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe chemical history of a candle /Michael Faraday ; edited and introduced by Frank A.

They also reflect how Faraday, the bookbinder's apprentice turned scientist, was a remarkable communicator of science.First published in 1861 they have remained continuously in print ever since. Covering a wide range of basic scientific knowledge, much of which still has relevance today, The Chemical History of a Candle draws out the science behind the candle flame; a familiar yet complex exampChemistryPopular worksCombustionPopular worksCandlesElectronic books.ChemistryCombustionCandles.540Faraday Michael19657James Frank A.
