Some Conclusions; Chronology; Notes; Select Bibliography; IndexFor almost four hundred years, between the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and the Greek War of Independence, the history of Greece is shrouded in mystery. What was life really like for the Greeks under Ottoman rule? Was it a period of unremitting exploitation and enslavement for the Greeks until they were finally able to rise up against their Turkish overlords, as is the traditional, Greek nationalistic view? Or did the Greeks derive some benefit from Turkish rule? How did the Greeks and Turks co-exist for so long? And why are Greek attitudes towards Venice, who also controlled much of Greece TurksGreeceHistoryGreeceHistory1453-1821GreeceHistory323-1453TurkeyHistoryOttoman Empire, 1288-1918GreeceEthnic relationsGreeceSocial life and customs1453-1821Electronic books.TurksHistory.940.2Brewer David1932-860443MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462476303321Greece, the hidden centuries1919768UNINA
