Writing history ?from the bottom?, by treating the Ottoman Empire and other countries as ?subjects of history?, reduces the importance of political borders for doing historical research. Each social, economic and religious group had its own world-view and in most of the cases the borders of these communities were not identical with the political frontiers. Regarding the Ottoman Empire and the other early modern states as systems of different ecumenical communities rather than only as political units offers a different approach to a better understanding of the various ways in which their subjects interacted. In this context the term ecumenical community designates social, religious and economic groups building up cross-border communities. Different ecumenical communities overlapped within the boundaries of a state or in a specific area and gave them their distinctive characters. This festschrift for Suraiya Faroqhi aims to describe some of the close contacts between various ecumenical communities within and beyond the Ottoman borders. 410 0$aOttoman Empire and its heritage ;$v39. 606 $aReligious minorities$zTurkey$xHistory 606 $aReligious minorities$zMediterranean Region$xHistory 607 $aTurkey$xHistory$yOttoman Empire, 1288-1918 607 $aTurkey$xCivilization$y1288-1918 607 $aTurkey$xReligion 607 $aTurkey$xEthnic relations$xHistory 607 $aMediterranean Region$xReligion 607 $aMediterranean Region$xEthnic relations$xHistory 607 $aTurkey$xForeign relations 607 $aTurkey$xForeign economic relations 615 0$aReligious minorities$xHistory. 615 0$aReligious minorities$xHistory. 676 $a956/.015 701 $aFaroqhi$b Suraiya$f1941-$0315351 701 $aCostantini$b Vera$01198740 701 $aKoller$b Markus$f1972-$01579835 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792130103321 996 $aLiving in the Ottoman ecumenical community$93860210 997 $aUNINA
