Men of Modest Substance: House Owners and House Property in Seventeenth-Century Ankara and Kayseri - Cambridge Studies in Islamic Civilization
Suraiya Faroqhi
This study of two contrasting towns in Anatolia focuses on their domestic environment. Through her use of documents from the kadi registers of Ankara and Kayseri, Dr Faroqui follows changes in patterns of house ownership over approximately a century. The urban society thus revealed differs from the patterns generally associated with the 'Islamic city' model.
