Occasions for Poetry: Politics, Literature, and Imagination Among the Early Modern Ottomans
Oscar Aguirre-Mandujano
Placing Ottoman court poetry in its social and historical context, Oscar Aguirre-Mandujano argues that poetry functioned as a political act. Aguirre-Mandujano examines the occasions that compelled the Ottomans to compose poetry, to present it to their superiors, to share it with their peers, and to spend considerable efforts and time to make poetry often and to make it well.
