Description

Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Large roy. 8vo. (25 x 18 cm). Text in Turkish with an English preface and it includes first sentences of books in Ottoman script. 2 volumes set: ([Lxxxix], 396 p., 16 color plts.; 397-912 pp., 8 color plates.). This book contains entries for 1629 printed and manuscript works produced on Ottoman lands during the Ottoman period, on scientific subjects relating to geography, cosmography and cartography. The findings of this comprehensive survey show that advances were made in both western-and Eastern-oriented geographical sciences throughout the Ottoman period. Their parallel progress continued until Western-type geographical science became dominant in the 19th century following the establishment of universities which included geography in their curricula. The main center of geographical research was Istanbul.
