Summary:
"In the Name of the Ottoman Sultan" examines the role of Ottoman envoys sent to Venice from the conquest of Istanbul to the Cretan War. These envoys were a crucial part of the Ottoman Empire's foreign policy and military strategies.
The conquest of Istanbul in 1453 by Mehmed II marked a significant turning point in the expansion and consolidation of the Ottoman Empire. Following the conquest, the Ottomans frequently clashed with the Venetian Republic over control of the Mediterranean.
The Cretan War (1645-1669) involved a series of conflicts between the Ottoman Empire and the Venetian Republic over the control of the island of Crete, ultimately resulting in an Ottoman victory.
During these conflicts, the Venetian Republic frequently sent and received envoys. These envoys were employed for various purposes, including conducting diplomatic relations, negotiating peace, and exchanging information during wartime. Envoys sent in the name of the Ottoman sultans played a strategic role in protecting and enhancing the empire's expanding borders.
Overall, the book provides a valuable perspective on the political and military dynamics of the Ottoman Empire from the conquest of Istanbul to the Cretan War.
