Abstract

antagonistic dichotomies such as legal/illegal. Can aims to reveal that the conventional and Eurocentric understandings cannot map the Ottoman experience’s entangled dynamics. That leads to another well-accomplished aim of this book, which broadens one’s categories of understanding about “the genealogy of Ottoman subjecthood” (179) by adding the local experiences, circumstances, and stories of hajjis, which could be one of the representatives of the whole entangled picture of Ottoman sovereignty. Finally, it would not be an exaggeration to claim that Can makes neat and thought-provoking contributions to both the literature of Ottoman history and religion, which also puts her theoretical discussions beyond the field of Ottoman studies. Considering all the discussions mentioned above and thanks to the book’s firm and comprehensive language, I highly recommend it for academic circles and non-academics interested in Ottoman history and the sociology of religion.

书评：阿里·沙里亚蒂扩展社会学经典

对立的二分法，如合法/非法。Can旨在揭示传统的和以欧洲为中心的理解无法映射奥斯曼经历的纠缠动态。这导致了本书另一个圆满完成的目标，它通过添加朝觐的当地经历、环境和故事，拓宽了人们对“奥斯曼臣民谱系”（179）的理解类别，朝觐可能是整个奥斯曼主权混乱图景的代表之一。最后，可以毫不夸张地说，Can对奥斯曼历史和宗教文学都做出了精辟而发人深省的贡献，这也使她的理论讨论超越了奥斯曼研究领域。考虑到上面提到的所有讨论，并感谢这本书坚定而全面的语言，我强烈推荐学术界和对奥斯曼历史和宗教社会学感兴趣的非学者阅读。

期刊介绍： Critical Research on Religion is a peer-reviewed, international journal focusing on the development of a critical theoretical framework and its application to research on religion. It provides a common venue for those engaging in critical analysis in theology and religious studies, as well as for those who critically study religion in the other social sciences and humanities such as philosophy, sociology, anthropology, psychology, history, and literature. A critical approach examines religious phenomena according to both their positive and negative impacts. It draws on methods including but not restricted to the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, Marxism, post-structuralism, feminism, psychoanalysis, ideological criticism, post-colonialism, ecocriticism, and queer studies. The journal seeks to enhance an understanding of how religious institutions and religious thought may simultaneously serve as a source of domination and progressive social change. It attempts to understand the role of religion within social and political conflicts. These conflicts are often based on differences of race, class, ethnicity, region, gender, and sexual orientation – all of which are shaped by social, political, and economic inequity. The journal encourages submissions of theoretically guided articles on current issues as well as those with historical interest using a wide range of methodologies including qualitative, quantitative, and archival. It publishes articles, review essays, book reviews, thematic issues, symposia, and interviews.
