Most of the Ottoman Sultans had great interest to the cultural and artistic values. In time, these values were interested by the westerners. The Ottoman land always attracted travelers. Although there were no proper roads, public transportation and guidance facilities in 17th centuries, foreigners traveled with their own wish individually for several reasons. They were officials, scientists, clergymen and archaeologists visited the Ottoman Empire, especially İstanbul and Asia Minor (Anatolia) for political, religion and other reasons.

Târih-i Nişâncı Paşa was comprised of an introduction, four chapters and an epilogue. The first chapter is the history of the prophets starting from the Prophet Adam until the Prophet Muhammad. The pieces of information in this chapter, which discusses the history of the prophets, are in the form of anecdotes. These anecdotes were written after being compiled from the most reliable narratives. The second chapter is comprised of pieces of information concerning the Prophet Muhammad, Rashidun Khalifas, and the emperors of the Umayyads, Abbasids, Fatimid Empire, Ayyubids, and Mamelukes. This chapter was designed in a way to include the genealogical information of the emperors such as date of birth, death, and the duration of their reigns. Moreover, even with simple sentences, the most notable personalities of each period, their works, and important aspects were touched on. The third chapter is comprised of the political events starting from the foundation of the Ottoman State until the murder of Bayezid, the son of Suleiman the Magnificent. The fourth chapter mentions about Pisdadi, Keyani, Eskani, Sassanids, Greeks, and Romans, which are named as other states.

A few texts were composed by Muslim travelers who left important accounts of Mughal political, economic and social life. This article will examine two of those chronicles. The first, composed by Ottoman Admiral Seydi Ali Reis, Mir’âtü’l-Memâlik (The Mirror of Countries) describes the life of the Mughal court in mid-sixteenth century. The second, written by Mutribi al-Asamm alSamarqandi (also known as Mutribi Samarqandi), a subject of the Ashtarhanid Dynasty of Bukhara, describes the court of Jahangir in the early seventeenth century. Although both Seydi Ali Reis and Mutribi Samarqandi shared a similar background being elite Turkish-speakers with high levels of education who identified as Sunni Muslim they had strikingly different experiences. This article shows that a comparison of these two chronicles hints at how court rituals, manners, and administrative policy in Mughal India changed during over seventy years. However, in order to understand the transformation of the Mughal court, we must also look into the lives of the narrators: what brought them to the Mughal Empire, what effect they had at the court, and what ideas they carried back with them to their home countries.","PeriodicalId":202874,"journal":{"name":"Osmanli Mirasi Arastirmalari Dergisi","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127831211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this system, non-Muslim citizens were not given equality in state official systems. However, in the Tanzimat period the Empire tried to achieve this equality for various reasons. Equality provisions are included in the constitution, constitutional documents and various laws. The legal regulations of the Ottoman Empire aiming to provide equality in access to the state official employment are not examined. The contents of these legal regulations have not been adequately evaluated in terms of access to the state official employment. The principles and conditions of employment have not been compared with today's regulations. The studies are mostly concentrated in the field of application and the theoretical part of the subject is omitted. This study sets out the basic legal arrangements aimed at equalizing the employment requirements for the state officials. These regulations appear to be sufficient in terms of the principles and conditions of employment of state officials. It is understood that the Ottoman Empire established the system of employment into the modern state official position with these regulations.","PeriodicalId":202874,"journal":{"name":"Osmanli Mirasi Arastirmalari Dergisi","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128219593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
