About this listen
In this episode, I sit down with Doğa Öztürk, historian of the Ottoman Empire and author of the Substack newsletter A Few Thoughts On.
Doğa earned his PhD in History from Ohio State University, where his research explored nationalism and imperial belonging in late Ottoman Egypt - a fascinating period of transformation, identity negotiation, and political change. He currently works as an independent research consultant in London.
We discuss:
- His PhD experience and his journey after it ended
- How Ottoman imperial identity evolved during the empire and its final decades
- Why studying the Ottoman past matters for understanding modern Middle Eastern history
- and so much more!
Tune in for an engaging conversation that connects doing a PhD, history, identity, and the legacies of empire!
The books that Doğa mentions in this episode are:
- Cemal Kafadar, Between Two Worlds: The Construction of the Ottoman State
- Colin Imber, The Ottoman Empire, 1300-1650
- Carter Findley, Turkey, Islam, Nationalism, and Modernity: A History.
- Franz Babinger, Mehmed the Conqueror and His Time.
