Description: This seminar examines processes of change in the dynamics of urban life in cities of the former Ottoman empire including Instanbul, Cairo, Salonica, Damascus and Aleppo between the 18th and 19th centuries. Weekly discussions will be based on readings of primary and secondary sources that explore issues of public behavior, sociability, delinquency, poverty, prostitution, immigration, marginality, and forms and discourses of governance and social control such as morality, public security and social order. Additional course work required for graduate students. In addition to all the requirements of the class, Graduate Students will be required to write a 20pp research paper. This requirement will consist of three parts: an annotated bibliography to hand in after the mid-semester break; a class presentation in the last two weeks of the term; submission of their paper at the end of the term.
