In Ottoman script. 2 volumes set in one: ([15], 327 p.; [6], 315 p.). Vasif tarihi. Mahasin ül-âsâr ve hakayik ül-ahbâr. 2 volumes set. Özege 22519. Extremely rare. First Edition. In the late eighteenth century the Ottoman Empire experienced a time of profound crisis, political as well as intellectual, moral, and ideological. This dissertation explores the mental and moral climate of the period through the work of Ahmed Vasif Efendi, a statesman, ambassador, intellectual, and author of one of the century's largest histories, and also through his personal development as a reformer. Divided into five chapters, each treating a distinct aspect of Vasif's thought, this dissertation argues that Ottoman elites after 1774 responded to growing foreign and domestic challenges with not only military reform but a broad re-evaluation of subjects like war, peacemaking, moral rule, and human agency in history. It suggests these debates, including a basic disagreement over the legitimate place of human reason and action across life's many spheres, indicate a vital if fractured response to the crisis, and an incipient breakdown in certain storied intellectual frameworks.…

First edition of this famous Ottoman chronicle of the second half of the 18th century by the period's most celebrated historian, detailing the sweeping changes and military conflicts which affected Ottoman society on the cusp of modernity. Ahmed Vasif Efendi (c.1730-1804) was born in Baghdad, where he learned Arabic, Persian, and Turkish. He began a bureaucratic career and soon progressed to the Ottoman imperial court. Early on in his working life, he followed Ottoman forces to the front line in their battles with the Russians and was captured and taken to St Petersburg for a time. There, he witnessed Russia's military expansion first hand. Returning to Turkey, he was appointed chief scribe of the Ottoman bureaucracy in 1805. He was a major supporter of social reform. In Mehasinü'l-asar ve hakaikü'l-ahbar he proposed a new kind of historiography, centred on human choices rather than on divine will. Much of the narrative takes place against the backdrop of the Russo-Turkish wars, which led to the Russian annexation of Crimea in 1783, but the work is in fact universal in its scope, covering Ottoman foreign relations, power struggles at the court, and intellectual achievements inside the empire.

2 volumes bound as 1. An important first-hand account of relations between the Porte and central Europe as well as the wider political events during the second half of the 18th century. Written in Turkish (set in a Naskh Arabic type) by the Baghdad-born diplomat Ahmed Vasif Effendi and also known as "Vasif Tarihi" ("Vasif's History"), it forms one of the most important works of Ottoman political history for the period between 1754 and 1774, when the author actively participated in the world of diplomacy in the Ottoman Empire, on the Balkans, in Russia and in Vienna. Vasif was known for his quick temper and was later described by the German orientalist Franz Babinger as "vain, stingy, jealous, and excessively vicious" (cf. p. 336). His text was left unfinished after a dispute with the Istanbul-based press of Rasid Efendi, which Vasif himself had helped establish, and it was completed by Sadullah Enveri (d. 1794), who himself had participated in the military events described. He is remembered for establishing modern Egypt as an independent country.With the label of the 19th-century bookseller Benjamin Duprat, Paris, on the front paste-down.

This is the third and last edition, the second printed at Bulaq, by the first official and governmental printing press in Egypt, after first being published in Istanbul in 1219 (1803/04). - Bulaqor Al-Amiriya Press, the first official and governmental printing press established in Egypt, was founded in 1820 by the viceroy of Egypt, Muhammad Ali. As early as in 1815 the first delegation was sent from Egypt to Milan to learn printing. After the building for the press was finished in the autumn of 1820, it took another two years to transport the machines and train the employees, and the first book, an Arabic-Italian dictionary, was published in 1822. Viceroy Muhammad Ali started several reform programmes with a view to create a modern Egyptian society after the European model, and the press was part of this modernisation. He is remembered for establishing modern Egypt as an independent country. - Printed on thick paper. Interior clean with sporadic old staining; old pencil and ink annotations to endpapers.

Set of two volumes bound together. Worldcat locates no paper copies.  An important text, covering history of the Ottoman Empire by Ahmed Vâsıf Efendi (1740-1806). He was born in Baghdad, where he received his early education and, at a young age, developed a particular expertise in bibliography. In his formative years, he was employed in private libraries in Baghdad and supported himself in part through the copying of manuscripts. After leaving Baghdad, he traveled first to Van and subsequently to Aleppo. In Aleppo he entered the service of the city's governor, Gül Ahmedpaşazâde Ali Pasha, acting as his librarian. He was later appointed secretary to Abaza Mehmed Pasha, the commander-in-chief on the Hotin front. In this role, he was an eyewitness to the Ottoman-Russian War of 1768-1774 and to the conflict over Crimea. During the Russian capture of Yenikale in 1185/1771, he was taken prisoner and transported to St. Petersburg. At that time the Russian court was unsettled by the Pugachev rebellion, which threatened to develop into a large-scale uprising. He was ultimately released in order to convey a letter from Empress Catherine II, proposing an armistice, to the Ottoman headquarters. With the conclusion of a ceasefire between the two empires at Yergöğü on 29 May 1772, his nine-month captivity came to an end. In November 1772, following the appointment of the Chief Scribe Abdürrezzak Bahir Efendi as chief plenipotentiary to resume peace negotiations in Bucharest, Vâsıf joined the delegation in the capacity of secretary. These negotiations, which extended over approximately six months, likewise failed to produce an agreement, owing largely to Russia's ambitions with regard to Crimea. In subsequent years, Vâsıf served on several fronts and was an eyewitness to the Ottoman defeat at Kozluca in 1774. At the time when the text of the Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca was being prepared for signature in Istanbul, Vâsıf was once again dispatched—this time to Field Marshal Rumyantsov in Iași—to communicate the concerns of the Crimean population to the Russian side, particularly regarding the clause proclaiming the independence of Crimea, which was feared to pave the way for a future Russian occupation. This mission, however, proved unsuccessful, and he returned without securing any tangible concessions. In 1784 he has managed to revive the book publishing in Istanbul: the printing press of Ibrahim Mutaferrika, that was not used since his death in 1747, was bought by Efendi, he has secured the permission of Grand Vizier Halil Hamîd Pasha and Sultan Abdülhamid I to produce books and in 1784 Târîh-i Sâmi, Şâkir ve Subhî was printed. In the same year he was appointed the official chronicler of the Empire, and started to work on this book, the official history from 1752 to 1774 of the events in many of which he took part personally. The events of Muharram 1166 (November 1752) - Dhu al-Hijjah 1183 (April 1770) constitute the first volume, and the part up to Rajab 1188 (September 1774) constitutes the second volume. The later periods are also were documented by Efendi, but were not prepared for the publication at the time and remain in Turkish archives. In these volumes, he sought to embellish his subject matter with invocations, Qurʾanic citations, and, at times, rhymed passages, reinforcing the narrative through the deliberate use of appropriate poetic expression. His sections devoted to obituaries and biographical notices are particularly noteworthy, marked by an unapologetic readiness to commend those he admired and to censure those he regarded unfavorably. This approach found its most enthusiastic reception in Sultan Selim. …
