Who practiced it and why? And how should scholars approach the topic today? This series of podcasts introduces new research that challenges the traditional story of science in the Ottoman Empire. Setting aside long-held assumptions of the passive reception of European science or of a golden age stymied by religious obscurantism, these podcasts explore how artisans, scholars, and others made sense of the natural world. Some examine topics and actors traditionally regarded as outside the bounds of science, such as alchemy, while others reveal connections to broader worlds of intellectual exchange. Yet others situate seemingly cerebral sciences like astronomy or medicine in the everyday contexts of religion and charity. Together they reveal a new and vibrant intellectual world that has been too often overlooked.an Ottoman History Podcast seriesOttoman History Podcastadmin@ottomanhistorypodcast.comOttoman History Podcasttag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793063735579568706.post-6234723238487361698Wed, 14 Dec 2022 20:51:00 +00002025-12-25T01:02:27.736+03:0017th centuryEarly ModernHistoryHistory of ScienceJustin StearnsMoroccoOttoman EmpireShireen HamzaSTSseriesSufismtajineTaylor Moore<div class="guest_name_smaller"> <a href="https://nyuad.nyu.edu/en/academics/divisions/arts-and-humanities/faculty/justin-stearns.html" target="_blank"> with Justin Stearns </a></div><div class="host_name"> hosted by Shireen Hamza and Taylor Moore</div> <br> <div class="hidden_synopsis"> | When you think of the history of science, what people and places come to mind?

In this episode, we speak with Jörg Matthias Determann about the many ways science has fueled the imagination of people in Muslim-majority contexts over the last few hundred years. In his latest book, he shows how artists and missionaries participated in &quot;cultures of astrobiology,&quot; or the study of life on other planets. Exploring the ways that a variety of authors, artists, and governments have imagined a future with and for Muslims, Matthias shows that there are many overlapping and competing visions of Muslim Futurism. </div> <a href="https://www.ottomanhistorypodcast.com/2022/02/scifi.html#more">« Click for More »</a>https://www.ottomanhistorypodcast.com/2022/02/scifi.html0Qatar25.354826 51.183884-2.9554078361788463 16.027634 53.665059836178841 86.340134admin@ottomanhistorypodcast.com (Ottoman History Podcast)nowith Jörg Matthias Determann hosted by Shireen Hamza | Islam and science fiction have more history together than you might expect.

In this episode, we discuss the relationship of Southeast Asia to the emergence of a modern Chinese Islam.

Delving especially into the histories of Islamic medicine in China, John illustrates how Chinese Muslim leaders, imams, and historians took to print, radio, and even to sea routes, to articulate new visions of identity in an emerging nation-state and a changing Islamic world. « Click for More »History,Science,Medicine,Ottoman,Empire,Islamtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793063735579568706.post-4483601324745088659Sat, 15 Jul 2017 14:54:00 +00002024-03-25T18:33:20.460+03:00Best of 2017 ListChris GratienElise BurtonGeneticsHistoryIranIsraelMaryam PattonNationalismRaceShireen HamzaSTSseriesTurkey<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="episode_no"> Episode 324</div> <br> <div class="guest_name"> <a href="https://cambridge.academia.edu/EliseBurton" target="_blank">with Elise Burton</a></div> <div class="host_name"> hosted by <a href="https://harvard.academia.edu/ShireenHamza" target="_blank">Shireen Hamza</a>, <a href="http://georgetown.academia.edu/ChrisGratien" target="_blank">Chris Gratien</a>, and <a href="https://harvard.academia.edu/MaryamPatton" target="_blank">Maryam Patton</a></div> <br> <center> <b style="text-align: left;">Download the podcast</b></center> <center> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/soundcloud/OHP" target="blank" title="Click to access RSS feed">Feed</a> | <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ottoman-history-podcast/id513808150" target="blank" title="Click to access series listing in iTunes">iTunes</a> | <a href="https://play.google.com/music/m/Idu7nhligwgytnv77wvecdx3slq?t=Ottoman_History_Podcast" target="_blank">GooglePlay</a> | <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ottoman-history-podcast/genetics-and-nation-building-in-the-middle-east-elise-burton" target="_blank">SoundCloud</a></center> <br> <div class="episode_synopsis"> Genetics have emerged as a new scientific tool for studying human ancestry and historical migration. And as research into the history of genetics demonstrates, genetics and other bioscientific approaches to studying ancestry were also integral to the transformation of the very national and racial categories through which ancestry has come to be described over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries. In this podcast, we speak to Elise Burton about her research on the development of human genetics in the Middle East. Burton has studied the history of genetics within a comparative framework, examining the interrelated cases of human genetics research in Turkey, Israel, Iran, and elsewhere. In this episode, we focus in particular on the history of genetics in Turkey and its relationship to changing understandings of nation and race within the early Republic.

We explore the role of the Ottoman Empire in the creation of the Pasteur Institutes and their global network, and we consider the relationship between medicine and religion, politics, and colonialism in North Africa and the Middle East. « Click for More »History,Science,Medicine,Ottoman,Empire,Islamtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793063735579568706.post-3073999012913700853Wed, 16 Nov 2016 15:27:00 +00002021-01-28T16:52:35.952+03:00Best of 2016 ListChris GratienCompendiaElias MuhannaHistoryMamlukMedievalNora LessersohnSTSseriesSyriaZoe Griffith<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <center> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://brown.academia.edu/EliasMuhanna" target="_blank">with Elias Muhanna</a></b></span><br><br><i>hosted by <a href="https://harvard.academia.edu/ChrisGratien" target="_blank">Chris Gratien</a> and <a href="https://brown.academia.edu/ZoeGriffith" target="_blank">Zoe Griffith</a></i></center> <center> <i><br></i></center> <center> <i><a href="https://harvard.academia.edu/NoraLessersohn" target="_blank">readings by Nora Lessersohn</a></i></center> <center> <i><br></i></center> <center> </center> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <center> <b style="text-align: left;">Download the podcast</b></center> <center> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/soundcloud/OHP" target="blank" title="Click to access RSS feed">Feed</a> | <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ottoman-history-podcast/id513808150" target="blank" title="Click to access series listing in iTunes">iTunes</a> | <a href="https://play.google.com/music/m/Idu7nhligwgytnv77wvecdx3slq?t=Ottoman_History_Podcast" target="_blank">GooglePlay</a> | <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ottoman-history-podcast/elias-muhanna" target="_blank">SoundCloud</a></center> <br> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Classical encyclopedias and compendia such as Pliny’s Natural History have long been known to Western audiences, but the considerably more recent works of medieval Islamic scholars have been comparatively ignored.

In this episode, Kathryn Schwartz discusses why this question is often poorly posed and then delves into an in-depth look at how and why people used print in one particular historical context—nineteenth-century Cairo. Touching upon topics such Napoleon, Mehmed Ali, and the Bulaq press, we explore how print slowly and haphazardly embedded itself into various aspects of Egyptian learned life. This fresh history casts nineteenth-century Egypt in a new light by examining the technological adaptation of print not as an act of unstoppable and transformative modernity, but as a slow and incremental expansion of already existing practices of book production. « Click for More »History,Science,Medicine,Ottoman,Empire,Islamtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793063735579568706.post-2037674198110716073Mon, 11 Jul 2016 11:23:00 +00002020-04-02T00:32:54.221+03:00Best of 2016 ListEducationEgyptGraham PittsHistoryHoda YousefLiteracyNationalismReadingSTSseries<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <center> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://fandm.academia.edu/HodaYousef" target="_blank">with Hoda Yousef</a></b></span><br><br><i><a href="https://georgetown.academia.edu/GrahamPitts" target="_blank">hosted by Graham Pitts</a></i></center> <center> <i><br></i></center> <center> </center> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <center> <b style="text-align: left;">Download the podcast</b></center> <center> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/soundcloud/OHP" target="blank" title="Click to access RSS feed">Feed</a> | <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ottoman-history-podcast/id513808150" target="blank" title="Click to access series listing in iTunes">iTunes</a> | <a href="https://play.google.com/music/m/Idu7nhligwgytnv77wvecdx3slq?t=Ottoman_History_Podcast" target="_blank">GooglePlay</a> | <a href="https://soundcloud.com/ottoman-history-podcast/literacies-and-the-emergence-of-modern-egypt-hoda-yousef" target="_blank">SoundCloud</a></center> <br> <div style="text-align: justify;"> During the late nineteenth century, Egyptian society witnessed the rise of new debates and practices concerning reading and writing in the Arabic language.
