Using never before studied documents from Manuscript Turc 130 (BnF, Paris) , compiled in a unique structure by Ambassador François Savary de Brèves, Viorel Panaite offers a comprehensive picture of the Ottoman Mediterranean around 1600, with the French as protagonists. He explores the foreigner's condition (müstemin) in the Abode of Islam, consular jurisdiction, the Flemish as protégés , and takes the reader on a journey to the cities of Marseille, Tunis, Alexandria, Aleppo and Istanbul. He focuses on the capitulations' provisions about merchants, navigation, trade, goods and taxes, as well as diplomatic efforts to curb the illegal actions of provincial authorities, ship captains, North African pirates and English privateers.

The Church of England and the Second World War : Ethical Traditions in Anglican Public Theology /
:
In The Church of England and the Second World War , John D. Alexander analyses how historic Christian ethical traditions influenced the Church of England's contributions to British pre-war and wartime public policy debates. These traditions include just war, holy war, pacifism, and Christian realism as deployed by such diverse Anglican figures as Cosmo Gordon Lang, William Temple, Herbert Hensley Henson, George Bell, Cyril Forster Garbett, Charles Raven, Percy Hartill, Evelyn Underhill, Vera Brittain, and James Parkes. Additional themes include war as divine judgement, humanitarian intervention, and Church of England responses to the Holocaust. As a case study in the application of Christian ethical traditions, this book makes vital connections between Anglican studies, international relations theory, and the diplomatic, military, and humanitarian challenges of the mid-twentieth century.
