An international conference will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, in 2014, exploring the Ottoman dimension of the First World War.
The conference, ‘Not All Quiet on the Ottoman Fronts: Neglected Perspectives on a Global War, 1914-18’, has made a call for papers to be submitted by 1st June 2013.
The conference is being jointly organised by the Orient-Institut Istanbul and the History Foundation in Turkey (Tarih Vakf).
“The conference’s goal is to view once more the war experiences of the Ottoman state as reflected in the new currents of military historiography, to compare the results of these new perspectives, as well as to evaluate their possible contribution to future research”.
The conference will be held in Istanbul from 9th-12th April 2014.
