In 2025 the Skilliter Centre for Ottomans Studies will be celebrating its 40th anniversary. To commemorate this and in honour of the academic research of Dr Susan Skilliter the Centre will be hosting a conference on The Ottomans and Diplomacy. This conference will be held at the Skilliter Centre for Ottomans Studies, Newnham College, University of Cambridge, from Thursday 10 to Saturday 12 July 2025.
Taking diplomacy in its widest sense including public, cultural, personal, military and economic diplomacy, the conference will explore the Ottoman empire’s relations with the outside world. Topics to be covered will in include, for example, material culture, the construction of diplomatic texts including diplomatic ego documents and diplomatic social interactions.
Preference will be given to papers which are case study focused and demonstrate use of primary source data.
Papers will be 20 minutes in length with ten minutes for discussion. As the aim of the conference is to generate as much discussion as possible and to encourage the construction of new ideas, the number of papers will be limited and there will be no parallel sessions.
Those interested in participating in this conference should submit an abstract (including affiliation and contact details) of between 400 and 500 words to skilliter.centre[at]newn.cam.ac.uk by Monday, 9 December 2024. Participants will be selected and contacted by 17 January 2024.
Speakers’ food and accommodation will be covered by the Skilliter Centre for the duration of the conference, but participants are expected to cover their own travel costs. The language of the conference will be English.
