Frank gives an update on the progress of Episode 17 and introduces Angela, the creator/host 'Women of the Ottoman Empire.' Don’t worry, the main narrative of Empires Podcast the Ottomans will continue, these EXTRAS are meant to deepen our understanding in certain areas.
Angela explores the Turkish Harem through the lens of renowned artist Jean-Auguste Dominique’s ‘The Turkish Bath’ and turns the colors and images inward upon themselves to reveal the deep-seated misconceptions of Ottoman society by the West. Angela then takes the listener through a brief historical survey of the Ottoman Empire, from its rise and fall, with a critical focus upon the Harem.
Along the way four critical phases in the development of the Harem are explored as the institution’s fortunes rise and fall with that of the Empire. The four phases will be the foundation of future podcast episodes and act as a guide for the listener.

Sultan Mehmed I “The Restorer” & Post Interregnum Headache: Episode 14 Show Synopsis: It is the year 1413 and Prince Mehmed has defeated his three brothers in battle and claimed the Ottoman throne for himself. In certain circles the hope of peace and stability for the Empire grows as the dark days of the Civil War recedes. In other quarters Mehmed’s ascension is greeted with hate, fear, and foreboding as the Christian leaders of Wallachia, Byzantine, and Venice array themselves to take advantage of Ottoman weakness.
Across the straits Anatolia is awash in poverty, banditry, and rebellion where all hope has sank in the pits of despair of the past 11 years. The far off Karamanids break off again and the terrible specter of an invasion from the successor state to Timur’s Empire looms large. Amidst the chaos a religious leader arises, Sheikh Bedreddin, who’s movement will change the face of Ottoman policy for the next century. A strategic overview of these challenges are detailed by Frank as the stage is set for Mehmed I to set off and claim his place in history as “The Restorer” of the Ottoman Empire.
