About this ebook:
This book focuses on the concept of marginality and space in Ottoman Istanbul from 1789 to 1839. In the late Ottoman capital, marginality designates the state of being on the precise border between the legitimate and the illicit. For a social group, practice, or space, marginality means neither being entirely embraced, nor being entirely dismissible. Bachelors represented a group that constituted a significant majority of the workforce the city needs and were simultaneously categorized as individuals lacking family supervision and thus were perceived as a threat to the neighborhood-oriented style of living. The tavern was a similar kind of space, for alcohol consumption was, for long years, a practice regarded common to non-Muslims, ar, at least, officially articulated as such. Yet, a portion of the Muslim population consumed alcohol in almost every period of the Empire.
