Where to find text of Capitulations agreements?

Question

6 answers

26 Jan 2022

Dear colleagues,

I was trying to find texts of some of the capitulations treaties of the Ottoman Empire with European powers, as I am preparing study material. However, I was able to find only doctrinal sources (articles) quoting them, but no full text or parts of their texts.

Can anyone help me where to find their texts, ideally online in english. It can be any typical capitulations agreement like with England, France, Venice, Russia or any other. Just to give some examples in the study book to prove the point what they were about.

Thank you in advance!

Well, I too hope it won't take a couple of years. Until that time comes, I will change my interests in that topic. I hope that our constant inquiry in this situation and public interest will speed up the process.

Answer

Erika,

there is an even higher resolution coloring of the 1576 embassy on the Russian Wikipedia page. The caption lists the main people in the embassy and identifies them by their clothing, starting with (I'm following the original spelling) "Der Obriste abgesandte Knesch oder Fürst: Zachary Iwanwitsch Sugursky, hof Juncker und Stadthalter zum Weissen Sehe..." Hope this helps.
