Özet

During the 19th century, the Ottoman Empire fell behind European countries and struggled to establish close relationships with them. This situation led to prejudice against the Ottoman Empire in Europe. Despite this, the Tanzimat period presented the Ottoman Empire as a land of opportunities to many Europeans. One of a number of European travelers who visited the Ottoman Empire in this period was Sir James William Redhouse. Taking advantage of the Ottoman Empire's need for skilled personnel, Redhouse quickly attained significant positions in the administration. Although best known for his dictionaries, Redhouse produced numerous translations of Eastern literature. Often labelled as an Orientalist, Redhouse made significant strides in promoting the Ottoman Empire and the East across Europe, particularly in England.
