Abstract
  • As Turkey's cultural and economic climate has experienced dramatic shifts in accordance with its changing role in global society, a neo-Ottoman movement has taken root in recent years which can offer insight into the new Turkish identity. This sociopolitical movement captures a diverse set of cultural attributes through a contemporary perspective of the historical Ottoman Period. This thesis will explore the spectrum of Ottoman representations as well as the meanings ascribed to them by Turks. By focusing largely on culinary culture as it is manifested in neo-Ottomanism, I will address socioeconomic and religious distinctions in terms of their participation in and perception of this phenomenon. Situating these concepts in the context of a cultural and ideological transition, I hope to offer some initial conclusions as to neo-Ottomanism's broader implications for Turkey.
