The birth of the Ottoman coffeehouse can be traced all the way back to the early 16th century whereby coffee was brought to Istanbul by a handful of traders. Since then, coffeehouses developed into something larger than a mere source of recreation. Instead, they aimed to provide avenues for political debate and the expression of art. People from all walks of life congregated at these coffeehouses, which further developed their presence as a modern-day public sphere. As such, this paper explicates the development of the Ottoman coffeehouse with regards to their socio-cultural and political function with an added focus on the perspective of European travellers who frequented these establishments.Bu araştırma makalesi, Osmanlı kahvehanesinin geç Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'ndaki gelişimini, o dönemde oynadığı sosyo-politik rol ile bağlantılı olarak tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır. Osmanlı kahvehanesinin doğuşu, kahvenin bir avuç tüccar tarafından İstanbul'a getirildiği 16. yüzyılın başlarına kadar izlenebilir. O zamandan beri kahvehaneler, sadece bir eğlence kaynağı olmaktan çok daha fazlasını geliştirdi. Bunun yerine, siyasi tartışma ve sanatın ifadesi için yollar sağlamayı amaçladılar. Hayatın her kesiminden insanlar bu kahvehanelerde bir araya geldi ve bu kahvehanelerde modern bir kamusal alan olarak varlıklarını daha da geliştirdiler. Bu nedenle bu makale, Osmanlı kahvehanesinin sosyo-kültürel ve siyasi işlevi açısından gelişimini, bu kuruluşları ziyaret eden Avrupalı gezginlerin merceğinden irdelemektedir.19 pagesEnglishCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlikehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/CoffeehousesOttomanEuropeanModernTraditionalWesternizationSocialEntertainmentTravelersCulturalJanissariesPoliticalDissentNewsCirculationStudent ProjectSPB3752
