  Book Description
  Honored by the
Glory of Islam is an important new source on the study of conversion. Much of this most informative book deals with the
dual role of conversion and conquest in defining the controversial reign of Sultan Mehmed IV. Baer's innovative reading
of Ottoman chronicles and his focus on the nuances of conversion within one own's religion makes this text an invaluable
presentation of an exciting new area of research. -Ethel Wolper, Associate Professor of History, University of New
Hampshire "Marc Baer offers an innovative interpretation of religious conversion, especially conversion to Islam in the
Ottoman age. Lacking enough evidence to speculate on the motives of the converts, he instead focuses on the agency of
those who initiated the conversion process - in this case no less than the sultan himself. Baer focuses on the career of
Sultan Mehmed IV (r. 1648-87), and on the people who came into direct contact with his court. In this way he sheds
important new light on a critical period in the Ottoman Empire's long history. Baer also convincingly revises the
character of Mehmed IV as an inept ruler whose incompetence led to the catastrophic siege of Vienna in 1683. This
original study will be of great interest not only to Ottoman specialists, but to students of Islam and of religious
conversion" -R.M. Eaton, Professor of History, University of Arizona Winner of the Albert Hourani Book Award of the
Middle East Studies Association of North America for the best book in Middle East Studies (2008) and short-listed for
the Best First Book in the History of Religions by the American Academy of Religion (2009).
