Summary: This podcast is reblogged from our friends at Ottoman History Podcast (Ep. #146, 19 February 2014) Poland is not always remembered among the great imperial rivals of the Ottoman Empire such as Safavid Iran, the Habsburgs, and Muscovy within discussions of early modern European history. Yet, the longstanding and continuous interactions between the Polish and Ottoman worlds comprise an important component of the story of the European state system and its transformation. In this podcast, Michael Polczynski and Paulina Dominik offer an introduction to Ottoman-Polish relations and tell the stories of the first and last Polish embassies to the Ottoman Empire.
