Just as lively, however, was translation \u003ci\u003eamongst \u003c\/i\u003eOttoman languages, and between those and the languages of their neighbours to the east. This proliferation and circulation of texts in translation and adaptation, through a range of strategies, leads us to ask: What \u003ci\u003eis \u003c\/i\u003ean 'Ottoman language'?\u003cbr\u003eThis volume challenges earlier scholarship that has highlighted translation and adaptation from European languages to the neglect of alternative translations, re-centring translation as an Ottoman 'hub'.
