Asst. Prof. Hüseyin Onur Ercan's book titled " Cânibî Ali Pasha. Last Ottoman Ambassador to Habsburg Vienna (1740-1741)" was published.


In 1739, the Ottomans managed to take Belgrade from the Habsburgs, a city they had lost 21 years earlier. After this important victory, peace was agreed between the two empires. The parties appointed their ambassadors to conclude the peace agreed upon as a result of negotiations. This book deals with the adventure of Cânibî Ali Pasha, the last ambassador with the title of ambassador sent to Habsburg Vienna. This study of Cânibî Ali Pasha and his embassy, based on Austrian and Ottoman archival documents, many of which have come to light for the first time, will open a new horizon in the historiography of early modern Ottoman diplomacy.
