Israel’s drone strike on Gaza Flotilla: MEMO in conversation with Ann Wright

Forgotten Experts: Astrologers, Science, and Authority in the Ottoman Empire 1450-1600
Astrology is seen today as something fun that some people are interested in, it is often seen as the opposite of science and not taken very seriously by governing authorities. This has not always been the case. In the Ottoman Empire astrology was part of statecraft with the royal court of the sultan having an official position for an astrologer. A. Tunc Sen’s new book Forgotten Experts: Astrologers, Science, and Authority in the Ottoman Empire 1450-1600, explores the world and impact of the Ottoman court astrologers in the 15th and 16th centuries. Called munajjims, the astrologers were at the heart of political and scientific debates and endeavours of their day. The importance of munajjims grew after Mehmed II’s conquest of […]
