The Afterlife of Ottoman Europe explores how Bosnian Muslims navigated the Ottoman and Habsburg domains after the Habsburg occupation of Bosnia Herzegovina, highlighting the enduring influence of the Ottoman Empire and the efforts of its former subjects to shape their new geopolitical reality. It draws on Ottoman and Eastern European historiographies to reframe the study of Habsburg Bosnia Herzegovina within broader intellectual and political trends at the turn of the twentieth century, tracing transregional connections, imperial continuities, and multilayered allegiances.

The Afterlife of Ottoman Europe explores the experiences of Bosnian Muslims in the Ottoman and Habsburg domains following the Habsburg occupation of Bosnia Herzegovina after the 1878 Berlin Congress. Prominent members of the Ottoman imperial polity, Bosnian Muslims became minority subjects of Austria-Hungary, developing a relationship with the new authorities in Vienna while transforming their interactions with Istanbul and the rest of the Muslim world. Leyla Amzi-Erdoğdular explores the enduring influence of the Ottoman Empire during this period, perpetuated by the efforts of the imperial state from afar and by its former subjects in Bosnia Herzegovina negotiating their new geopolitical reality. Muslims' endeavors to maintain their prominence and shape their organizations and institutions influenced imperial considerations and policies on occupation, sovereignty, minorities, and migration. This book introduces Ottoman archival sources and draws on Ottoman and Eastern European historiographies to reframe the study of Habsburg Bosnia Herzegovina within broader intellectual and political trends at the turn of the twentieth century. Tracing transregional connections, imperial continuities, and multilayered allegiances, The Afterlife of Ottoman Europe bridges Ottoman, Islamic, Middle Eastern, and Balkan studies. Amzi-Erdoğdular tells the story of Muslims who redefined their place and influence in both empires and the modern world and argues for the inclusion of Islamic intellectual history within the history of Bosnia Herzegovina and Eastern Europe.
