Note 432 — Chapter V · THE RULING INSTITUTION: AS A NOBILITY AND A COURT
Reading edition
Extended descriptions of the household are found in D’Ohsson, vii and Hammer’s Staatsverwaltung. Lane-Poole, in his Story of Turkey, ch. xiv, gives a good, clear summary of D’Ohsson. References to these authorities are here omitted except in a few instances of special interest.
