Note 538 — Chapter VI · THE RULING INSTITUTION: AS GOVERNMENT

Reading edition

Hammer, Staatsverfassung: 101-143, the Kanun-nameh Misr; 143-162, police and market laws of Suleiman; 187-211, Kanuni Rayah; 337-434, Kanuni Timar. Hammer does not make it clear where he found particular Kanuns, or how completely he has presented the originals; nor has he attempted to distinguish Kanuns of Suleiman from those of earlier and later sultans. The Kanuni Rayah was not made into a formal Kanun-nameh till 1614 (ibid. 211). See Heidborn, 91-92.
