This article investigates the close relationship between geographical and marine mapping and networks of knowledge exchanges in the seventeenth century Ottoman Empire. Geographical mapping in this period shaped how mapmakers, intellectuals, and ruling elites conceived space, territory, and political power. Although this development impacted the Ottoman world, the Ottoman map makers and their works have not yet fully been integrated into these discussions. This article will offer a historical analysis of select maps and geographical works from the seventeenth century. In doing so, it will delineate the changing patterns of production, consumption, and circulation process of these maps. Resulting analysis will also shed tentative lights into the global intellectual and professional networks in which Ottoman map makers were operating.
