Abstract

Paul Rycaut (1628–1700) is one of the most important of early modern English writers about the Ottoman

Empire. His book, The Present State of the Ottoman Empire, appeared in 1667 and was constantly reprinted,

sometimes more than once in the same year. It was also expanded as Rycaut added new information. By

the time Rycaut died, the book had been translated into various European languages and had grown to

twice its original length.
