The Other Siege of Vienna and the Ottoman Threat: An Essay in Counter-Factual History

Richard W. Bulliet

Abstrak

By proposing a counter-factual history in which the Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1529 succeeded, this essay attempts to illuminate both the parameters of Ottoman power at that time and the complexity of European politics at the dawn of the Protestant Reformation. As with many attempts at counter-factual history, this exercise seeks to offer a warning against teleological approaches to history in which major events and their outcomes are described as being inevitable.
