Description
The present thesis discusses Sh¯ah Q¯asim’s (d. 1539-1540) Kanz al-jav¯ahir al-san¯ıya fi’l-futuh. ¯at al-Sulaym¯an¯ıya (Treasure of the Brilliant Jewels among the Conquests of Süleyman), a chronicle in Persian commissioned by Süleyman I (r. 1520-1566). It claims that Sh¯ah Q¯asim produced this chronicle to legitimize Ottoman rule in the eyes of the Persian-speaking élite in the Iranian world. It contextualizes Sh¯ah Q¯asim’s depiction of Süleyman as the ideal ruler and demonstrates how his chronicle functioned as a propaganda tool.
