Welche Bilder und Wahrnehmungen über die Engländer übermittelt ein Osmane in seiner Reisebeschreibung seiner Leserschaft? Und welche Rückschlüsse lässt er dabei auf seine eigene Kultur zu? Der anonyme Reisende besuchte 1851 England und hielt in dem »Seyāḥatnāme-i Londra« (London-Reisebericht) seine Beobachtungen und Eindrücke fest. Damit hinterließ er einen wertvollen Schatz an Informationen, den die Autorin sowohl auf sprachlicher als auch auf inhaltlicher Ebene untersucht.
