| Summary | "Zágoni Mikes Kelemen törökországi levelei (2. kötet)" by Kelemen Mikes is a collection of letters written in the early 18th century. The book provides a firsthand account of life during the Ottoman Empire, focusing on the experiences and observations of Mikes as he reflects on the social, political, and cultural landscape of the time. Through his correspondence, Mikes reveals both personal anecdotes and broader insights into the era, making it a valuable historical document. At the start of the book, Mikes writes to his dear aunt, sharing his thoughts on friendships and the dynamics of relationships within a humorous and relatable tone. He discusses various elements of life in Rodostó, including local events and the peculiar customs of the Greek Orthodox clergy. Mikes goes on to detail a recent rebellion in Constantinople, highlighting the political unrest and the swift changes in power among the ruling elite, followed by a whimsical reflection on the human condition and societal issues, such as greed and the nature of friendship. This opening establishes both Mikes's keen observational skills and his witty literary style, setting the stage for further explorations of life in the Ottoman Empire.
