Summary:

"The Uses of Oppression follows the development of the Ottoman Greek press from its birth in 1830 until 1862, employing the reflections of its editors, correspondents, advertisers, commentators, and readers as a lens through which to view the everyday lives of a generation of Ottoman Greeks-their social aspirations, their reactions to political events, their reception of Western-style norms, and other contemporary issues"-- Provided by publisher.
