Title of this Atlas:  Cedid Atlas Tercümesi "The New Great Atlas" 1803 This is an extremely rare atlas and has some very intersting maps. The New Great Atlas [Cedid atlas tercümesi] was the first Islamic world atlas to be based in the European style. Printed in Istanbul in the year 1803 by the Ottoman Military Engineering School [Tab'hane-yi Hümayun] and was bound with Mahmud Raif Efendi’s geographic study on the maps entitled Ucaletü'l-cografiyye. The maps themselves were based on William Faden’s [1749-1836] plates for his General atlas, first printed in London, 1797. Mahmud Raif Efendi composed his eighty page commentary in French while the private secretary to the Ottomon ambassador in London. The commentary was then translated into Turkish. The atlas was part of Sultan Selim III’s "Nizam-i cedid" [or New order], which was an attempt to incorporate European knowledge and administration in to the Ottoman system. The place names on the maps are transliterated into the Arabic script and all of the Christian symbols have been erased. Only fifty copies of the New Great Atlas were printed of which very few remain.
