Beschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nurbanu Sultan or Sultana Nur-Banu, née Raquel Nasi (ca. 1525 7 December 1583) was a Sephardic Jewish-born woman of noble birth, the first cousin of Joseph Nasi. Her aunt was Dona Gracia Mendez. She was the mother of Sultan Murad III of the Ottoman Empire and the de facto co-regent as the Valide Sultan from 1574-1583. Raquel was the natural daughter of Nicolò Nasi, by Violanta Baffo. She was captured when the Turks conquered the Aegean (Egean) island of Paros, where she was born, during the 1537 war, abducted from there and taken to the royal harem of Prince Selim in Istanbul, where she was renamed Sultana Nur-Banu, "Princess of Light". She became the most favored wife of Sultan Selim II, who was put on the throne in 1566, and the mother of Sultan Murad III. When Selim II died in 1574, she concealed his death and hid his corpse in an icebox until her son Murad arrived from Manisa, where he was governor, twelve days later and became the sultan.
