Odalisque
An odalisque ((トルコ語:Odalık)) was a concubine in a Turkish harem, particularly the concubines in the household of the Ottoman sultan.
==Etymology==
The word "odalisque" is French in form and originates from the Turkish ''odalık'', meaning "chambermaid", from ''oda'', "chamber" or "room". It can also be transliterated ''odahlic'', ''odalisk'', and ''odaliq''.
Joan DelPlato has described the term's shift in meaning from Turkish to English and French:
The English and French term odalisque (rarely odalique) derives from the Turkish 'oda', meaning "chamber"; thus an odalisque originally meant a chamber girl or attendant. In western usage, the term has come to refer specifically to the harem concubine. By the eighteenth century the term odalisque referred to the eroticized artistic genre in which a nominally eastern woman lies on her side on display for the spectator.
