Istanbul has long been a place where stories and histories collide, where perception is as potent as fact.
From the Koran to Shakespeare, this city with three names--Byzantium, Constantinople, Istanbul--resonates as an idea and a place, real and imagined. Standing as the gateway between East and West, North and South, it has been the capital city of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. For much of its history it was the very center of the world, known simply as "The City," but, as Bettany Hughes reveals, Istanbul is not just a city, but a global story.
In this epic new biography, Hughes takes us on a dazzling historical journey from the Neolithic to the present, through the many incarnations of one of the world's greatest cities--exploring the ways that Istanbul's influence has spun out to shape the wider world. Hughes investigates what it takes to make a city and tells the story not just of emperors, viziers, caliphs, and sultans, but of the poor and the voiceless, of the women and men whose aspirations and dreams have continuously reinvented Istanbul.
Written with energy and animation, award-winning historian Bettany Hughes deftly guides readers through Istanbul's rich layers of history. Based on meticulous research and new archaeological evidence, this captivating portrait of the momentous life of Istanbul is visceral, immediate, and authoritative--narrative history at its finest.
Bettany Hughes is an award-winning historian, author, and broadcaster. Her previous books, Helen of Troy and The Hemlock Cup, were published to great critical acclaim and worldwide success. Hughes has made a number of factual films and documentaries for the BBC, PBS, National Geographic, Discovery, The History Channel, and ABC. She is a Research Fellow of King's College London and has been honored with numerous awards including the Norton Medlicott Medal for History.

评分这几个月读过最厚的书。惭愧地说是一周“啃完”式的阅读体验,体量和内容深度对于门外汉都有点疲惫。但so great to get well informed。Istanbul已加入旅行清单。

三城记,指的是希腊人的拜占庭、罗马基督教的君士坦丁堡、以及奥斯曼土耳其伊斯兰教的伊斯坦布尔。无论对她的称呼是什么,立在两大洲的交界处的位置注定了她必定是受到全世界瞩目的一个城市,是极其重要的东西方政治经济文化宗教交汇点。 有人称她为世界的中心,并不过分。 在...
评分所有城市都免不了盛衰兴替,在时光中倾颓湮没,唯有君士坦丁堡堪称不朽,只要有人类生存,无论继承或重建,这座城市都将延续下去。 皮埃尔·吉勒(Pierre Gilles),1550 年 1939 年 2 月 4 日,BBC播放了叶芝(W. B. Yeats)诗作《航向拜占庭》 (“Sailing to Byzantium”)的朗诵...
评分如果让作家为城市代言,伊斯坦布尔最广为人知的代言人或是帕慕克。寻访帕慕克的伊斯坦布尔,不止于旅游手册里的海景、教堂、清真寺,还能欣赏细密画、啜饮小贩的钵扎、参观纯真博物馆。因细节而爱上一座城,会不会仍然失之主观呢? 在贝塔尼·休斯的《伊斯坦布尔三城记》卷首,...
