“Everyday Life in Istanbul”

Everyday life in istanbul is a collection of striking images along a journey back to the roots of the turk’s social identity. A work embracing the history of an imperial city in a plane where man, culture and space relate to eachother, it is a noteworthy example of the new historiography, which sets up a balance among the social sciences. With its unique style and its theoretical framework set against a multidimensional background extending politics to culture, architecture to literature, it is at the same time a contemporary historian’s gift to our city.
