Domenico was the name taken by a rabbi and doctor from Safed in
Palestine on his conversion to Catholicism in 1593. For some ten
years, he served as Third Physician to Sultan Murad III. In 1611 he
wrote, or more accurately he dictated, his Relatione della gran
Citta di Constantinopli. This is not just a topographical
description of the city, but also an account of its inhabitants and
the regulations governing their lives, of how the Sultan spent his
time, of the principles and practice of Islam, and much more.
