This volume fluctuates between conceptualizations of movement;
either movements that buildings in the medieval Mediterranean
facilitated, or the movements of the users and audiences of
architecture. From medieval Anatolia to Southern France and the
Genoese colony of Pera across Constantinople, The Fluctuating Sea
investigates how the relationship between movement and the
experiences of a multiplicity of users with different social
backgrounds can provide a new perspective on architectural history.
The book acknowledges the shared characteristics of medieval
Mediterranean architecture, but it also argues that for the
majority of people inhabiting the fragmented microecologies of the
Mediterranean, architecture was a highly localized phenomenon. It
is the connectivity of such localized experiences that The
Fluctuating Sea uncovers. The Fluctuating Sea is a valuable source
for students and scholars of the medieval Mediterranean and
architectural history.
