This multi-disciplinary volume is the first collective effort to
explore Istanbul, capital of the vast polyglot, multiethnic, and
multireligious Ottoman empire and home to one of the world's
largest and most diverse urban populations, as an early modern
metropolis. It assembles topics seldom treated together and
embraces novel subjects and fresh approaches to older debates.
Contributors crisscross the socioeconomic, political, cultural,
environmental, and spatial, to examine the myriad human and
non-human actors, local and global, that shaped the city into one
of the key sites of early modern urbanity. Contributors are: Oscar
