Book Bountiful Empire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Priscilla Mary Isin
  • Publisher : Reaktion Books
  • Release : 2025-02-12
  • ISBN : 1780239394
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Bountiful Empire written by Priscilla Mary Isin and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2025-02-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This meticulously researched, beautiful volume offers fresh and lively insight into an empire and cuisine that until recent decades has been too narrowly viewed through orientalist spectacles. The Ottoman Empire was one of the largest and longest-lasting empires in history—and one of the most culinarily inclined. In this powerful and complex concoction of politics, culture, and cuisine, the production and consumption of food reflected the lives of the empire’s citizens from sultans to soldiers. Food bound people of different classes and backgrounds together, defining identity and serving symbolic functions in the social, religious, political, and military spheres. In Bountiful Empire, Priscilla Mary Işın examines the changing meanings of the Ottoman Empire’s foodways as they evolved over more than five centuries. Işın begins with the essential ingredients of this fascinating history, examining the earlier culinary traditions in which Ottoman cuisine was rooted, such as those of the Central Asian Turks, Abbasids, Seljuks, and Byzantines. She goes on to explore the diverse aspects of this rich culinary culture, including etiquette, cooks, restaurants, military food, food laws, and food trade. The book draws on everything from archival documents to poetry and features more than one hundred delectable illustrations.

The contributors critically assess food history writing in the United States, Africa, Mexico and the Spanish Diaspora, India, the Ottoman Empire, the Far East - China, Japan and Korea - Europe, Jewish communities and the Middle East. Several historical eras are covered: the Ancient World, the Middle Ages, Early Modern Europe and the Modern day. The book is a unique addition to the growing literature on food history.

This book was released on 2023-04-06 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Istanbul has an unprecedented capacity for creative economy sectors. This high capacity should be expected to bring Istanbul to become a global center city. Its rich cultural heritage, its geostrategic position and its dynamic and innovative young population provide a solid foundation for the development of creative economy in Istanbul. These powerful components of the city also serve as an engine for a inclusive and sustainable development. This book focuses the growing importance of creative economies for Istanbul and shows the development of Türkiye as a country among creative economies. The population in Istanbul, which is among the world’s leading metropoles, has increased rapidly in recent years. In the last decade, the population of the city has doubled and exceeded 15 million. The population growth continues; the city continues to be the main destination and attraction center of internal and external migration. Established in both Europe and Asia, Istanbul connects these two continents. It is equally close to the countries in Europe, Asia, Black Sea, Mediterranean and Middle East. It is in the middle and on the connection point of the air, sea and highways of the East and West. These features make Istanbul a unique city. Istanbul is an important creative economic center for Türkiye and the world, and its role in and importance for creative economies is increasing. A major part of the actors in cinema, television, radio, digital and print publishing, music industry, fashion, architecture, industrial design, gastronomy, contemporary arts and new media are located in Istanbul. The city is the main producer of creative products and is also the main export center. The place and importance of creative 20 • ISTANBUL CREATIVE INDUSTRIES sectors in the economy of Istanbul is indisputable. It i seen that the proceeds of these sectors have grown very rapidly and the share of sector products in the total production of goods and services in Istanbul has increased in the same way. With these features, Istanbul is moving towards becoming one of the leading cities in the world in creative economies. As a metropolitan city of the world, there are two important features that make Istanbul privileged: First, the city was born as a world city and it has been the capital city of numerous empires. For this reason, it has had a multicultural and multi-religious structure since the beginning. Multiculturalism is a powerful source of inspiration that nurtures creativity for Istanbul residents. Another important feature of Istanbul is that it is one of the cities with the youngest population in the world. With their high skills in using the internet and information technologies, the young generation of Istanbul has a strong, creative and innovative potential. Cultural diversity and wealth, coupled with a creative, innovative and dynamic young population, is a driving force that accelerates social and economic development. This book sprang from a data-collective effort which intended to provide on inventory of the creative and innovative capacities of Istanbul in a comprehensive and detailed manner. In the case of Istanbul, urban conditions and dynamics are approached to ensure the sustainability of creativity and innovation, and of course the role of creative economies, entrepreneurship related to creative economies as well as culture in the shaping of the creative cities of the future are analysed. On the other hand, Istanbul has been included in the “Design Cities” network by UNESCO, and a special office and a working team on this subject have been established within the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality

Book Landscape and the State in Medieval Anatolia

Download or read book Landscape and the State in Medieval Anatolia written by Scott Redford and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2000 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study, focusing on the Rum Seljuk dynasty in thirteenth-century Anatolia, combines local history, geography, art history, and archaeology to examine instances of an only partially understood garden tradition in one corner of the medieval Mediterranean. Gardens, and their architecture, have been neglected, not only because of the paucity of remains, the architecture they inspired was not monumental and relied strongly on a sense of place, and a sensitivity to the landscape. This book attempts to recover a measure of that sense and that landscape, as well as the activities that endowed them with meaning for those that enjoyed them."--Publisher's website
