ANCIENT AND BYZANTINE TURKEY
THE SACRED ARCHITECTURE OF BYZANTIUM
A SHORT HISTORY OF THE BYZANTINE EMPIRE Dionysios Stathakopoulos
Art, Liturgy and Symbolism in Early Christian Churches Nicholas N. Patricios
King’s College, University of London
University of Miami
The churches of the Byzantine era were built to represent heaven on earth: architecture, art and liturgy were intertwined in them to a degree that has never been replicated elsewhere. Patricios offers a comprehensive survey of the nexus between buildings, worship and art. His identification of seven distinct Byzantine church types, will have considerable appeal to Byzantinists. Beyond categorising and describing the churches themselves, which are richly illustrated with photographs, plans and diagrams, the author interprets the sacred liturgy that took place within these holy buildings. Focusing on buildings in 22 different locations, this sumptuous book is an essential guide to individual features and the wider significance of Byzantine art and architecture. 384 PAGES 246 X 189MM 2014 9781780762913 HARDBACK £45.00 / $75.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES

The Byzantine Empire was one of the most impressive imperial adventures in history. Stathakopoulos here tells a compelling story of military conquest, alliance and reversal, including the terrifying secret weapon of ‘Greek fire’. His new short history is above all a narrative of individuals: of powerful rulers like Justinian I, who recovered Italy from the Vandals and oversaw construction of Hagia Sofia (completed in 537); of his notorious queen Theodora, a courtesan who rose improbably to the highest office of imperial first lady; of the charismatic but cuckolded general Belisarius; and of the religious leaders Arius and Athanasius, whose conflicting ideas about Christ and doctrine shook the Empire to its core. 192 PAGES 216 X 134MM 2014 9781780761930 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 9781780761947 PAPERBACK £10.99 / $15.95

Interaction and Exchange Among Muslim and Christian Communities A. Asa Eger
University of St Andrews
University of North Carolina
The retreat of the Byzantine army from Syria in around 650 CE, in advance of the approaching Arab armies, is one that has resounded emphatically in the works of both Islamic and Christian writers, and created an enduring motif: that of the Islamic-Byzantine frontier. For centuries, Byzantine and Islamic scholars have evocatively sketched a contested border: the annual raids between the two, the line of fortified fortresses defending Islamic lands, the no-man’s land in between and the birth of jihad. In their early representations of a Muslim-Christian encounter, accounts of the IslamicByzantine frontier are charged with significance for a future ‘clash of civilizations’ that often envisions a polarised world. 432 PAGES 216 X 134MM APRIL 2017 9781784539191 PAPERBACK £17.99 / $27.50
Under Seljuk rule (c. 1081-1308) the formerly Christian Byzantine territories of Anatolia were transformed by the development of Muslim culture, society and politics, and it was then that a Turkish population became firmly established in these lands. But these developments are little understood, and the Seljuk dynasty remains little studied. This volume examines Seljuk culture and history by looking at developments both at court and in society at large, and sheds new light on Seljuk political culture and dynastic ideology, the engagement of politics with religion, and Christian-Muslim interaction. ‘This impressive scholarly volume opens up several new lines of research into the turbulent and little-known history of Seljuk Anatolia.’ – Professor Charles Melville, University of Cambridge 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM MAY 2015 9781848858879 HARDBACK £58 9781784531652 PAPERBACK £17.99 LIBRARY OF MIDDLE EAST HISTORY, VOL. 38

A CULTURAL HISTORY OF THE OTTOMANS NEW The Imperial Elite and its Artefacts Suraiya Faroqhi
Baki Tezcan
University of California
University of Munich
At its height the Ottoman Empire embraced 15 million people across 3 continents. The story of its struggles against Byzantines (culminating in the fall of Constantinople in 1453), Hungarians and Habsburgs is one of the defining narratives of European history. Showing why understanding the Ottomans still matter, Tezcan discusses the formation of the Ottoman state at the end of the 13th Century; Ottoman genius under Süleyman the Magnificent; military victories as well as defeats on sea and land. This timely survey explores government, economy, trade, religion and the arts up to the founding of modern Turkey in 1922. 256 PAGES 216 X 134 MM MARCH 2017 9781780769806 PAPERBACK £10.99 / $15.95 9781780769790 HARDBACK £58.00 / $94.00 I.B.TAURIS SHORT HISTORIES

The Ottoman Empire was more than a centre of military and economic activity; it was a vivid and flourishing cultural force. The artefacts and objects remaining from all corners of this vast empire tell us a great deal about the everyday concerns of the Ottomans. In this book, Faroqhi has selected the most revealing, surprising and striking examples of the cultural artefacts which illuminate the lesser-known cultural and artistic world of the Ottomans. Each image – reproduced in full colour – is linked to the latest historiography, and the social, political and economic implications of her selections are never forgotten. In Faroqhi’s hands, the objects become ways to learn more about trade, gender and socio-political status. They open an enticing window onto the variety and colour of everyday life; from the Sultan’s court, to the peasantry and slavery. 288 PAGES 234 X 156 MM MAY 2016 9781784530969 HARDBACK £25.00 / $40.00

The Rise and Fall of Syria’s Great Merchant City Philip Mansel
Industrialization, Imperial Germany and the Middle East Murat Özyüksel Istanbul University
Aleppo lies in ruins. Its streets plunged into darkness, its population decimated. But this was once a vibrant world city, where Muslims, Christians and Jews lived and traded together in peace. Few places are as ancient and diverse as Aleppo – one of the oldest, continuously inhabited cities in the world – successively ruled by the Assyrian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Arab, Ottoman and French empires. Under the Ottomans, it became the empire’s third largest city, after Constantinople and Cairo. It was a key point on the Silk Road, where merchants gathered in the largest suq in the Middle East. Using accounts spanning 400 years, Philip Mansel vividly describes Aleppo’s decline from a pinnacle of cultural and economic power. This is a poignant testament to a city shattered by Syria’s civil war. 272 PAGES 216 X 135 MM FEBRUARY 2016 9781784534615 HARDBACK £17.99 / $27.95

Railway expansion was the great industrial project of the late 19th Century. The Great Powers built railways at speed, reaping great commercial benefits. The greatest imperial dream was to connect the might of Europe to the potential riches of the Middle East and Ottoman Empire. In 1903 Imperial Germany began to construct a railway to connect Berlin to the Ottoman city of Baghdad, and project German power to the Persian Gulf. The Ottoman Emperor saw the railway as a means to bolster crumbling Ottoman control of Arabia. Using new Ottoman-Turkish sources, Özyüksel shows how the Berlin-Baghdad railway became a symbol of rising European power and declining Ottoman fortunes, marking a new and important contribution to our understanding of the geopolitics of the Middle East before World War I.. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM AUGUST 2016 9781780768823 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF OTTOMAN STUDIES

Imperial Boundary Making in the Late Ottoman Empire G.E. Hubbard
Leiden University
Ottoman Turkey’s coastal provinces in the early 19th Century were economic powerhouses, teeming with innovation, wealth and energy. By the 1920s, after years of modernisation, the coastal cities were ghost towns. This book seeks to unpick how and why this happened. It offers a unique and original insight into the effects of forced migration, displacement, economic reorganisation and the competing political ideologies focused on ‘modernisation’ – central to the study of the late Ottoman Empire. 320 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JANUARY 2016 9781784534707 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00

The western frontier between Persia and the Ottoman Empire was long a source of disputed claims by each. Supposedly settled under the Treaty of Ezerum of 1847, in reality it took a further 70 years to settle the details. Ernest Hubbard was Secretary to the Turco-Persian Frontier Commission and a key factor in its success. From the Gulf to Ararat is his account of his time travelling with them. Often amusing but always informative, it reveals the realities of boundary-making and the need to be aware of local factors such as race, tradition, and religion.With an introduction by Sue Littledale, new photographs, and a foreword by one of the leading international authorities on territorial questions in the Middle East, From the Gulf to Ararat offers an engaging yet remarkably relevant insight into the realities of boundary delimitation. 320 PAGES 234 X 156 MM NOVEMBER 2015 9781784531218 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00

Russian Encounters with the Ottoman Empire Victor Taki University of Alberta
This is the story of the House of Osman, the imperial dynasty that ruled the Ottoman Empire for more than seven centuries, an empire that once stretched from central Europe to North Africa and from Persia to the Adriatic. The capital of this empire was Istanbul, ancient Byzantium, a city that stands astride Europe and Asia on the Bosphorus. And it was in the great palace of Topkapi Sarayi that the sultans of this empire ruled. Inside the Seraglio – a classic of Ottoman history – takes us behind the gilded doors of the Topkapi and into the heart of the palace: the harem, where the sultan would surround himself with his wives, concubines, eunuchs, pages, dwarfs and mutes and where all the tempestuous events of empire were so often played out. This is the history of a remarkable palace in all its colour and opulence and the story of its influence on a great empire. 384 PAGES 198 X 126 MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784535353 PAPERBACK £9.99 / $18.00 TAURIS PARKE PAPERBACKS

BEYOND CONSTANTINOPLE
From the 1700s, the declining Ottoman Empire served as a source of inspiration for the westernisation of Russia. Comparisons between European and Ottoman diplomacy, warfare and political organizations shaped Russian identity and provided the nation with a sense of superiority over its adversary. Tsar and Sultan offers a unique insight into Russian Orientalism as the intellectual force behind Russian-Ottoman encounters. Narratives depicting the brutal realities of Russian-Turkish military conflicts influenced the Orientalisation of the Ottoman Empire. In turn, Russian identity was built as the counterimage to the demonised Turk. This book explains the significance of Russian Orientalism on Russian identity and national policies of westernisation. Students of European History and Middle East studies will appreciate Taki’s analysis of Russian-Turkish relations and their influence on Eurasian history.

Victor Eskenazi, a Sephardic Jew from Constantinople, represented an ethnic and religious minority that thrived in the Ottoman Empire. The beginning of the 20th Century was a critical period in Ottoman history, which saw the end of the Empire, defeat in World War I but also a colourful influx of victorious allied armies and White Russians fleeing the Revolution, contributing to the already cosmopolitan nature of the city. Eskenazi breathed the complex air of this budding new Turkey, with its ideals, contradictions and hopes. His extraordinary memoir – which begins in Constantinople and travels across Europe during and after World War II – tells the remarkable story of a family, poignantly capturing a moment in time which now exists only in memory. 192 PAGES 198 X 126 MM APRIL 2016 9781784532666 HARDBACK £17.99 / $35.00

The Ottoman East, compared to other peripheries of the Ottoman Empire, has received very little attention in Ottoman historiography. So-called taboo subjects such as the fate of Ottoman Armenians and the ‘Kurdish Question’ have contributed to this dearth of analysis. Discussing vital issues, such as trade routes, regional economic trends, migration patterns and the moulding of local and national identities, this book offers a unique approach to the history and politics of empire in the wider region. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM JUNE 2016 9781784533885 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 LIBRARY OF OTTOMAN STUDIES

At the height of the Ottoman Empire, black eunuchs rare, castrated slaves imported from Africa - became a key part of court politics. Unlike white eunuchs, who were only permitted outside the palace, black eunuchs had access to the harem - the Sultan’s inner court. The Chief Black Eunuch, appointed personally by the Sultan, had both the ear of the leader of a vast Islamic Empire and held power over a network of spies and informers, including eunuchs and slaves throughout Constantinople and beyond. The story of these remarkable individuals, who rose from difficult beginnings to become amongst the most powerful people in the Ottoman Empire, is rarely told. George Junne places their stories in the context of the wider history of African slavery, and places them at the centre of Ottoman history, marking a new direction in the study of courtly politics and power in Constantinople.

Erdogan and the Crisis of Modern Turkey NEW Soner Cagaptay
The aborted coup in Turkey has fired up interest in a country which will play a critical geopolitical role in the wars of the Middle East. The spotlight will inevitably be on Erdogan whose increasingly bizarre and authoritarian regime has increased tensions enormously both within and outside the country. With thousands of journalists arrested, academics officially banned from leaving the country, university deans fired and three quarters of highest ranking army officers arrested. Leading Turkish expert Soner Cagaptay will look at where Erdogan comes from in Turkish history, what he believes in, how he has cemented his rule will assess the threats he faces – from the Gulen movement to the Kurdish question. 224 PAGES 216X135MM MAY 2017 9781784538262 HARDBACK £17.99 / $25.00

RageandRevolutioninModern Turkey NEW Kaya Genç
Turkey stands at the crossroads of the Middle East – caught between the West, ISIS, Syria and Russia, and governed by an increasingly hard-line leader. Kaya Genç meets activists from both sides of Turkey’s political divide: Gezi park protestors who fought to transform their country’s future, and supporters of Erdogan’s conservative vision who are no less passionate in their activism. While talking to Turkey’s angry young people Genç weaves in historical stories, visions and mythologies, showing how Turkey’s progressives and conservatives take their ideological roots from two political movements born in the Ottoman Empire, fuelled by a determination to make their country more democratic. He shows a divided society coming to terms with the 21st Century, caught between history and modernity. 240 PAGES 198 X 126MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784534578 PAPERBACK £12.99 / $19.50

REVISED EDITION
A Modern History Erik J. Zürcher
The Politics of Islam, Science and Modernity Caroline Tee University of Cambridge
This revised edition builds upon and updates its twin themes of Turkey’s continuing incorporation into the capitalist world and the modernisation of state and society. Zürcher argues that Turkey’s history between 1908 and 1950 should be seen as a unity, and offers a strongly revisionist interpretation of Turkey’s founding father, Kemal Atatürk. In his account of the period since 1950, Zürcher focuses on the growth of mass politics; the three military coups; Turkey’s human right’s record; the alliance with the West and relations with the European Community;Turkey’s ambivalent relations with the Middle East; the increasingly explosive Kurdish question; and the continuing political instability and growth of Islam. 480 PAGES 216 X 134 MM MAY 2017 9781784531874 PAPERBACK £15.99 / $35.00 9781784531867 HARDBACK £75.00 / $120.00

The Gülen, or Hizmet, movement in Turkey is the country’s most powerful and affluent religious organisation. Its central tenet, advanced by its founder, the Sunni preacher Fethullah Gülen (b. 1941), is that Muslims should engage positively with modernity. But how does the Gülen movement resolve the sometimes conflicting positions of Sunni Islam and contemporary science – for example, on evolutionary theory? Drawing on sustained ethnographic research conducted among Gülen communities in Turkey, Caroline Tee analyses their complex attitudes towards secular modernity. She focuses on education, science research and industry to explore how pious Muslim practitioners engage in science at high levels. 272 PAGES 216 X 134 MM SEPTEMBER 2016 9781784535889 HARDBACK £20.00 / $29.50

‘West’ or ‘East’? ‘Secular’ or ‘Islamic’? ‘Turkish’ or ‘Other’? These seemingly polar opposites have often been lazily used when examining the nature of the modern Turkish state and its society. Here, Turunc seeks to look at the nuance which lies in between these opposites, analysing the explosion of civil society institutions under the aegis and protection of the EU Copenhagen Political Criteria. A fresh look at the current issues within Turkey, this book offers a vital and nuanced analysis of modern Turkey and its political issues. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2017 9781780760919 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

What role do the narratives of the ancient past play in the modern Turkish Republic? How is the knowledge of this past constructed and displayed? Savino answers these questions through an analysis of the role of archaeology and its representation in the service of generating new perceptions of cultural identity in Turkey. The topic is explored through a focus on museums and visual media, addressing the ways in which antiquities became crucial symbols in the establishment and construction of a Turkish national imagination. Creating Images of a Turkish Past illustrates archaeological knowledge practises within a Turkish national context, but also shows that these practises cross national and international boundaries in an attempt to shape collective identities. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM DECEMBER 2017 9781784532529 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

In 1923 the Turkish government, under new leader Kemal Atatürk, signed a renegotiated Balkan Wars treaty with the major powers of the day and Greece. This provided for the forced exchange of 1.3 million Christians from Anatolia to Greece, in return for 30,000 Greek Muslims. The ensuing mass migration was a humanitarian catastrophe. But both the Greek and Turkish leadership saw this exchange as crucial to the state-strengthening projects both powers were engaged in after World War I. Bedlek approaches this enormous shift in national thinking through literary texts – addressing the themes of loss, identity, memory and trauma which both populations experienced. The result is a new understanding of the tensions between religious and ethnic identity in modern Turkey. 272 PAGES 216 X 134 MM DECEMBER 2015 9781784531270 HARDBACK £62.00 / $99.00 INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF TWENTIETH CENTURY HISTORY

In 2005 Turkey introduced a set of legal reforms to curb incidents of honour killings. But in the years since this reform, there are still reports of gender-based violence and such honour killings are still taking place. Here, Birdal asks what has gone wrong. What is problematic about the relation between written law and reality? Why has this new law not had a lasting impact? In looking at the interplay between state and society through the lens of honour killings, Birdal offers a sociological insight into modern Turkey. 288 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2017 9781780765259 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

TV Talk shows, often seen as vulgar and low-brow, can actually be a vehicle through which hitherto undiscussed topics (such as violence against women or political exclusion) are brought into the public sphere. Sanli argues that this is the case in Turkey, where talk shows often invite ordinary women from lower socio-economic classes to speak of their experiences of family life: marriage, divorce, child custody rights and relations with in-laws. Specifically looking at popular women’s talk shows such as these (commonly called ‘Woman’s Voice’ television), Sanli explores how groups with political and cultural power control public discourse and the public sphere in Turkey, and how urban/rural and Islamist/secular oppositions are constructed and evolve. 288 PAGES 216 X 134MM DECEMBER 2015 9781780763927 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

Eric Hobsbawm famously called late 20th Century Turkey ‘the last stronghold of the peasantry’. Turkey’s unique social, cultural and economic development after World War II kept intact a large social group which had all but disappeared in the rest of Europe by the 1960s. In the first period of Turkish multi-party democracy, this peasantry were re-invented, re-defined and ‘imagined’ by various political factions as Turkey attempted to shed its Ottoman past. Through the translation of ‘village literature’, the agency of this previously unheard voice is revealed, along with its role in the formation of Turkey. 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM OCTOBER 2016 9781780761138 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF ETHNICITY, IDENTITY AND CULTURE, VOL. 2

Despite its more liberal and democratic characteristics, conservative elements within Turkish politics and society have made gains in recent decades. As a result, Turkish society has multiple standards when naming, evaluating and reacting to men who have sex with men. Cenk Özbay argues that overall, self-identified gay men (as well as men who practice clandestine same-sex acts) are generally marginalised, ostracised and rendered ‘immoral’ in both everyday practices and social institutions. He offers an analysis of the concept of masculinity as central to redefining boundaries of class, gender and sexuality. Using in-depth interviews, Özbay further explores the changing discourses and meaning of class, gender and queer sexualities, and how these three are embedded within urban and familial narratives. 272 PAGES 216 X 135MM MARCH 2017 9781784533175 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00

The Diyanet is the ‘Presidency of Religious Affairs’, the official face of Islam and highest religious authority in Turkey, and is a governmental department established in 1924 after the break-up of the Ottoman Empire. In this book, Emir Kaya offers an in-depth multidisciplinary analysis of this vital institution. Focusing on the role of the Diyanet in society, Kaya explores the balance the institution has to strike between the Islamic traditions of the Turkish population and the officially secular creed of the Turkish state. By examining the various laws that either bolstered or hindered the Diyanet’s budgets and activities, Kaya highlights the institutional mindsets of the Diyanet membership as well as evaluating its successes and failures as a governmental department that has to consistently operate within the context of the religiosity of Turkish society.

Neo-Ottomanism and the Strategic Depth Doctrine Alexander Murinson, Bar-Ilan University, Israel
Modern Turkey sits right at the centre of many geopolitical areas of influence and since the end of the Cold War, Turkish foreign policy has undergone a tremendous transformation to capitalise on this position. Alexander Murinson explores this situation by highlighting the historical roots of the neo-Ottoman foreign policy called ‘strategic depth’ that attempts to position Turkey as not only leader of the Muslim and Turkic worlds, but also as a central power in Eurasia. This ambition reflects Turkey’s aim to become a moderator and a ‘curator’ of interactions in the adjacent regions, including the Caucasus, the Balkans and the wider Middle East. For Murinson, this policy requires Turkey to play the role the Ottoman Empire used to perform in the region. 320 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2017 9781784532406 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF MODERN TURKEY

The New Foreign Policies Kubilay Yado Arin Portland State University
Recently, there has been a radical shift in the tone of Turkish foreign policy. From a quiet acquiescence with EU recommendations to the more recent vocal rhetoric and contrarian positioning, Turkey has managed to negotiate a pivotal position for itself within the wider region. Kubilay Yado Arin looks at this change in foreign policy within the context of Turkey’s relationship with the US and the EU. Examining the concepts of hard, soft, and smart power in Turkish foreign policy, he focuses on the US’ support of a Turkish bid for EU membership, and what this means for relations between Washington and Ankara. Looking specifically at the ways in which think tanks have an effect on policy-making processes, reshaping the foreign policy agenda at a time of political transformation and regional crises due to the civil conflict in Syria. 256 PAGES 216 X 134 MM OCTOBER 2016 9781784536053 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 LIBRARY OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

TRAVEL
AN ISTANBUL ANTHOLOGY
NEW
Travel Writing through the Centuries Kaya Genç (Ed) For centuries following its reestablishment as Constantinople in AD 330, Istanbul served as the capital of three great empires: Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman. The city’s maze-like streets and steep alleys, flower gardens and forested hillsides remain soaked in the vestiges of that imperial past, and it is to that past and to Istanbul’s unique character that so many writers and diarists journeyed in search of escape, knowledge, happiness, or sheer wonderment. An Istanbul Anthology takes us on a nostalgic journey through the city, from the sights, smells, and sounds of Istanbul’s bazaars and coffeehouses, its grand palaces and gardens, crumbling buildings, to its ancient churches and mosques, and the waters that so haunt and define it. With writers such as Gustave Flaubert, Pierre Loti, Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain, and André Gide, we discover and rediscover the many delights of this great city, the meeting point of East and West, and gateway civilisations. 160 PAGES 120 X 160MM NOVEMBER 2015 9789774167218 HARDBACK £11.99 THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY IN CAIRO PRESS

COOKERY
SHERBET AND SPICE
The Complete Story of Turkish Sweets and Desserts Mary Isin The stories behind Turkey’s huge variety of sweets and puddings are as fascinating as their multiplicity of flavours. This riveting exploration of their history and role in Turkish culture is a voyage of adventure, taking us from the sultan’s palace to the homes of ordinary people in Turkey’s villages and towns, and beyond to Central Asia, Persia, Arabia, Egypt and the Levant. This is the land of Turkish delight perfumed with rosewater and musk, rose jam, baklava filled with nuts, clotted cream or cheese, milk puddings and helvas, strings of nuts dipped in grape syrup, and model gardens built of sugar carried in wedding processions. The first study of Turkish confectionery ever to be published, Sherbet and Spice offers a rare look at the evolution of sweets from the non-European angle, based on many Turkish sources little known outside Turkey that lend a new dimension to the subject. ‘A fascinating and informative exploration of the role of sweetness in Turkish culture over the centuries.’ – Laura Mason, food historian and author of Sugar-plums and Sherbet 304 PAGES 228 X 155MM ILLUSTRATED 2012 9781848858985 HARDBACK £20.00

CLASSIC TURKISH COOKING
The Cuisine of a Legendary Empire Andrew Dalby
For centuries the food and culinary delights of the Byzantine empire – centred on Constantinople – have captivated the West This book reveals in astonishing detail, for the first time, what was eaten in the court of the Eastern Roman Empire – and how it was cooked. Fusing the spices of the Romans with the seafood and simple local food of the Aegean and Greek world, the cuisine of the Byzantines was unique and a precursor to much of the food of modern Turkey and Greece. Bringing this vanished cuisine to life in vivid and sensual detail, Dalby describes the sights and smells of Constantinople and its marketplaces, relates travellers’ tales and paints a comprehensive picture of the recipes and customs of the empire and their relationship to health and the seasons, love and medicine. 272 PAGES 198 X 126MM 2010 9781848851658 PAPERBACK £14.99
