Istanbul has long been a place where stories and histories collide, where perception is as potent as fact.
From the Koran to Shakespeare, this city with three names--Byzantium, Constantinople, Istanbul--resonates as an idea and a place, real and imagined. Standing as the gateway between East and West, North and South, it has been the capital city of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. For much of its history it was the very center of the world, known simply as "The City," but, as Bettany Hughes reveals, Istanbul is not just a city, but a global story.
In this epic new biography, Hughes takes us on a dazzling historical journey from the Neolithic to the present, through the many incarnations of one of the world's greatest cities--exploring the ways that Istanbul's influence has spun out to shape the wider world. Hughes investigates what it takes to make a city and tells the story not just of emperors, viziers, caliphs, and sultans, but of the poor and the voiceless, of the women and men whose aspirations and dreams have continuously reinvented Istanbul.
Written with energy and animation, award-winning historian Bettany Hughes deftly guides readers through Istanbul's rich layers of history. Based on meticulous research and new archaeological evidence, this captivating portrait of the momentous life of Istanbul is visceral, immediate, and authoritative--narrative history at its finest.
Bettany Hughes is an award-winning historian, author, and broadcaster. Her previous books, Helen of Troy and The Hemlock Cup, were published to great critical acclaim and worldwide success. Hughes has made a number of factual films and documentaries for the BBC, PBS, National Geographic, Discovery, The History Channel, and ABC. She is a Research Fellow of King's College London and has been honored with numerous awards including the Norton Medlicott Medal for History.
還可以吧,編年式記敘伊斯坦布爾從多神國傢到基督教國傢,再到穆斯林國傢的曆史。信息比較豐富。
評分雖然最後升華主題的時候關於人類本性對於cosmopolitan value的追求有點牽強附會,還是覺得寫的好好的一本這個城市的紀念。很少有城市有這麼宏大又包容的史詩感,從古羅馬到ottoman,到如今在東西方之間尋找並強化turk身份的遊離狀態,好美的故事,人類社會的一步步演化,我們的傲慢與偏見,貪婪與虛榮,夢想與野心,所有的人性都在這裏被激發展現。異域的背景下其實這座城市離我們並沒有想象中那麼遠。

評分君士坦丁堡、伊斯坦布爾,曆經三個文明,見證瞭人性與宗教的起落,沒去時想她,離開後想她。
評分1453年,西方世界就真正睡醒瞭,而且醒來以後的動作非常非常快。
晶报2020.1.02刊登,约5200字。 每座都市都有历史与记忆。只是,有谁会像它那样,拥有一体三面:伊斯坦布尔、君士坦丁堡,拜占庭。 在古典时代,它是拜占庭,古希腊的殖民城市,西方文明的源头之一。公元330年,罗马皇帝君士坦丁迁都于此,更名君士坦丁堡。395年,东、西罗马分...
評分没拿到书。就以豆瓣上有人贴出来的译文来做比较: 君士坦丁堡的创建者是一群以城市为据点的军人;伊斯坦布尔的创建者则 是游牧商人与战士。奥斯曼人了解道路法则,深谙保持沟通路线畅通与开放的 绝对重要性。奥斯曼人的统治被形容为“速度政治”(dromocracy)— 一个 道路强权,...
評分进入出版行业已经是第十个年头,真正开始找到做一个编辑的门径却不过二三年。《伊斯坦布尔三城记》是我并不太长的职业生涯中一本“困难”的书。当初以很高的代价买下这本书时,我以为自己将面临的最大挑战是送审、拿书号(耗时两年),翻译、编校70万字的世界史(三位编辑前后...
評分伊斯坦布尔不同于世上的任何城市。如果这么说稍显武断,那么加个限定:至少在公元410年罗马陷落之后的一千多年里,对地中海世界的人们来说,这是千真万确的。“伊斯坦布尔”这个名字,就是希腊语“去城里”的意思,一如北欧的维京海盗也只称它为“大城”,因为对当时整个西方和...
評分如果让作家为城市代言,伊斯坦布尔最广为人知的代言人或是帕慕克。寻访帕慕克的伊斯坦布尔,不止于旅游手册里的海景、教堂、清真寺,还能欣赏细密画、啜饮小贩的钵扎、参观纯真博物馆。因细节而爱上一座城,会不会仍然失之主观呢? 在贝塔尼·休斯的《伊斯坦布尔三城记》卷首,...
