| Publisher Description: This multi-disciplinary volume shows 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 is the first collective effort to reflect the wealth of recent scholarship on early modern Istanbul, embracing novel subjects and questions, and fresh approaches to older debates. Assembling topics seldom treated together, and crisscrossing the socioeconomic, political, cultural, environmental, and spatial, it examines the myriad human and non-human actors, local and global, that shaped the city into one of the key sites of early modern urbanity.
