As Rome’s power faded away, Constantinople (modern Istanbul) took on a leading role and Eastern and Western civilization. This course will explore this vibrant city through its architecture, literature, food culture, music, cinematography, and public spaces — the many aspects of this metropolitan region that remains a transnational crossroad of world identities and unabated allure.
