This course will examine the multi-layered history of Istanbul, focusing primarily on the built environment. In a chronological fashion, the course will explore changes and continuities in the urban space in relation to the city's political, social and economic history, from the Byzantine imperial capital to its transformation into an Ottoman city, and from an Ottoman into a modern city in the Late Ottoman and Republican periods. Within the chronological framework, the course will give a thematic overview over fortifications, imperial palaces, mosques, churches, synagogues, modest neighborhoods, commercial centers, and spaces for civic ritual and entertainment.
An inquiry concerning the idea with which Western philosophy begins: we are rational animals. An investigation of what kind of power rationality is and in what respects it sets humans apart from non-rational creatures. An examination of the commonplace instances of irrationality such as weakness of the will, wishful thinking, and self-deception in order to explain the possibility of irrationality in the lives of beings which are by nature rational.
The history of writing, the relation of symbol and sound, ideas and purposes of invention of writing and how it is used throughout time from its beginnings until today. Focusing on examination, discussion of primary sources from various periods and geographies. Providing background information (history, archaeology, geography, social history, art history) of the discussed periods. Analyzing questions such as who was allowed to write, what kind of genre were written, which languages are known, the importance of oral traditions, changes with the media revolution and gender inequality.
A musicological survey of Istanbul from Byzantium to today. Musics of various residing cultures, subcultures, and communities will be investigated, including different traditions, performers, styles, and genres. While the main concentration is on music, contextual backgrounds would also be reviewed. Scholarly and popular texts from various sources as well as a rich musical repertoire will be covered. Musical training or background in music is not necessary.
