Description

Explore the deep history of one of Istanbul's most significant sites with this scholarly study from Brill. Following the reconversion of the former monastic church of Saint Saviour in Chora to a mosque in August 2020, this book provides a necessary look at the site's evolving role in the city. This work moves beyond traditional studies that focus only on the Byzantine era and Palaiologan mosaics. Instead, it offers a transcultural perspective that tracks the continuous changes in form and function from Late Antiquity to the 21st century. It is an essential resource for those interested in the history of Constantinople and the architectural evolution of religious buildings. By examining the site through a wide historical lens, the text provides context for how this landmark has transitioned through different eras and religious identities. Whether you are a student of Mediterranean art history or a researcher of religious architecture, this volume offers a comprehensive view of the Chora/Kariye Camii site.
