İstanbul'u bir erken modern dönem başkenti ve metropolü olarak ele alarak, şehir ve şehirlilik tahayyüllerini üç ana konu üzerinden inceliyor: mekân pratiklerine bağlı olarak oluşan ve dönüşen görme biçimleri, göze/ görmeye dair lügatin özellikleri ve bu lügatin mekân pratikleri ile bağlantıları; yeni bir şehirli zümrenin oluşmasına koşut olarak yeni türden kamusallıkların ve çok sesli temsil biçimlerinin ortaya çıkması; bu dönemin siyasi dinamiklerinin şehrin kamusal alanlarını müzakere ve muhalefet mekânları haline getirmesi ve bu yeni dinamiğin görsel temsildeki yansımaları.
Abstract: Exploring intersections of spaces, practices, and representations of urbanity and the city in late sixteenth-century Istanbul, this paper traces the emergence of the main public square and the streets of the Ottoman capital as the main site for a set of new themes in illustrated court histories and chronicles. It focuses particularly on the illustrated copy of İntizami's Sûrnâme (1588) along with other texts and images, including a city view from these years. The paper considers new visual imaginings of city and urbanity in light of three issues that resonate with the history of early modern Istanbul: the modalities and the lexicon of vision as they took shape parallel to the changing spatial practices; the emergence of polyphonic forms of representation and new publicities concomitant to the emergence of a new urban public; and the pictorial and textual reflections of the conflicted political environment that turned the city's public spaces into arenas of contestation and conflict.

Fakat bugünkü tartışma bağlamında anıtın kendisi ile ilgili soru çok basit. Ayasofya bir savaş ganimeti, Türklerin geçmiş ve müstakbel fetihlerinin simgesi, bir zafer anıtı mı? Yoksa bir İstanbul mirası, 1500 senelik tarihinin her gününü sahiplenebildiğimiz, çoğul tarihine ve farklı katmanlarına eşit derecede değer ve yer verdiğimiz bir İstanbul ve dünya anıtı mı?”

The chapter deals with the time, spaces and behaviours associated with social life, i.e. with the interdependent coexistence of the inhabitants of Istanbul. It encompasses the period from the early sixteenth century, when texts with a direct relevance to Istanbul begin to appear, until 1826. It is structured around some key topics on leisure time, the importance and forms of sociability, the associated places, the behaviours favoured in social life, such as games, discussion or other forms of entertainment, and the social manners and decorum. Special emphasis is given to the development of concepts and rules, always with an eye toward a social interpretation, as well as to the difference of moralities applying to private or public environments.
