| Kitap Tanıtımı | Churches in Istanbul is a book an interesting aspect of a city of many colours and many worlds: Once ´the Rome of the East´ , Istanbul has housed many religions, and still remains an attraction for visitors who wish to explore the memory of a distant past. The religious sites of the Christian peoples who worshipped in the city gives one the opportunity to do just that. Some of these churches are still active, some are in ruins, and some have been turned into mosques - but they all carry the crent of history within their stones, their domes and arches, their altars, their chapels... Edith Oyhon and Bente Etingü have wandered in the streets of Istanbul searching for traces of time past. This book is a journey into those worlds that they have discovered: Stories of how some of the churches dating back to Byzantine times werw built, traces of history into the traditions of the Eastern Ctholics, Latin Catholics, the Orthodox, the Anglicans, the Protestens and others... Churches in Istanbul is a guide that will encourage the reader - wanderer to seek further in a city that hides much more! |
