Venetians in Constantinople: Nation, Identity, and Coexistence in the Early Modern Mediterranean

The introduction to this book is dazzling . . . The Venetian community in Constantinople provides an excellent site for exploration of issues of nation and identity . . . [Dursteler's] overall intention-to demonstrate cultural diversity in a place and era that has been commonly assumed to lack it-remains firmly at the fore, and he admirably fulfills his task.
