Toronto: Talonbooks, 1999 Book. New. Soft cover. 1st Can Ed.. "Called "the sick man of Europe" at the beginning of the 20th century, 100 years of history have done nothing to effect a cure on a thoroughly dysfunctional Turkey .. Repeatedly rebuffed by the European Union because of its corrupt, chaotic and unstable internal affairs, Turkey's "modernist revolution," created by Kemal Ataturk and his successors, has failed to create a cohesive state .. Instead it has increasingly divided the people of this once proud empire .. Nowhere has this been illustrated more tragically than in the universal cry of dispair among the victims and survivors of the devastating earthquake of 1999: "Where is the state..?" .. How and why has this happened? It is to answer this question that ... Reed undertook a series of journeys to discover the "hidden Turkey" - its ethnic diversity ,its Islamic spirituality, its ancient and resonant history and the repression and…

Description:
New York: Random House, 1995 Book. As New. Hardcover. 1st US Edition.. Part travel and part luminous cultural history of the Byzantine Empire. "A high point of civilization and artistic accomplishment, the Byzantine Empire has also been the object of great misunderstanding and prejudice. This is a portrayal of its cultural history focusing on its surreal landscapes and fantastic monuments. The book starts in Istanbul and crosses the Sea of Marmara to travel through Anatolia, the region of Asiatic Turkey which was the source of the Empire's wealth and manpower. John Ash finds his way through a country of anachronisms and contrasts, of bloody feuds and frescoed cave-churches, of saints and sinners, of emperors and sultans. The book introduces the reader to an exotic cast of characters, including the impassioned aesthete Theophilus, the great mystical poet Rumi, the bishop and necromancer Theodore Santabarenos and the Empress Theophano" 329. p.
