Description: This seminar engages in debates about urban modernity focusing on three cities Istanbul, Cairo and Beirut. We examine these cities during the period of rapid modernization brought about by the Ottoman reforms of the 1840s and their post-Ottoman period. We will explore innovative methodologies to the study of Mediterranean cities by reflecting on the everyday life, the multiplicity of processes inherent to the shaping of urban space, questions of identities and concepts of citizenry, and the tensions playing out in the making of a modern urban order.
