İstanbul, which has a highly colorful cultural heritage that very few cities enjoy across the world, has been inhabited by groups of people with diverse ethnic roots, languages, and faiths that have created interconnected cultural syntheses throughout centuries. İstanbul Research Institute began its programs with the aim to study and present the rich cultural diversity and cross-cultural influences in İstanbul. In line with the Institute’s publication mission and within a broad framework that embraces Antiquity, Byzantium, Ottoman and Republican periods, the sixth issue of the Annual compiles works from original research projects on various aspects of İstanbul’s history, architecture, and cultural identity, as well as on the conservation and repair of its cultural assets.
