HIST 234 Constantinople, 1453: History, Experience, Narrative 6 credits
In the spring of 1453, the inhabitants of the city of Constantinople found themselves besieged and eventually conquered by the rising power of the Ottoman Turks. The density and variety of the surviving historical evidence offer a distinctive opportunity to explore and to understand the ways in which people, structures, interests, beliefs, and circumstances interacted to bring about this transformative event. The contemporary and, at times, eyewitness nature of the sources also pose profound questions about historical analysis, narrative, explanation, and story-telling. In this collaboration between the History department and the Theater program, we will develop our own historically informed narratives along with performances that do justice to the events' many facets and implications.
