Starting point is the 'visible city'; the ways in which continuity and change in history are still observable in present-day Istanbul. The contributors, each of them foremost experts in their fields, address the interaction between the different layers of time from various sources and perspectives. They explore how later inhabitants received and appropriated the legacy of their predecessors, and how the city's tangible and intangible heritage has been perceived and (ab)used in both the past and the present. Contributors are: Ceren Abi, Diederik Burgersdijk, Buket Cengiz, Floris van den Eijnde, Fokke Gerritsen, Paolo Girardelli, Mark Humphries, Brian Johnson, Enno Maessen, Filippo Ronconi, Fabian Schulz, Rolf Strootman, Shaun Tougher, Nicola Verderame, Mariëtte Verhoeven, Joanita Vroom, Willemijn Waal, Richard Wittmann"--
