Fin de Siecle Beirut: The Making of an Ottoman Provincial Capital - Oxford Historical Monographs
Hanssen, Jens (Assistant Professor of Middle East and Mediterranean History, University of Toronto)
Combining urban theory with postcolonial methodology, this book argues that modern Beirut is the outcome of persistent social and intellectual struggles over the production of space. Drawing on several Ottoman government documents, Arabic sources, and European archival material, it traces the urban experience of modernity in the Ottoman Empire.
