Known as \"the island of the Pope\", due to its Catholic majority, Syros transformed into a major commercial hub, seemingly triggering the withdrawal of its indigenous Latin community. Juxtaposing the view from the Archipelago with that from Istanbul, the Peloponnese, Rome, Paris and Vienna, this volume revisits the island's history. From early encounters between native inhabitants and groups from across the Ottoman Levant, to how the Latin community navigated conflict and change during the Greek War of Independence, this book offers new insights into the political, cultural and social history of the region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitris Kousouris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1805398598\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781805398592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Dimitris Kousouris","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46602996515071,"sku":"9781805398592","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_180f1f3b-91e9-403c-88a7-fec09ad9cf5e.jpg?v=1739695895","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-island-of-the-pope-dimitris-kousouris-9781805398592","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
