  • Constantinople

    Constantinople
    Aug 11 2024
    From humble beginnings as a modest Greek colony, through its later grandeur as part of the Roman and Ottoman Empire, the city of Constantinople has witnessed centuries of transformation. A melting pot of cultures and religions, it was the bridge between the East and West, where ideas, trade, and people converged. How then, did Mehmed II succeed where so many others had failed? What did the fall of the city in 1453 mean for the next stage of its history? And what other highs, lows, and ruthless ambition did it witness for more than a millennium? This is a Short History Of….Constantinople. A Noiser production, written by Nicola Rayner. With thanks to Bryan Ward-Perkins, Emeritus Professor of Late Antique History at the University of Oxford, and the author of The Fall of Rome and the End of Civilization. And, Geoffrey Greatrex, professor of Classics at the University of Ottawa. Get every episode of Short History Of a week early with Noiser+.

A great way to explore history you may not know about

I really really enjoy these. I love history and these help me to get a snipit of something I may not know much about. Asian history has never really been something I’ve cared much about but the episodes are so well done I find myself enjoying the topic no matter what.
