En savoir plus sur le livre

This book describes places that have had continuing and diverse religious interest in Turkey from very earliest times. This is a land of great physical beauty and great natural resources, making it also a land greatly desired by many people. From the beginning it has been a bridge, a crossroads, a place of pilgrimage, challenging people to envision new and more complex concepts in political, social, artistic, and religious terms. In spite of both the beauty and the harshness of the land, the generations who have lived here have contributed a remarkable degree of understanding of life and toleration for each other's faith. Because of their records, we can appreciate the power, the symbolism, and the commonality of our ancestors' responses. Hoş geldiniz to Turkey: may your visit be pleasant and in peace.
