Klappentext zu „Reclaiming Byzantium: Russia, Turkey and the Archaeological Claim to the Middle East in the 19th Century “
In 1894, Imperial Russia opened one of the world's leading centres for Byzantine archaeology in Istanbul, the Russian Archaeological Institute - its purpose was to stake the claim that Russia was the correct heir to ?Tsargrad' (as Istanbul was referred to in Russian circles). Pinar Ure looks at the founding of the Russian Archaeological Institute, its aims and its place in the ?digging-race' which characterised the late Imperial phase of modern history. Above all she shows how the practise of history has been used as a political tool, a form of "soft power".
