The Pervititch maps that are published in this book should be interpreter from this general point of view. Istanbul realized its modernization in the second half on the 19th century. The frequent fires that occurred in the city were major disasters for its inhabitants, but at the same time created opportunities for the city administrators who intended to push through this modernization. In the aftermath of the 1870 Beyoglu fire, one of the biggest of these fires, a significant change occurered in the realitonship between society and fires. The population of Istanbul became acquainted with insurance that covered fire risks. Numerous insurance companies established branches in Istanbul. Fire insurance became a productive industry. This development turned maps showing the fire risks in the building stock of the city an extremely necessary source of information for insurance companies. Initially, insurance maps were commisioned to the C.E. Goad Company for a rahter limited area of the city between 1904-1906. Later, Jacques Pervititch prepared much more detailed maps covering almost the entire area of the city for the Central Office of Turkish Insurance Agents. Pervititch drew over 230 maps between 1922 and 1945.
2010New English Original decorative cloth bdg. Folio. (41 x 31 cm). In English and Turkish. 255 p. Fully color ills. and maps. A map collection including 100 maps chosen which cover 500 years of Constantinople, 1422-1922. To be able to see Istanbul from so hign up and yet to see into it so deeply. To look from the moon and touch a minaret or reach out from Mars and caress the dome of Hagia Sophia. For close to seventeen years almost all of these maps have passed through our hands and for those that did not, we have always had a picture of them in our minds. Some that are close to five hundred years old look as though they have just left the press, while others more recent have been reduced to tatters. However as soon as we decided upon this book they all started to come to life notwithstanding their musty smell. We are not historians, but we are Istanbullu and we all share the d bringing these extraordinary mysteries out into the light of day. It was down to Ayse Yetiskin Kubilay (PhD), who, with great application and expertise put them in their historical context. Tansel Baybara managed to create miracles with the graphic designer's skill and it goes without saying rid of this would have been conceivable without Ulkem Ozge Sevgilier. From the moment we decided to publish this book we were s by both enthusiasm and encouragement, the surprise of which still overwhelms and gives us pleasure now. From the very first draft, all those have contributed but a few words in counsel, have become partner enterprise. However, there are a few who cannot pass without mention: first is born Nick Adjemoglou with his passion for Istanbul, and as if to prove that fact, he has dedicated years of his life to his extraordinary collection which he so generously shared with us, all the way from Athens. And ther our good friend Erhan Oner, who shared our enthusiasm, temperir all his own experience. Finally there are Bahattin Oztuncay and Mert Sandalci who have supported this project at every stage with their knowledge and experience. We must extend our profound gratitude to the Agaoglu Group stinting support which they have contributed from the moment they first laid eyes on the project. We consider it a milestone in our publishing life the moment that Yalcin Balci came into our book store to pick through few volumes. We ask for your understanding if we have overlooked anyone, but as we mentioned before, we are still a little overwhelmed. The scent of Pera's vineyards remains in our nostrils still. A heavy volume. Extra shipping cost will be requested.
