Summary
In this episode, former BIAA Assistant Director Dr Daniel Joseph MacArthur Seal (now postdoctoral research fellow at the Scuola Superiore Meridionale, Napoli) talks us through his research on every day life and night life in Istanbul during the early to mid twentieth century. Tune in to hear a wide ranging conversation in which Daniel talks about his work on the British occupation of Istanbul from 1918-1923, the From Enemies to Allies project which traced the evolving relationship between the UK and Türkiye from World War I to NATO allies, and his recent work on histories of the opium trade and sex work in early to mid-twentieth century Istanbul.
