SUMMARY:Vicky Manolopoulou\, "A Landscape of Fear and Hope: Perceptions and Responses to Environmental change in Byzantine Constantinople"
DESCRIPTION:BSA/SPBS lecture\nDr Vicky Manolopoulou (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice)\, “A Landscape of Fear and Hope: Perceptions and Responses to Environmental change in Byzantine Constantinople”\nHow did the environment shape landscape experience in Byzantine Constantinople? This talk explores aspects of the environmental history of the city by focusing on environmental emotion; it discusses how the city’s inhabitants experienced\, imagined\, and emotionally adapted to a changing environment shaped by earthquakes\, storms\, and other challenging climatic conditions. Drawing together newly available high-resolution paleoclimatic data from the Uzuntarla speleothem record with textual and archaeological evidence\, the paper uncovers how Constantinople’s citizens transformed fear and uncertainty into narratives of hope\, resilience\, and divine protection. Moving between the concepts of “landscapes of fear” and “landscapes of hope\,” it illuminates the affective dimensions of urban life in the Byzantine world and the multifaceted relationship between people and place. \nTo attend online via webinar\, please register HERE \nLocation: Lecture Theatre 2.16\, 2nd Floor\, Armstrong Building (University map ref:22)\, Newcastle University
