Istanbul, com'è stata chiamata fin dalla conquista ottomana del 1453, ma com'è denominata ufficialmente solo all'indomani della Prima guerra mondiale. "Nèa Ryme", Nuova Roma, secondo il suo nome ufficiale. Costantinopoli, il suo vero nome, da sempre e per sempre. Un nome che evoca immagini mirabili: il sogno dell'Oriente, le lontananze raggiungibili attraverso il Bosforo e l'Anatolia. Le moschee, gli harem, i sufi danzanti, gli aromi dei bazar. Da mezzo millennio l'Europa identifica in quella sola città il prezioso anello di congiunzione fra l'antichità perduta e la modernità.

Tra il Trecento e il Novecento gli ottomani edificarono un enorme impero incastrato tra Occidente e Oriente, con il chiaro proposito di unire l'Asia e l'Europa.
