About the Book
This volume traces the historical evolution of port-cities, examining their transformation from emporia to gateways and interrogating their nature over time. The contributors highlight the hybridity and cosmopolitan character of port-cities, celebrating their role as cultural crossroads that foster exchange, negotiation, and interaction.
By discussing themes such as cross-cultural competition, port-hinterland relations, and textual evidence, the essays provide deep insights into how port-cities developed historically and how their legacy continues to shape global port systems today.
Rich in historical detail and comparative analysis, this volume is an essential resource for students, researchers, and readers interested in maritime history, urban studies, trade networks, and cultural encounters.
