CORNUCOPIA Issue 55, 2017
Cornucopia Magazine est une publication en anglais.
Issue 55 highlights:
Blithe Ottoman caricatures, a photographer’s hymn to Anatolia, the glory of Lycia’s bulbs, Erzurum the enigmatic, mastic, the Turkish impressionist Feyhaman Duran, the Benaki’s new palm court, gripping biographies of Mark Sykes and Steven Runciman, and the delightful memoirs of two freewheeling scholar-adventurers. Plus the cherished chickpea and its many gifts.
Published twice a year, Cornucopia is the magazine for connoisseurs of Turkey. This independent publication – gorgeous enough for the coffee table, serious enough to be found in academic libraries – is an ever-growing compendium of all things Turkish: history, culture, art, food, travel.
The arbiter of taste Tyler Brûlé has called Cornucopia in the FT ‘a cross between The World of Interiors and National Geographic, with a gentle Turkic twist’. For The New York Review of Magazines, ‘It’s a truism that the measure of a travel magazine’s success is whether it makes you yearn to visit the destinations it depicts. Cornucopia goes one better. It is a vacation in itself.’ For the blog Quintessence, ‘Cornucopia is indeed an apt name for this publication of plenty, overflowing with Turkish beauty, inspiration and edification.’
