释义 |
EtymologyZoqaq al-Blat literally means "the cobbled alley", this was a colloquial name given to the street extending from the old city to the Qantari hill and which was covered with cobblestones in the 19th century.[2] Zuqaq al-Blat is also commonly called "al-miBatrakieh" ({{lang-ar|البطركية}}, the Patriarchate) due to the presence of the seat of the Greek Catholic Patriarchate of Beirut within its borders.[2] HistoryOnce a medieval walled port town, Beirut experienced rapid growth during the second half of the 19th century; the overcrowded city developed beyond its walls and the affluent citizens started to build their villas on the slopes of the surrounding hills, namely Ashrafieh, Qnatari and Musaytbeh.[3][4] In 1832 Beirut came under the occupation of Ibrahim Pasha's troops. The new Egyptian authorities undertook grand works of urban planning and sanitation. The appointed Egyptian-Circassian governor of Beirut, Mahmoud Naami Bey commissioned street cobbling works which stretched beyond the city's walls, the street extending from the south-western side of the city wall into the new extramural neighborhoods on the Qantari hill came to be known as Zoqaq al-Blat and gave its name to the quarter.[5] References1. ^{{cite book | title=Fin de Siècle Beirut: The Making of an Ottoman Provincial Capital | publisher=Oxford University Press | author=Hanssen, Jens | year=2005 | isbn=0199281637|url=https://books.google.com.lb/books?id=Irx86skHYioC&dq}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.yabeyrouth.com/pages/index20.htm | script-title=ar:زقاق البلاط | publisher=yabeyrouth.com | accessdate=February 14, 2013|language=ar}} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12607699/index.pdf |title=Urban transformation of ottoman port cities in the nineteenth century: Change from ottoman Beirut to French mandatory Beirut | publisher=Middle East Technical University | work=Thesis submitted to the graduate school of social sciences of Middle East technical university | date=September 2006 | accessdate=February 9, 2013 | author=ÖZTÜRK, PELİN KİHTİR}} 4. ^{{cite book| title=Beirut | publisher=University of California Press | author=Kassir, Samir | authorlink=Samir Kassir | year=2010 |isbn=0520256689 |author2=M.
