Onlar, insanlar arasından seçilmiş ve farklılıkları olan kişilerdi. Onlar, hayatlarını diğer insanlardan farklı yaşadı. Onlar, amaçlarıyla, hedefleriyle, misyonlarıyla kişisel hareket etmedi. Onlar, yaptıklarıyla isimlerini tarih sayfalarına yazdırdı. Onlar, herkesten farklı yaşadı, farklı sevdi, farklı ağladı. Onlar, konuşmalarıyla herkeste saygı uyandırdı. Onlar, kitleleri peşlerinden sürükledi. Onlar, dün ve bugün unutulmadıkları gibi yarında unutulmayacaklardı. Onlar, farklı düşündü farklı baktı. Onlar; nerede, ne zaman ve nasıl öldüler. Ben merak ettim, sizlerin de merak edeceğinizi düşünerek araştırdım. Ülkemizin ve dünyanın tanıdığı 61 ünlü ismin ölüm öncesini, ölüm anını ve nasıl öldüklerini, diyalog ortamına getirerek hikayemsi bir anlatımla ele kaleme aldım. Bu eseri okuduğunuzda şaşıracak, inanmak istemeyeceğiniz bilgilerle karşılaşacaksınız.
Allah, her kuluna şehitlik makamını nasip etmez. Çünkü o makam cennetle müjdelenmiştir. Dünden bugüne şehitler oldu ve oluyor. Ancak bazı şehitler var ki verdikleri mesajla unutulmazlar. Bu araştırmanın sonucunda dünden bugüne ve yarına unutulmayacak hikayeleri olan şehitlerimizi kaleme aldım. Allah "Onlar için ölü demeyiniz" buyuruyor. Bize de "ne mutlu onlara" demek düşüyor.
The book examines Turkey’s new foreign policy operating in the new international system. Especially with the AKP government, Turkish foreign policy principles have been changed and/or modified radically. Therefore, new foreign policy mentality has to be analyzed in detail. The book also focuses on the “strategic depth” paradigm of Prof. Dr. Ahmet Davutoglu.

In order to understand this new mentality in the Turkish foreign policy, historical developments of the Ottoman Empire and the Turkish Republic has been covered. The book mainly f...

Nietzsche, the philosopher seemingly opposed to everyone, has met with remarkably little opposition himself. He remains what he wanted to be— the limit-philosopher of a modernity that never ends. In this provocative, sometimes disturbing book, Bull argues that merely to reject Nietzsche is not to escape his lure. He seduces by appealing to our desire for victory, our creativity, our humanity. Only by ‘reading like a loser’ and failing to live up to his ideals can we move beyond Nietzsche to a still more radical revaluation of all values—a subhumanism that expands the boundaries of society until we are left with less than nothing in common. Anti-Nietzsche is a subtle and subversive engagement with Nietzsche and his twentieth-century interpreters—Heidegger, Vattimo, Nancy, and Agamben. Written with economy and clarity, it shows how a politics of failure might change what it means to be human.
A woman disgraced by a lie. A beast of a man with a cold heart. Their love will transcend continents. Sabine Goddard is a young woman of high standing raised by her Oxford Don uncle. When a lie destroys her reputation, she and her elderly uncle travel to Turkey to escape the gossip. In Constantinople, she meets Edward, Marquess of Foye, a man hurt by the lie that forced her to leave London. Foye fascinates Sabine. He's outsized and refers to himself as a beast, but he doesn't care that she's better educated than many men. His belief in her innocence intrigues her and earns her admiration. Sabine captivates Foye and the far-from-handsome man can scarcely believe she returns his feelings. When Sabine and her uncle fall into the hands of a Turkish Pasha, Foye will do anything to secure the safety of the woman he loves. Indiscreet moves from Regency England to the exotic locales of Turkey and Syria in the midst of the Napoleonic wars. The winner of the 2010 Bookseller's Best Award for Best Short Historical Fiction, it features fast pacing, simmering chemistry, meticulous research, and strong central characters.
This original book brings a fascinating and accessible account of the tumultuous history of sexuality in Europe from the waning of Victorianism to the collapse of Communism and the rise of European Islam. Although the twentieth century is often called 'the century of sex' and seen as an era of increasing liberalization, Dagmar Herzog instead emphasizes the complexities and contradictions in sexual desires and behaviours, the ambivalences surrounding sexual freedom, and the difficulties encountered in securing sexual rights. Incorporating the most recent scholarship on a broad range of conceptual problems and national contexts, the book investigates the shifting fortunes of marriage and prostitution, contraception and abortion, queer and straight existence. It analyzes sexual violence in war and peace, the promotion of sexual satisfaction in fascist and democratic societies, the role of eugenics and disability, the politicization and commercialization of sex, and processes of secularization and religious renewal.
From the Armenian communities of Venice Beach and Paris, to Turkey and Armenia, Deep Mountain is a nuanced and moving exploration of the living history and continuing denial of the Armenian genocide. Encountering writers, thinkers and activists from across the Turkish-Armenian divide, Ece Temelkuran weaves together an absorbing account of the role of national myths and memories, and how they are sustained and distorted over time, both within Turkey and Armenia, as well as among the vast Armenian diasporas of France and America. Deep Mountain is both a brilliant, personal exploration of one of the most enduring and intractable issues of our time, and an illuminating look at the part nationalism plays in the way we see ourselves and others.
Set in modern Europe, Azorno is a kind of logic puzzle or house of mirrors, concerning five women and two men.
Slavoj i ek and Srecko Horvat combine their critical clout to emphasize the dangers of ignoring Europe's growing wealth gap and the parallel rise in right-wing nationalism, which is directly tied to the fallout from the ongoing financial crisis and its prescription of imposed austerity. To general observers, the European Union's economic woes appear to be its greatest problem, but the real peril is an ongoing ideological–political crisis that threatens an era of instability and reactionary brutality. The fall of communism in 1989 seemed to end the leftist program of universal emancipation. However, nearly a quarter of a century later, the European Union has failed to produce any coherent v...
