This interdisciplinary study undertakes a profound exploration of the representation and symbolism surrounding female genitalia, seeking to challenge entrenched patriarchal narratives. By delving into works by Charles Burns, Angela Carter, and Patrick Süskind, the analysis unveils the intricate interplay between female sexuality and the male psyche. Employing the works of feminist theorists such as Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva, Hélène Cixous, Barbara Creed, Riana Eisler, Bracha Ettinger, and Marija Gimbutas, this analysis places the androcentric views reflected in the works of Freud, Lacan and Jung under scrutiny. Departing from conventional approaches, this research celebrates the reproductive features of women, aiming to resurrect a primordial representation rooted in procreational power. Drawing from diverse fields including myth, psychology, archaeology, philosophy, and religion, the study illuminates the layers of unconscious thought embedded in literary works. Ultimately, this study advocates for a non-binary understanding of femininity, positioning the female reproductive body as an enduring gateway between animate and inanimate realms; both alluring and repelling.

Turkey-U.S. relations have a long history of alliance, partnership, and cooperation. The relationship between the two countries have been based on mutual values and shared interests in security and stability in the volatile Middle Eastern region. Recently, both countries have seemingly developed quite divergent views and positions regarding major regional issues such as the military coup in Egypt, the ongoing civil war in Syria, and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Historical Examinations and Current Issues in Turkish-American Relations is a cutting-edge research publication that examines different aspects of Turkish-American relations from a historical point of view and aims to analyze the roots of Turkish-American relations to determine the future occurrence of political, economic, social, identity, and security interactions. Highlighting topics such as democracy, foreign relations, and security, this book is ideal for diplomats, international relations officers, historians, analysts, academicians, policymakers, government officials, researchers, professionals, and students.
This book explains clearly the nature of colon polyps and their relationship with colorectal cancer, which is among the three most common cancers in both men and women. Up-to-date information is provided on anatomy, pathology, types of polyp and their treatment, and the performance of colonoscopy. Particular attention is devoted to the risk factors for development of colorectal cancer, with detailed guidance on its prevention and early diagnosis and treatment. While the book is primarily intended for medical specialists and students, a deliberate and consistent effort has been made to use plain language that will enable other interested persons, including patients, to understand all aspects of the subject.
This edited collection consists of research papers dealing with different interdisciplinary subtopics from the multifaceted interplay between language and the political sphere. Being intertwined and thus inseparable, language and politics have received a lot of scholarly attention in the last 30 years. The papers published in this collection are at the intersection of several disciplines including critical discourse studies, political science, media, political psychology and sociology. They report on cutting-edge empirical research with discursively communicated political ideas and politicians’ utilization of language to persuade the voters to think, behave and vote in a certain way. The papers comprise quantitative, qualitative or mixed methodological approaches (re)addressing multiple social theories and perspectives and challenging existing paradigms. They contribute to burgeoning discussions of theoretical approaches and nuanced case studies in the field placing language as the central medium of politics.
Şehirlerin tarihini araştırmak, aslında bir yönüyle dinlerin de tarihini araştırmaktır. Şehirlerin kuruluş mitoslarına bakıldığında, genellikle merkezde bir mabedin etrafında oluşan bir yerleşim alanı olarak görülmektedir. Antik döneme ait mabetlerin kuruluşunun da benzer bir anlatımı vardır. Bunlar da genellikle bir ritüelin icrasını sağlayacak şekilde bir araya toplayıcı olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Hz. İbrahim, Babil'den yola çıkıp Harran'a oradan güneye, vaat edilmiş topraklara doğru seyahat ederken, konakladığı yerlerde birer 'kuyu' açmıştır. Hz. İbrahim'in gittiği yerlerde kuyu açması ve hemen etrafında bir 'mescid' yani 'ibadet yeri' kurması dikkat çekicidir. İşte, elinizdeki bu çalışma, birbirine sıkı sıkıya bağlı olan şehir- mabed-ibadet üçlüsüne dikkat çekmeyi hedefleyen, bunları çeşitli inançların ve kurumların ortaya çıkışı ve gelişimi üzerinden anlamaya çalışan araştırmalardan oluşmaktadır.
This is a reprint three volume set with a thematic organization of the articles of the four Women in Porphyrin Science special issues published in the Journal of Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines in 2019. All the articles were carefully arranged by the volume editors and Karl Kadish, the Journal of Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines Editor-in-Chief, in order to provide a comprehensive coverage of each topic. Volume 1 covers the biomedical aspects, applications and uses of BODIPY's, porphyrins, phthalocyanines and related derivatives, mainly for photodynamic therapy. Volume 2 covers the synthesis, characteristics and properties of these compounds, while Volume 3 is on topics related to materials, sensors, energy and catalysis. These state-of-the-art articles are contributed by women. This book will strongly contribute to the visibility of women in the field of porphyrin science.
