This book will completely transform the standard interpretation of the Young Turk Revolution of 1908, a watershed event in the late Ottoman Empire and a key to the emergence of the modern nation-states in the Middle East and Balkans. Preparation for a Revolution is the first book on the Young Turk Revolution to draw on both the extensive memoirs and papers of the Young Turks and on the extensive diplomatic archives around the world. The author has plumbed not only the Ottoman Archives but collected documents from archives in Bonn, Berlin, Jerusalem, London, Paris, Rome, Athens, Sofia, Tirana, Bern, Geneva, Sarajevo, Cairo, Stockholm, and Tokyo. Breaking new ground, Hanioglu describes in detail how practical considerations led the Young Turks to sacrifice or alter many of their goals for social transformation. He tells a story rich in character and plot, and reveals the many factions and competing intellectual trends that marked this tumultuous period at the end of the Ottoman Empire. Preparation for a Revolution will prove indispensable to anyone working on the political, intellectual, and social history of the Ottoman Empire and of the states that were established on its ruins.

In the underdeveloped and multi-ethnic Ottoman Empire, the Ottoman-Turkish intelligentsia could not produce adequate propaganda to suppor...

Birinci Dünya Savaşı, ülkemizde yeterince araştırılmamış bir konudur. Bu savaş ile edebiyat ve propaganda arasındaki ilişki ise neredeyse bütünüyle ihmal edilmiştir. Erol Köroğlu’nun kitabı işte bu boşluğu dolduruyor. Propaganda alanındaki başarının ülkelerin gelişmişliğine göre değiştiğine işaret eden yazar, Osmanlı Devleti’nin bu yöndeki çabalarını ve başarısızlığını derinlemesine araştırıyor. Yazara göre, ulus-devlet oluşumu açısından bütün dost ve düşmanlarının gerisinde kalan, propaganda için gerekli maddî altyapıdan yoksun olan Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, edebiyat ve kültürünü seferber etmekte çok zorlanmıştı. Os...
