The Age of Beloveds

The Age of Beloveds offers a rich introduction to early modern Ottoman culture through a study of its beautiful lyric love poetry. At the same time, it suggests provocative cross-cultural parallels in the sociology and spirituality of love in Europe—from Istanbul to London—during the long sixteenth century. Walter G. Andrews and Mehmet Kalpakli provide a generous sampling of translations of Ottoman poems, many of which have never appeared in English, along with informative and inspired close readings. The authors explain that the flourishing of Ottoman power and culture during the “Turkish Renaissance” manifested itself, to some degree, as an “age of beloveds,” in which young men...

Bioarchaeology

The core subject matter of bioarchaeology is the lives of past peoples, interpreted anthropologically. Human remains, contextualized archaeologically and historically, form the unit of study. Integrative and frequently inter-disciplinary, bioarchaeology draws methods and theoretical perspectives from across the sciences and the humanities. Bioarchaeology: The Contextual Study of Human Remains focuses upon the contemporary practice of bioarchaeology in North American contexts, its accomplishments and challenges. Appendixes, a glossary and 150 page bibliography make the volume extremely useful for research and teaching.

Social Violence in the Prehispanic American Southwest

Spontaneous acts of violence born of human emotions like anger or greed are probably universal, but social violence—violence resulting from social relationships within and between groups of people—is a much more complex issue with implications beyond archaeology. Recent research has generated multiple interpretations about the forms, intensity, and underlying causes of social violence in the ancient Southwest. Deborah L. Nichols and Patricia L. Crown have gathered nine contributions from a variety of disciplines to examine social violence in the prehispanic American Southwest. Not only offering specific case studies but also delving into theoretical aspects, this volume looks at archaeol...

This book questions the 'role model' status of the Turkish Republic with respect to the advancement of female agency in a secular context by using the study of women with headscarves as a case in point. Turkey's commitment to modernization depends heavily on secularism which involves, among other things, the westernization of women's appearance.

11 Temmuz 1974 - İstanbul Çoktandır anıldığı lakabıyla babaların babası Mehmet Han Mavi neredeyse 50’lili yaşlarına dayanmış, olgunluğunun zirvesinde bir adamdı. İstediklerini fazlasıyla elde ettiği için olsa gerek, eski heyecan ve coşkusundan pek eser kaldığı da söylenemezdi. Ne eski zamanlarında ki gibi tez canlıydı, ne de gözü pek bir adam artık! O tuttuğunu koparan, arzu ettiğini çok kısa sürede elde eden adam çok uzaklarda kalmıştı sanki. Geçen günler onu fazlasıyla yıpratmıştı. İstanbul’da boğaza nazır villasından uzaklara dalmıştı, çok uzaklara… Geldiği yeri düşünüyor gibiydi. Her şey o kadar kısa sürede olup bitmiş...
