Uncoupling Language and Religion
This book is an invitation to rethink our understanding of Turkish literature as a tale of two “others.” The first part of the book examines the contributions of non-Muslim authors, the “others” of modern Turkey, to the development of Turkish literature during the late Ottoman and early republican period, focusing on the works of largely forgotten authors. The second part discusses Turkey as the “other” of the West and the way authors writing in Turkish challenged orientalist representations. Thus this book prepares the ground for a history of literature which uncouples language and religion and recreates the spaces of dialogue and exchange that have existed in late Ottoman Turkey between members of various ethno-religious communities.
RESURRECTION BIRD
PER WORD Ancestors said, “Beginning is half done.” he said. We started writing this book in 2017. It took four years to complete the other half. Because the process being explained was difficult. Of course, it would not be easy to turn it into a book. Peyami Safa, “Easy life is short.” he said. It doesn't matter if it's late or difficult, as long as it lasts a long time. The people of Kuşulu had experienced and realized a first in the history of Turkish and world democracy. The fight was tough but ended in victory. The value of a victory is directly proportional to its difficulty. It was a difficult and necessary task to write down this victory so that it would survive for many more...
Grammatology and Literary Modernity in Turkey
The 1928 Turkish alphabet reform replacing the Perso-Arabic script with the Latin phonetic alphabet is an emblem of Turkish modernization. Grammatology and Literary Modernity in Turkey traces the history of Turkish alphabet and language reform from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century, examining its effects on modern Turkish literature. In readings of the novels, essays, and poetry of Ahmed Midhat, Recaizade Mahmud Ekrem, Omer Seyfeddin, Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar, Peyami Safa, and Nazim Hikmet, Nergis Erturk argues that modern Turkish literature is profoundly self-conscious of dramatic change in its own historical conditions of possibility. Where literary historiography has sometimes idealized the Turkish language reforms as the culmination of a successful project of Westernizing modernization, Erturk suggests a different critical narrative: one of the consolidation of control over communication, forging a unitary nation and language from a pluralistic and multilingual society.
The Formation of Turkish Republicanism
Turkish republicanism is commonly thought to have originated with Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and the founding of modern Turkey in 1923, and understood exclusively in terms of Kemalist ideals, characterized by the principles of secularism, nationalism, statism, and populism. Banu Turnaoğlu challenges this view, showing how Turkish republicanism represents the outcome of centuries of intellectual dispute in Turkey over Islamic and liberal conceptions of republicanism, culminating in the victory of Kemalism in the republic's formative period. Drawing on a wealth of rare archival material, Turnaoğlu presents the first complete history of republican thinking in Turkey from the birth of the Ottoman ...
Unsettling Colonial Modernity in Islamicate Contexts
By focusing on colonial histories and legacies, this edited volume breaks new ground in studying modernity in Islamicate contexts. From a range of disciplinary perspectives, the authors probe ‘colonial modernity’ as a condition whose introduction into Islamicate contexts was facilitated historically by European encroachment into South Asia, the Middle East, and Northern Africa. They also analyze the various modes through which, in Europe itself, and in North America by extension, people from Islamicate contexts have been, and continue to be, otherized in the constitution and advancement of the project of modernity. The book further brings to light a multiplicity of social, political, cultural, and aesthetic modes of resistance aimed at subverting and unsettling colonial modernity in both Muslim-majority and diasporic contexts.
The Cambridge History of Nationhood and Nationalism: Volume 2, Nationalism's Fields of Interaction
This major new reference work with contributions from an international team of scholars provides a comprehensive account of ideas and practices of nationhood and nationalism from antiquity to the present. It considers both continuities and discontinuities, engaging critically and analytically with the scholarly literature in the field. In volume II, leading scholars in their fields explore the dynamics of nationhood and nationalism's interactions with a wide variety of cultural practices and social institutions – in addition to the phenomenon's crucial political dimensions. The relationships between imperialism and nationhood/nationalism and between major world religions and ethno-national identities are among the key themes explained and explored. The wide range of case studies from around the world brings a truly global, comparative perspective to a field whose study was long constrained by Eurocentric assumptions.

Democracy Denied, 1905-1915
Kurzman proposes that the collective agent most directly responsible for democratization was the emerging class of modern intellectuals, a group that had gained a global identity and a near-messianic sense of mission following the Dreyfus Affair of 1898. Each chapter of this book focuses on a single angle of this story, covering all six cases by examining newspaper accounts, memoirs, and government reports.
Millilik ve Evrensellik Arasında Şiir (Karabatak #24)
Karabatak Gücünü Ay Yıldızdan Alır Milli olunmadan evrensel olunamayacağına dair inancımız, hiçbir zaman değişmedi. Çünkü her sanatın ve sanatçının er meydanı, kendi topraklarıdır. İlk sınavını orada vermeli ve sesinin ne kadar gür ve vicdanlı çıktığını orada göstermelidir. Ancak bunu başardığında, yeryüzü bütün sınırlarını kaldırır da sadece ona dünyanın bütün topraklarını tek bir parça olarak gösterir. Artık yeryüzünün tamamıdır onun vatanı. Milli şuura her zamankinden çok ihtiyaç duyduğumuz bugünlerde sanatın vazifesini yapmasını istedik ve dosya konumuzu “Millilik ve Evrensellik Arasında Şiir” olarak belirledi...
