Dalmatia and the Mediterranean
Using the Braudelian concept of the Mediterranean this volume focuses on the condition of “coastal exchanges” involving the Dalmatian littoral and its Adriatic and more distant maritime network. Spalato and Ragusa intersect with Constantinople, Cairo and Spanish Naples just as Sinan, Palladio and Robert Adam cross paths in this liquid expanse. Concentrating on materiality and on the arts, architecture in particular, the authors identify portability and hybridity as characteristic of these exchanges, and tease out expected and unexpected serendipitous moments when they occurred. Focusing on translation and its instruments these essays expand the traditional concept of influence by thrusti...
Hazlar ve Günler
Marcel Proust’un 20’li yaşlarında kaleme aldığı, kısa anlatılardan ve şiirlerden oluşan bu eser, bir bakıma Kayıp Zamanın İzinde’nin habercisidir. Honoré’nin yakışıklı sofra arkadaşı gençliğin ihtiyatsızlığıyla Heredia’nın eserlerinde genelde söylendiğinden daha fazla düşünce bulunabileceğini ima etmeye kalkışınca, zihinsel alışkanlıkları sarsılan konuklar surat astılar. Ama Mme Fremer derhal, “Aksine, onlar takdire şayan oymalı akikler, görkemli mineler, kusursuz kuyumculuk örnekleri” diye haykırınca bütün çehrelerde yeniden keyifli ve doyumlu ifadeler belirdi. Anarşistlere ilişkin tartışma daha vahimdi. Ama Mme Fremer bir doğa yasasının kaçınılmazlığı karşısında boyun eğercesine, teslimiyetle, “Bütün bunların ne yararı var? Zenginler ve yoksullar daima var olacak” dedi yavaşça. Ve en yoksulu en azından yüz bin frank ranta sahip olan bütün davetliler bu gerçekle yüz yüze gelince vicdan azaplarından kurtulup yürekten bir neşeyle son şampanya kadehlerini de devirdiler…
Alevi Identity
In the rising momentum for new and reformulated cultural identities, the Turkish Alevi have also emerged on the scene, demanding due recognition. In this process a number of dramatic events have served as important milestones: the clashes between Sunni and Alevi in Kahramanmaras in 1979 and Corum in 1980, the incendiarism in Sivas in 1992, and the riots in Istanbul (Gaziosmanpasa) in 1995. Less evocative, but in the long run more significant, has been the rising interest in Alevi folklore and religious practices. Questions have also arisen as to what this branch of Islamic heterodoxy represents in terms of old and new identities. In this book, these questions are addressed by some of the most prominent scholars in the field.
