Warm Winter
This classic holiday book about a mouse and his friends makes a perfect gift for boys and girls 3 - 5 years old. One cold winter morning Little Mouse ventures out in search of enough firewood to heat his nest. But when he tries to drag his pile home, he realizes everything he’s gathered is much too heavy for him. Maybe his friends can help out, but they’d better hurry, because there’s a blizzard on the way. If they can find a way to work together and keep each other safe, maybe they can all have the warm winter they've been hoping for. This beautifully illustrated picture book shows the power of friendship, persistence–and a little luck–to make our dreams come true. This is a winter story that will warm your heart.
Turkish Language, Literature, and History
The twenty two essays collected in Turkish Language, Literature and History offer insights into Turkish culture in the widest sense. Written by leaders in their fields from North America, Europe and Turkey, these essays cover a broad range of topics, focusing on various aspects of Turkish language, literature and history between the eighth century and the present. The chapters move between ancient and contemporary literature, exploring Sultan Selim’s interest in dream interpretation, translating newly uncovered poetry and exploring the works of Orhan Pamuk. Linguistic complexities of the Turkish language and dialects are analysed, while new translations of 16th century decrees offer insigh...

Kadıköy'ün Kitabı
“Kaybolan Selamiçeşme’de unutulmaz simalar vardı ki, bunlardan biri Şişman Yanko idi. Asıl adı Yanko Ananyadis’ti. Tuhafiye işi ile uğraşırdı. Her türlü yünlü, peştamal, Amerikan bezi, ama ille de Selanik işi yünlü fanilalar satardı. Evinin bahçesinde o da üzümler yetiştirir, Rumların pek çoğu gibi, bunları satmaz, şarap yapardı. 1930’da Yanko Yunanistan’ın yolunu tuttu. Köşkün yeni yaşamı, Tevfik Sabuncu Bey ailesine açılıyordu. Ne var ki, bu ailenin yaşantısı Yanko’nunki kadar keyifle örülü olamadı. Tevfik Bey’in oğlu Orhan gırtlak tüberkülozundan dayanılmaz acılar çekiyordu ve hemen hemen hiçbir şeyi yiyemiyordu. Evin t...
Istanbul
Istanbul explores how to live with difference through the prism of an age-old, cutting-edge city whose people have long confronted the challenge of sharing space with the Other. Located at the intersection of trade networks connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa, Istanbul is western and eastern, northern and southern, religious and secular. Heir of ancient empires, Istanbul is the premier city of a proud nation-state even as it has become a global city of multinational corporations, NGOs, and capital flows. Rather than exploring Istanbul as one place at one time, the contributors to this volume focus on the city’s experience of migration and globalization over the last two centuries. Asking what Istanbul teaches us about living with people whose hopes jostle with one’s own, contributors explore the rise, collapse, and fragile rebirth of cosmopolitan conviviality in a once and future world city. The result is a cogent, interdisciplinary exchange about an urban space that is microcosmic of dilemmas of diversity across time and space.
