Book The Limits of Westernization

Download or read book The Limits of Westernization written by Perin E. Gürel and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a 2001 poll, Turks ranked the United States highest when asked: "Which country is Turkey's best friend in international relations?" When the pollsters reversed the question—"Which country is Turkey's number one enemy in international relations?"—the United States came in second. How did Turkey's citizens come to hold such opposing views simultaneously? In The Limits of Westernization, Perin E. Gürel explains this unique split and its echoes in contemporary U.S.-Turkey relations. Using Turkish and English sources, Gürel maps the reaction of Turks to the rise of the United States as a world-ordering power in the twentieth century. As Turkey transitioned from an empire to a nation-state, the country's ruling elite projected "westernization" as a necessary and desirable force but also feared its cultural damage. Turkish stock figures and figures of speech represented America both as a good model for selective westernization and as a dangerous source of degeneration. At the same time, U.S. policy makers imagined Turkey from within their own civilization templates, first as the main figure of Oriental barbarism (i.e., "the terrible Turk"), then, during the Cold War, as good pupils of modernization theory. As the Cold War transitioned to the War on Terror, Turks rebelled against the new U.S.-made trope of the "moderate Muslim." Local artifacts of westernization—folk culture crossed with American cultural exports—and alternate projections of modernity became tinder for both Turkish anti-Americanism and resistance to state-led modernization projects. The Limits of Westernization analyzes the complex local uses of "the West" to explain how the United States could become both the best and the worst in the Turkish political imagination. Gürel traces how ideas about westernization and America have influenced national history writing and policy making, as well as everyday affects and identities. Foregrounding shifting tropes about and from Turkey—a regional power that continues to dominate American visions for the "modernization" of the Middle East—Gürel also illuminates the transnational development of powerful political tropes, from "the Terrible Turk" to "the Islamic Terrorist."

Download or read book Facts and Fantasies written by D. Fatma Türe and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-18 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of women and their rights was a prominent and ongoing topic of debate in the popular press of Turkey in the 1920s. This work presents an insightful analysis of those debates and follows its traces in obscene literature of the period, as a marginal, but influential branch of popular literature. Popular literature of the time carefully scrutinizes urban Istanbul women in particular, from their biological responsibilities to their behavior in the public arena, down to their clothes and their relations with the opposite sex. It was believed that it was urban women above all who threatened the contemporary social order. Bearing in mind that the traditional faith-based, patriarchal Ottoman social system began to disintegrate after the First World War, and was increasingly replaced by a nationalist and modern, but still patriarchal, structure, this book shows that the popular press sought to integrate women as individuals into the new social structure and define them according to common social perceptions. Women who defied society’s definition of the ideal woman were often depicted as heroines in popular obscene stories. While these stories offered a social fantasy in which society’s concerns and paranoia about women turned into reality, from another perspective, they also reflected the ongoing social disintegration after years of secrecy and seclusion, and the excitement and awkwardness felt both by men and women as a result of coexisting in the same environment.

This book was released on with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elmalılı M. Hamdi Yazır, Hicri 1294 Miladi 1877 yılında Antalya'nın Elmalılı kazasında doğdu. Babası Numan Efendi, aslen Burdur'un Gölhisar kazası Yazır köyü halkındandır. Numan Efendi, küçük yaşta Yazır köyünden çıkıp Elmalı'ya gelmiş, orada okumuş ve "Şer'iye Mahkemesi" başkâtibi olmuştur. Hamdi Efendi'nin annesi, Elmalı âlimlerinden Mehmet Efendi'nin kızı Fatma Hanım'dır. İlkokulu ve bugünkü ortaokula denk sayılan Rüşdiye'yi Elmalı'da bitiren Hamdi Efendi, 1892 yılında, dayısı hoca Mustafa Sarılar ile birlikte İstanbul'a gelmiş ve devrinin âlimlerinden Kayserili Mahmud Hamdi Efendi'den ders almıştır. İstanbul'daki diğer tanınmış hocaların da derslerine devam ettikten sonra, 1906 yılında "Bayezit dersiâmı" olarak icâzet almıştır. Aynı yıl yapılan seçimlerde Antalya Mebusu olmuş ve II. Meşrutiyet'in bu ilk meclisinde, özellikle 1876 "Kanun-i Esâsi"sinin değiştirilmesinde önemli rol oynamıştır. 1909 yılında Mülkiye Mektebi'nde Ahkâm-ı Evkâf ve Arâzî dersleri okutmuş ve yine aynı yıllarda Mekteb-i Kuzâtta "Fıkıh" dersleri vermiştir. Daha sonra Darü'l-Hikmeti'l-İslâmiye (Şeyhü'l-İslâmlığa bağlı Yüksek Müşavere Heyeti) üyeliğine ve bir müddet sonra da başkanlığına tayin edilmiştir. I. Dünya Savaşı'ndan sonra Evkaf Nazırlığı'nda bulunmuş ve bu sırada Âyan Meclisi üyesi olmuştur. Cumhuriyetin ilânı sırasında Mütehassısîn medresesinde mantık müderrisi idi. Medreseler kaldırılınca evinde inzivaya çekilmiş, ilmî tetkik ve araştırmalarına devam etmiştir. Yirmi yıl kadar devam eden bu uzlet (yalnızlık) devresi, "Hak Dini Kur'an Dili" adındaki Türkçe tefsiri hazırlamasına imkân vermiştir. Tefsire başlamadan önce Mısırlı Prens Abbas Halim Paşa'nın teşviki ile "Büyük İslâm Hukuku Kâmusu" ile meşgul bulunuyordu. Bu eserle birkaç yıl meşgul olduktan sonra yarım bırakmış ve tefsiri yazmaya başlamıştır. Âyan üyeliğinin son yıllarında Fransızca'dan tercümeye başladığı bir felsefe tarihi kitabını tamamlayarak ilave ettiği önemli bir dibace (önsöz) ve diğer haşiyelerle birlikte "Metalib ve Mezahib" adıyla bastırmıştır. Hamdi Efendi, ayrıca devrinin güzel sanatlarından olan hat ve mûsikî ile de ilgilenmiştir. Özellikle "Nesih" ve "Sülüs" yazılarda iyi bir hattat idi. Aynı zamanda hâfız olduğu için alaturka mûsikînin çeşitli makamlarıyla ciddi bir şekilde meşgul olmuştur. Hamdi Efendi, 27 Mayıs 1942'de İstanbul Erenköy'de vefat etmiştir.

Book Women Mobilizing Memory

Download or read book Women Mobilizing Memory written by Ayşe Gül Altınay and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women Mobilizing Memory, a transnational exploration of the intersection of feminism, history, and memory, shows how the recollection of violent histories can generate possibilities for progressive futures. Questioning the politics of memory-making in relation to experiences of vulnerability and violence, this wide-ranging collection asks: How can memories of violence and its afterlives be mobilized for change? What strategies can disrupt and counter public forgetting? What role do the arts play in addressing the erasure of past violence from current memory and in creating new visions for future generations? Women Mobilizing Memory emerges from a multiyear feminist collaboration bringing together an interdisciplinary group of scholars, artists, and activists from Chile, Turkey, and the United States. The essays in this book assemble and discuss a deep archive of works that activate memory across a variety of protest cultures, ranging from seemingly minor acts of defiance to broader resistance movements. The memory practices it highlights constitute acts of repair that demand justice but do not aim at restitution. They invite the creation of alternative histories that can reconfigure painful pasts and presents. Giving voice to silenced memories and reclaiming collective memories that have been misrepresented in official narratives, Women Mobilizing Memory offers an alternative to more monumental commemorative practices. It models a new direction for memory studies and testifies to a continuing hope for an alternative future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the middle of the twentieth century, Turkish playwriting has been notable for its verve and versatility. This two-volume anthology is the first major collection of plays in English of modern Turkish drama, a selection dealing with ancient Anatolian mythology, Ottoman history, contemporary social issues and family dramas, ribald comedy from Turkey’s cities and rural areas. It also includes several plays set outside Turkey. The two volumes together will feature seventeen plays by major playwrights published or produced from the late 1940s to the present day, with volume 1,“Ibrahim the Mad” and Other Plays, encompassing plays from the 1940s through the 1960s, and volume 2, "I, Anatolia" and Other Plays, including plays from the 1970s through the 1990s.

For producers, directors, and actors they provide a wealth of fresh, new material, with characters ranging from Ottoman sultans to a Soviet cosmonaut, from the Byzantine Empress Theodora to a fisherman's wife, from residents of an Istanbul neighborhood to King Midas, from Montezuma to a Turkish cabinet minister.
