Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Modern cloth bdg. Cr. 8vo. 19 x 13 cm). In Ottoman script. 212 p. TBTK 9847. Ahmed Cevad Emre was a famous Turkish linguist and publicist. He had been active in the Young Turkish movement and spent some time as an exile in Paris. He was born in Crete. While he was a student at Military Academy in 1897, he was arrested on the grounds that he was a pro-Constitutional Monarchy and exiled to Fizan. He fled from Tripoli to Europe in 1905 and participated in the political activities of the Young Turks. Between 1915-1919, he first worked as the assistant of F. Giese in Darülfünun and then gave language lessons as an assistant teacher. He went to the Soviet Union during the Armistice Period, worked with Mustafa Suphi there. After the Republic, he participated in language and letter revolution studies and took part in the Alphabet Commission. In 1910, he wrote Lisan-i Osmanî Sarf and Nahiv, who initiated his name to be called as "Gramerci Cevat" [i.e. Cevat the Gramarrian]. Another genre that should be counted among Ahmet Cevat's literary activities are the translations of Odysseia, Iliada, Pinguins Island and Agememnon.

Edgewear to corners and spine ends. Spine a bit sunned. ; The purpose of this study is to provide a description of the Greek particle per as it occurs in the text of Homer.

First, the discussion of per as a scalar article contributes to the discussion of scalar phenomena in general. Second, as a description of a linguistic feature in the Iliad and Odyssey, metrical texts of oral-formulaic origin, this study is also an essay in the relation between linguistics on the one hand and formulas and metre on the other. ; 318 pages

Disbound. XLib. (Boston Athenaeum - Withdrawn). 8vo. 220 mm. Nicolas Gouin Dufief (1776?-1834) was a native of Nantes. In 1792 he followed the Royalist sentiments of his parents, and joined the Royal Naval Corps. In the same year he sought refuge in England, but soon afterwards he sailed for the West Indies, and was attracted thence to Philadelphia, which he reached in July 1793. During his sojourn in America, he became acquainted with Dr. Joseph Priestley, Thomas Jefferson, and other eminent men. In Philadelphia he published an essay on The Philosophy of Language, in which he first explained to the world how he was led to make those discoveries "from which my system of universal and economical instruction derives such peculiar and manifold advantages". For nearly twenty-five years he taught French with success in America and in England. With this set I offer Vol. I of the 1810 Philadelphia Edition for FREE. ** PRICE JUST REDUCED! FRENG 4
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English, Turkish, and Kazakh. 415 p., color and b/w ills., 1 map. Based on proceedings of the "International Symposium on Altai Communities : Migrations and Emergence of Nations" held in Istanbul on 18-19 July 2011. Introduction. Altay communities: Migrations and emergence of nations. Over the course of history, the Altay region has been known as a place where many nomadic tribes and peoples lived, as a kind of simmering pot where common values of civilization, to include professions and crafts, were formed and which were then spread from here by means of various clans and branches to other geographic areas. In this context, the Altay Communities book, which is the product of the symposium supported by ISTESOB, contains 45 scholarly articles in Turkish, English, Russian, Kyrgyz and Kazakh related to the goods and items produced as values of civilization by the peoples who emerged from Altay, their migrations and distribution to various lands and their position as a nation among the others in the world's geography.
