New English Original bdg. HC. Oblong 4to. (24 x 31 cm). In English and Turkish. 223, [9] p., color and b/w ills. The book includes the research deducted by Mr. Alper, who had an important archive about the historical building and site. The first confrontation with the building goes back to 1991. The relationship which Mehmet Alper and his team established and their ongoing commitment of responsibility and interest with the structure they have monitored over the years have continued with certain intervals until the present day. The main objective of this study is to share archives, documents, and information they have compiled over the years with the pertinent parties in order to speed up the conservation process. An attempt to access all types of documents was made while meticulously researching its architectural history, whereas the compiled data was evaluated in the historical process flow. This research was initiated with written/printed / online scanning of local and foreign sources that produced works pertaining to the orphanage. The architect and his team collaborated with many academicians and specialists who had written valuable articles and papers such as Akillas Millas, Berrin Alper, Çelik Gülersoy, Hakki Göktürk, Oguz Ceylan, etc and the General Manager of the Ottoman Public Debt Administration, Edgar Vincent in order to access Ottoman documents and the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality's Ataturk Library to acquire maps and postcards of the Prinkipo Orphanage. Therefore, this research is an important effort to save the Orphanage's cultural heritage and to convey it to the future with the proper work.

Fine Greek, Modern (post 1453) First appearance of Orhan Veli's poems in the Greek language in a book form. This booklet is a supplement to 'Pirsos' periodical in Greek published in Istanbul by the Greeks of Istanbul. Pyrsos, the last literary magazine of the Greek Community in Istanbul (Romans or Rhomaioi), ceased its publishing activity with the gradual decline in the Greek population after the 6-7 September riots. Finally, in 1962, the magazine bade farewell to its readers with its August-September issue number 93 and went down in history as one of the most remarkable magazines in Istanbul. As the longest-running magazine, Pyrsos had managed to accomplish a most remarkable work. Its publication contributed to the continuation of the Greek literary tradition and it became the voice of an anxious but also ambitious new generation. Apart from showcasing Greek literature, the magazine also embraced Turkish literature, translating countless works by contemporary Turkish writers, who were in fact from among close friends and the intellectual circle of Panagiotis Abatzis (1922-2015). The magazine also presented a smaller number of several works by Armenian authors, all of which were translated from their respective languages, mainly from Turkish into Greek. Even though the journals of Rums of Istanbul which are dedicated to their literature were shortly-lived, they consistently exist. One of these journals is Pirsos. One of the Rums of Istanbul Panayot Abaci who started to publish the journal in 1954, fills the journal with prototype and modern articles for eight years. The writers of the journal are consist of Rums of Istanbul and Turkish authors of the time. Orhan Veli Kanik was a pioneer Turkish poet who is one of the founders of the Garip Movement together with Oktay Rifat Horozcu and Melih Cevdet Anday, aiming to fundamentally transform traditional form in Turkish poetry, he introduced colloquialisms into the poetic language.

Very light bumping to bottom corners of book and top of spine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; 276 pages; The first three chapters of this book elucidate the scholastic goals of both classical cultures during the Roman Imperial period. Apuleius' works share the stage in these chapters with representatives of the second-century Greek cultural paradigm. They define patterns of discourse and fit selected examples of analogous Apuleian strategies into the broader cultural framework. Subsequent chapters focus closely on the complete Apuleian corpus under the general headings of Apuleius in the roles of orator, philosopher and novelist. Two of Apuleius' philosophical works and his novel the Golden Ass provide an unparalleled opportunity to analyze the methods of translation and adaptation employed by the major Latin writer of the second half of the second century.
