New English Paperback. Large 8vo. (25 x 23 cm). In English and Turkish. 240 p., color and b/w ills. 500 copies were printed. A souvenir from Izmir.= Izmir'den yadigar. The unity of the old urban fabric in the city of Izmir, having thousands of historical and cultural heritage, is rapidly impaired while the "city identity" is changing. Cultural assets such as forts, bastions, walls, public baths, tombs and inscriptions, bridges, aqueducts, houses, mansions, mosques, fountains and cemeteries are all, our shared memories which are worth-appreciating. Basmane and its neighborhood are famous for having intense cultural assets where historical, architectural and archaeological values are treated with great care. The number of the abondoned, moved, burned and ruined characteristics of the city, caused by the misuse or other countable reasons, are increasing day by day. Due to the unauthorized interventions by the non-experts, they are also cut off from the city's historical identity. In my book 'A Souvenir from Izmir' I intended to draw attention of the relevant institutions and organizations to the importance of the cultural assets in this region, to call the authorities for taking the necessary action for the unregistered artifacts and to help researchers in easily finding their places by giving the exact addresses of these artifacts. Because I am conscious of the fact that protecting and preserving the cultural assets is the most meaningful gift that could be left to the next generations. Hereby, I would like to thank Ayse Üngör, director of Ahmet Piristina city archive and Museum of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, and his colleagues Gülsüm Berdan Eren, Buket Ocak, Alev Turhan, Ekrem Tükenmez, Servet Kuru for their efforts in editing, translating and publicating my book; and Asst. Prof. Dr. Oktay Gökdemir; and Bedriye Gülay Besikçi for her illustrations and old black and white photos, and finally Yunus Koç and Atilla Özdemir for photos.

Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. ; Although many commentators have dealt with various aspects of structure in Sophoclean drama, G. M. Kirkwood contends that "Sophocles' mastery of dramatic form is accepted with casual and superficial deference rather than fully and clearly understood." This book shows how Sophocles' method of presenting character, his unique handling of myth, his predilection for presenting ideas by comparison and contrast, and his principles of structure are so closely related that they serve to clarify each other. In an analysis of the form of Sophocles' seven extant plays, Kirkwood demonstrates the existence of several deliberate and distinct types of dramatic construction. Sophocles' use of the chorus, his irony, and certain aspects of diction are considered as a part of his dramatic art and as elements of structure. Kirkwood discusses a number of traditional problems, among them questions of consistency and meaning in passages from Ajax, Antigone, and Electra. He also considers the problem of "diptych" structure, and shows that it is a definite dramatic shape, of primary importance in understanding the three plays in which it appears. ; Cornell Studies in Classical Philology Vol. 31; 328 pages
