New English Original bdg. HC. 4to. (32 x 21 cm). In English and Turkish. 243 p., color and b/w ills. Robertson: Photographer and engraver in the Ottoman capital. Ömer M. Koç Collection.= Osmanli Baskentinde fotografçi ve hakkak. Ömer M. Koç Koleksiyonu. Robertson, one of the most notable names of nineteenth-century photography, received his vocational training in the London Royal Mint and remained the chief engraver of the Ottoman Imperial Mint for forty years, serving four successive sultans including Sultan Abdülmecid and Sultan Abdülaziz. He prepared designs, molds and models for gold and silver coins and in the 1850s also started to develop an interest in photography. James Robertson is the first photographer working in Istanbul known to have taken the first 360° panoramic photographs of the city. He gained much renown with his Istanbul photographs, as well as with the photo series he produced of Athens in 1854, of the Crimean War between 1854 and 1855, and of Jerusalem and Cairo, which he prepared in 1857 and which were displayed in exhibitions in London and Paris. 'Robertson, Photographer and Engraver in the Ottoman Capital' features not only his outstanding works for the Imperial Mint, but also reveals his mastery and manifold talents as an artist capable of creating stunning photographs and watercolor paintings of his adopted city's colorful life, of its unique scenery, and its matchless monuments and art objects. The exhibition also includes numerous photos from Athens, the Crimea, Jerusalem and Cairo. An accompanying exhibition catalogue, prepared by Bahattin Öztuncay and designed by Yesim Demir, presents Robertson's biography alongside his works.

New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). 334 p. In English. This is a book Istanbul and about those who conducted political and espionage missions there during the Second World War. It is a work of nonfiction based on extensive archival research and interviews. Each event and every conversation is reconstructed as accurately as possible. Whenever I interviewed those involved, four decades after the events herein described, there always came a moment when these Americans, Austrians, Czechs, Germans, Hungarians, Israelis, Russians, and Turks would light up in recalling those remarkable days that had forever marked their Jives. To some, these were moments of great achievement and romance; to others, searing tragedy. For all of them, it was an era of great perils and passionate idealism when they hoped their actions would shape a new world.

New New English Original binding with original dust wrapper. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 24 cm). In French. Ills. 288 p. "L'Histoire" dit-on "est une répétition des faits." Une autre définition qualifie I'Historie de chose "Oubliée dans un coin, parce que ne servant á rien. "Ceux qui vont s'aventurer à entreprendre, avec curiosité, la lecture de ce qui suit, l'Historie des Juifs, pourraient-ils finir, par étre, d'une suite ininterrompue de dates, un chevauchement de faits et d'événements, souvent d'une similitude, et d'une ressemblance, ouvant étre fatigante ou exaspérante, par moment? Pourraient-ils "tomber" dans la généralisation des définitions ci-dessus? J'en doute fort, vu l'importance du sujet. Conscient de cette réaction involontaire de la part du lecteur, j'ai pensé que changer la form esans en altérer le fond, serait un bon moyen d'éviter une surprise, une déception, un préjugé décourageant. Aussi ai-je cherché le moyen d'agrémenter ce sujet aride en soi-méme en yajoutant un peu de fantaisie, sans toutefois risquer d'en compromettre sa teneur historique. Je suis sûr que le lecteur trouvera dans le style de "Annuaire", calqué sur le style journalistique, prétant à ces événements appartenant à un passé lointain, un certain air d'actualité, qui ne l'empêchera pas d'accepter la form esans repousser et douter du fond. "Le Bureau des Taxes et Revenus", "Le Bureau des Statistiques" et "Le Bureau de Presse de la Cour" sont les noms de départements inventés de toutes piéces qui reviennent souvent au cours des évènements présentés sous formes de "nouvelles" dans l'Annuaire. Les données, chiffers, et estimations et le déroulment historique des faits figurant dans ces "nouvelles" ont pour objectif de donner une idée aussi précise que possible, de la contribution des communtés Juives, sous forme de: dîmes, taxes directes ou indirectes, dons, contributions de guerre, taxes spéciales etc; et les détails spécifiques à propos de la vie de nos ancétres parmi les peuples de formation et de cultures diverses cherchant aussi leur voie dans un monde en éternel mouvement. Note: Le lecteur ne doit pas douter de la valeur historique des faits, et des nouvelles suivies d'annotations "entre tirés" ou sous "Not edu Rédacteur", Ndlr. Comme émanant du "Correspondant" ou de "l'Envoyé Spécial" ou de la "Rédaction" ou de "lEditeur" qui transmettent une réflexion de l'auteur. A noter que les communications émanant de ces services comme articles, font intégralement partie des "nouvelles" proprement dites. "L'Annuaire", done aut lecteur, par son classement chronologique et toponymique, la possibilité d'accéder au déroulement des évènements dans leurs séquences historiques, et de déterminer aiséement le nombre de communautés dans les différentes villes, touchées par un méme fait. ll fait défiler de maniére schématique et dépouillée, cette longue historie aux méandres multiples, couvrant des siécles de présence Juive dans un monde hétéroclite, objet d'invasions, d'incursions, qui a vu défiler tour à tour la Gréce, Rome et les Arabes. Par sa présentation, "l'Annuaire" offre, aut lecteur attentif une documentation instructive émaillée par moments des réflexions qui reflétent ce que lui-méme ressent peut-étre à la lecture des faits. Parmi tous ces conquérants, organisés en Nations avec leurs Etendards "leurs Soldats" leurs Chefs Militaires "leurs Rois, brandissant un livre, la Bible, et une philosophie -le Monothéisme- une poignée d'individus, les Juifs" lls apparaisent louvoyant, progressant ou régressant, brimés, oppressés ou élevés et acclamés par ces peuples adeptes de cultures et de religions différentes. Deux religions, toutes deux issues de la religion "Monothéiste Méré" dont seul l'asservissement de ses adeptes pourrait assurer, justifier, et légitimer la prépondérance tant convoitée, par les membres des deux "Religions Filles", qui se combattent, d'ailleurs entre elles. Cette guerre sourde et continue menée à l'échelle nationale, de pair avec la lutte journalière

The Sephardic Onomasticon is an etymological research on Sephardic family names of the Jews living in Turkey. The author's point of departure for trying to establish the etymologies is: he proceeds from the premise that, after biblical times, throughout the the generations, Jews who chose surnames, tended to try and preserve something to remind themselves of the names they had used before, either in their sound or their meaning.
