New English Paperback. Pbo. Mint. Small 4to. In English. 116 p., color ills. "An Innocent City is an exhibition of stories and illustrations of the everyday objects of Istanbul. The objects presented here were inspired by objects on display in the cases of the Museum of Innocence in Çukurcuma. Graduate students from Koç University chose objects from the Museum and searched the streets of Istanbul to find the lives of these objects in the city today. A series of stories, illustrations, and everyday objects on loan from local community members, An Innocent City is a platform for considering the different meanings and shared significance of the everyday objects in our lives. It is our hope that this exhibition will prompt future responses from others wishing to collect and share their stories. We welcome you to enjoy the exhibition, read the strories, and if you would like, share a story of your own.".
New English Original bdg. HC. Roy. 8vo. (24 x17 cm). In English. [xLiv], 223 p., ills., in English; [+] 144 p. facsimile of the BEO 350 Protocol Register in Ottoman script. The BEO 350 protocol register edited here is part of the Sublime Porte Archives series of the Prime Ministry Ottoman State Archives in Istanbul. The register covers a number of ceremonies held on various occasions from 1736 to 1808 and primarily concerned with accession ceremonies, funerals and, most of all, the reception of envoys. This edition of the BEO 350 is accompanied by an introduction, a synoptic list of ceremonies, appendices, and indexes. The introduction examines various aspects of Ottoman ceremonies, particularly those of a diplomatic nature, and includes a section on the gifts and offerings exchanged by the Ottoman administration and foreign envoys. As briefly discussed in the introduction, ceremonies contribute, albeit modestly, to the validation of a regime's political legitimacy and to its smooth functioning. When trying to determine the relationship between ceremonial rites and political power, the lofty symbolism of ceremonies needs to be interpreted with great care. Thus, detailed descriptions such as those found in protocol registers are extremely valuable, indeed indispensable, for a solid interpretation.

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

New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 13,5 cm). In English. 418 p. The official line that successive Turkish regimes have frequently repeated and which has firmly established itself in both Turkish and foreign public opinion is that the Republic of Turkey is one of those rare countries in which antisemitism has never taken root, and in which Jews have thus lived for centuries within a tolerant atmosphere of peace and tranquility, but it simply isn't true. Along with antisemitism are the conspiracy theories in which the "Jew" or the "Zionist" feature as the main actors that are widely seen throughout Turkish society. In fact, this state of affairs is not only pervasive but has even become "normal" to the point of banality, so much so that it tends to draw no reaction from either the country's intellectuals or politicians. This book contains a collection of author's published articles on the subject-a subject that has received no serious treatment in Turkey, and as such attempts to fill the gaping hole in our knowledge of this widespread yet rarely discussed phenomenon and, as such, stands as an indispensible source for those interested in Turkey and antisemitism.
New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 156 p. Apologies for the past: Two cases from Turkey. This book explores the issue of collective apology, and its potential to function as a symbolic form of restitution that publicly addresses and acknowledges the grievances faced by victimized groups. It explores two cases of collective apology in Turkey, "I Apologize" online signature campaign in 2008, and an apology speech carried out by a state official on the Dersim massacre in 2011. Both events raised significant public debate in Turkish society. Taking these two recent cases of collective apology and looking at them through the lens of existing scholarship on collective apology, this thesis explores the answers to a set of questions; on the format, wording and enactment of the apologies and their dealing with the issues of responsibility, and reconciliation.

New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (28 x 21 cm). In English. 177, [3] p., b/w photos, 2 maps. Ara Güler's Istanbul. Foreword by Orhan Pamuk. Ara Güler's Istanbul is a unique record of daily life in the cultural capital of Turkey from the 1940s to the 1980s, captured by the award-winning photographer and accompanied by an evocative foreword by Orhan Pamuk, the first Turkish recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature. As the crossroads between Europe and Asia, Istanbul has lived through several empires and has a character that is as many layered as its history something that Güler's photographs convey with great sensitivity. In these remarkable black-and-white images, the city's melancholy aesthetic oscillates between tradition and modernity. Both writer and photographer were born in Istanbul, and each in his youth held the ambition of becoming a painter. Here, each in his own way paints a picture of his home town and captures its very soul. Ara Güler is one of Turkey's indeed the world's greatest photographers. The Nobel Prize-winning Orhan Pamuk is Turkey's best-known writer.
