Ahmed Anzavur: Soldier, Governor, and Rebel. a Reevaluation of a Late Ottoman Military Man
(Oriental inst Czech Acad Sci, 2023) Yelbasi, Caner
Following the Russian conquest of the North Caucasus, many Muslims from the region were exiled to the Ottoman Empire from the 1860s onwards. They were settled in different parts of the empire from the Balkans to Anatolia to the Syria and Iraq vilayets. By following this policy, the Ottoman state ensured that many Circassians would become part of the Ottoman army, ruling elites, harems and agricultural workforce. Anzavur Ahmed's family was one of them. Although he did not graduate from military school, he participated in the army during the war in Libya (1911), the Balkan Wars (1912-1913), and the First World War (1914-1918). He was also appointed as the governor of Izmit (1920). Anzavur Ahmet is portrayed as a rebel by Turkish official historiography, but in reality, he was much more than that. He was an Ottoman Governor, and supported by Ottoman administrators such as Damad Ferid and Ali Kemal, who were against the Kuvayi Milliye because they believed that the empire would eventually emerge from the chaotic atmosphere of the post-First World War period and make an agreement with the British. This article argues that although Ahmed Anzavur has been labeled a rebel and a traitor according to the official historiography, it is difficult to use these labels given the circumstances of his time.
Bodily boundaries transgressed: corporal alteration through ornamentation in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic at Boncuklu Tarla, Türkiye
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2024) Kodaş, Ergül; Baysal, Emma L.; Ozkan, Kazim
Lack of contextual evidence for the use of small personal ornaments means that much of our understanding of ornamentation traditions within archaeological cultures is reconstructed from ethnographic comparisons. New in situ finds from the areas around the ears and mouth in burials at Boncuklu Tarla, a Neolithic settlement in Turkiye, add a novel dimension to the interpretation of stone 'tokens' or 'plugs'. This article presents a new typology for these artefacts and argues for their use as ear ornaments or labrets in a practice involving significant and lasting corporal alteration.
Inclusive Mental Health Support for International Students: Unveiling Delivery Components in Higher Education
(Cambridge University Press, 2024) Sakız, Halis; Jencius, M.
This study examines the delivery components of inclusive mental health services in higher education, centering on international university students. Through interviews with 32 participants at a state university in the United States, including students, counseling staff, and faculty, six key themes emerged: mental health professionals' multicultural self-awareness, focus on reparative services, mainstream mental health theories and approaches, professionals' cultural background, faculty involvement and physical space and confidentiality. These findings underscore the importance of training for professionals, expansive mental health offerings, incorporation of diverse approaches, confidentiality, active faculty participation and suitable physical environments. By addressing these components, universities can enhance the quality of mental health support for international student populations, promoting their overall well-being and academic success. © The Author(s), 2024.

Khorsabad/dūr-šarrukin Kazısı ve Asar-ı Atika\rMizamnamelerine Etkisi
(İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2021) Genç, Bülent
Musul’a Fransa konsolosu olarak atanan Paolo Emilio Botta ile 19. yüzyılın son\rçeyreğinde Mezopotamya Arkeolojisi’nde önemli değişimler yaşanmaya başlar.\rBotta’nın Musul çevresinde yaptığı araştırmalar sırasında Khorsabad köyünden\rgelen bir kişi, bir tepenin üzerine inşa edilmiş kabartmalarla bezeli taşlar ve\ryazıtlardan bahseder. Kuyunjik’teki üç ay süren yorucu çalışmalardan sonra Botta,\r20 Mart 1843’te bir grup işçisini Khorsabad’a göndererek kazıya başlatır. Ancak\rBotta’nın Musul’daki çalışmalarında bir süre sonra bazı problemler baş göstermeye\rbaşlar. Özellikle vilayetteki Mehmed Paşa’nın çeşitli engeller oluşturduğu\rgörülmektedir. Bu bağlamda Botta’nın kazı izin ve belgelerini, Musul Paşası’nın\rengellerini ve Botta’nın Khorsabad’ta yaşadığı hikâyenin ayrıntılarını, arka planını\rve konu ile ilgili yazışmalarını öğrenmek için Osmanlı Arşivi’nde araştırmalarda\rbulunduk. Botta’nın Khorsabad’da yaşadığı problemler, kazı iznine ve kazı evi\rinşasına dair şartlar, Botta’nın bahsettiği ve köy evlerinin yanında bir kale gibi\rçizilerek İstanbul’a gönderilen kazı evinin planı ve köylülerin Botta’nın çalışmalarına\rve kazı evine karşı sunduğu dilekçeler gibi belgelerle karşılaştık. Bu makalede\rsöz konusu belgeler üzerinden Botta’nın kazı dönemlerini, izin belgelerini ve\rkarşılaştığı problemleri yeniden okumaya çalışarak bu dönemin nasıl ele alındığını\rve nasıl değerlendirildiğini anlamaya çalıştık. Özellikle Khorsabad bağlamında\rBotta’ya verilen kazı iznini ve maddelerini gözden geçirerek sonraki Asar-ı Atika\rNizamnameleri’ne katkısını irdeledik.
Lake Van Basin Urartian Period Road Routes Survey: First Preliminary Report (2017-2018): Muradiye And Tuşba Districts
(TARIH INCELEMELERI DERGISI, 2021) Genç, Bülent; Kuvanç, Rıfat; Genç, Bülent
For about two-hundred-fifty years between the mid-9th - early 6th centuries BC, the Urartian Kingdom established its hegemony in Eastern Anatolia and the neighboring regions of Northwestern Iran, Nakhchivan, and Armenia, as the most influential political, military, and economic power of its time. Despite the rugged geography and rough climatic conditions of this mountainous terrain, the Urartu thrived by developing a centralized administrative state apparatus. Urartu excelled in many areas of state-building, including road networks. Particularly textual sources and supporting archaeological evidence demonstrate the importance of road networks for the Urartian state. Surveys in Tushba and Muradiye districts have allowed us to identify the main route of the northern capital road, which continues north and reaches Muradiye Plain, and an alternative northern route that follows the Karasu Stream valley towards Muradiye Plain. An eastern route, which enabled the kingdom to exert control in Northwestern Iran, goes through Özalp district of Van province across the modern border to Iran and reaches Hoy and Salmas. These alternative and auxiliary routes along deep canyons that developed over time suggest that the Urartian state had established an intricate security web in its dominion.
Political discourse and semiotics
(de Gruyter Mouton, 2024) Canakpinar, Betul; Kalelioglu, Murat; Gunay, Veli Dogan; Doğan, Yusuf; Kalelioğlu, Murat
In recent years, semiotics has put "life" at the center of the subject of study. There is the desire to be successful in the lifestyle and the desire to convey the right knowledge to the recipient or the correct use of practices in life. A semiotic theory developed by Jacques Fontanille recently showed that strategy can also be used in semiotic analysis. So, the way of life that Fontanille talks about is not just strategy. The process we call "lifestyle" has an order from small to large: There are basic signs, texts, objects, actants, practices, action phases, strategies, and finally lifestyle. In this study, we question the function of strategy, but generally of productive pursuit, in the analysis of political discourses. In our study, we reveal the approach of semiotics to political discourses that concern the whole world and discuss whether they are valid in every society. We emphasize political semiotics, which is used to understand the general structure of political discourses, and show the general functioning of political discourses with Greimas' Actantial Model. We conclude that politicians can influence target audiences by using various methods and discourse strategies.
The Role of Technological Devices in Parent-Children Interactions: The Correlated Variables of Children's Well-Being and Life Satisfaction
(Sage Publications inc, 2025) Ergün, Naif; Ergun, Naif; Aslan, Alper; Goksu, Idris
This study aims to examine children's well-being and life satisfaction in terms of various variables related to parents' and children's problematic technology usage. Specifically, parent/child responses during their technology use and parents' phubbing and technoference behaviors were considered. The study was conducted with 185 children (8-14) and their parents (mother = 96, father = 89). The data were analyzed by performing correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis, t test, and one-way ANOVA. According to the results, there were negative correlations between children's life satisfaction and age, children's technological device (smartphone, computer) usage time, and children/parents responding negatively to each other when engaged in technological devices. Children's well-being was negatively correlated to their age and children/parents responding negatively to each other when engaged in technological devices. A positive correlation was found between children's life satisfaction and well-being as well as parents' phubbing and technoference. According to another result, the well-being of children having their own computer was significantly higher than those who do not have a computer. Finally, children/parents responding negatively to each other when engaged in technological devices negatively predicted the children's life satisfaction and well-being.
A Stylistic Approach To Thomas Campion's there is a Garden in Her Face
(Rector Ciu Cyprus int Univ, 2023) Alkan, Halit
Literary works come into existence through authors' use of language units in particular ways. Style is considered as the choice of linguistic characteristics from all the probabilities in language. Stylistics attempts to create an interaction of readers with the language of a literary text to clarify how a reader understands the text. This study examines how Thomas Campion manipulated basic linguistic features to form stylistic effects in order to produce meaning in There Is a Garden in Her Face. The analysis involves lexical, semantic, grammatical (syntactic), graphological, and phonological (sound pattern) levels. It helps to clarify the context of the poem. The stylistic analysis shows that the poem is very carefully constructed. All three stanzas in the poem are grammatically parallel to each other and deal with the lady's beauty whose face is compared to a garden of heavenly paradise where every kind of delicious fruit grows there. The unity of the poem is secured by the refrain describing a beautiful lady's lips. The graphological deviation shows a system of capitalization to foreground important words such as "Roses" and "white Lilies" in the poem to represent love/passion, and innocence/purity. The phonetic parallelism reinforces the system of parallel meaning in terms of alliteration and assonance. The poem is based mostly on similes and metaphors to make the imagery of the flowers and fruit growing in a garden much more vivid. With this, the lady's physical features are portrayed. The noun cherry is used with the adjective sacred which portrays that the lady's lips have not been touched or kissed by anyone. The same line which is repeated at the end of each stanza foregrounds that this beautiful lady is unattainable unless if she says her lips are fully ripe to become most valuable. Here, female beauty signals the ideals of Elizabethan beauty: white skin, blushing cheeks, and red lips. This study shows how Campion has been able to manipulate language which is an integral part of a literary work. Campion has created changes through a systemic use of language to get his message across to readers. This study may help researchers understand how Campion used stylistic tools in his poem.
Tracing royal consumption and socio-symbolism through faunal remains: Zooarchaeology of Iron Age–Urartu Ayanis citadel, Eastern Turkiye
(Elsevier, 2024) Siddiq, Abu B.; Isikli, Mehmet
Despite having a research history of more than one and a half centuries, zooarchaeological investigations within Urartian archaeology are still very limited. This study marks a significant contribution presenting a comprehensive zooarchaeological dataset of 11,977 animal bones and fragments, primarily unearthed from a royal midden at the Urartian site of Ayanis citadel, Eastern Turkiye. The analysis encompasses species identification, age estimation, sex determination, and the identification of taphonomic and pathological changes. Rigorous measurements were taken to establish a robust zooarchaeological dataset. Logarithmic Size Index (LSI) was calculated to identify the morphological characteristics of Ayanis sheep, goats, and cattle, as well as potential sex -based exploitation of these animals. Contextualizing the results with faunal remains from contemporary Urartian sites including Bastam in Iran, and Karmir-Blur, Aramus and Horom in Armenia, this study presents hitherto overlooked archaeological evidence of animal -based consumption behavior and rituals, and possible animal taboos practiced by the Urartian royals and elites. It also offers new opportunities for comparative analyses and discussions for the biometric status of domestic livestock and animal -human interactions within the broader context of the Iron Age in the Lesser Caucasus and West Asia.
Türkçe Şâhnâme Tercümeleri ve Zerdüşt’ün Tercümelerde Uğradığı Dönüşümtürkçe Şâhnâme Tercümeleri ve Zerdüşt’ün Tercümelerde Uğradığı Dönüşüm
(İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2021) Yakut, Emrullah
Tercüme faaliyetinde hedef ve kaynak metin arasında, kültür farklılığı ve iki dilin sahip olduğu imkân ve özellikler sebebiyle değişiklikler olması kaçınılmazdır. Buna ilaveten yazarın bakış açısı, tercümenin hedef kitlesi, tercümenin amacı veya dönemin şartlarının getirdiği bazı zaruretler de tercümenin üslûbuna ve muhtevasına etki edebilir. Başta Şerîfî-i Amîdî’nin manzum tercümesi olmak üzere Şâhnâme tercümelerinde Zerdüşt karakterinin uğradığı dönüşüm bu duruma örnek teşkil etmektedir. İslam ve İran tarihi açısından farklı şekilde algılanan Zerdüşt, kaynak metin olan Şâhnâme’de olumlu bir şahsiyet olarak sunulurken bazı Türkçe tercümelerde olumsuz bir karakter olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Şâhnâme ile Türkçe tercümelerde Zerdüşt karakterinin nasıl bir şahsiyet olarak takdim edildiğinin tespiti yapılarak farklılıklar ortaya konulmakta, mütercimlerin bu konudaki çeviri kararlarında etkili olan âmiller tetkik edilmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra Şâhnâme tercümeleri ve nüshalarıyla ile ilgili bazı bilgiler de tashih edilmektedir. Makalede; Şerîfî tarafından yapılan manzum tercüme; II. Murad’ın emriyle yapılan, mütercimi belli olmayan tercüme; II. Osman’ın emriyle Medhî mahlaslı Derviş Hasan tarafından yapılan tercüme; İÜ Kütüphanesi Nadir Eserler TY6131-6133 numaralarıyla kayıtlı, mütercimi belli olmayan tercüme; İBB Kütüphanesi Muallim Cevdet nr. 101 numarasıyla kayıtlı mütercimi belli olmayan tercüme; Süleymaniye Kütüphanesi Hüsrev Paşa nr. 370 numaralı Eyüp Sabri Paşa'ya ait olduğu kaydedilen tercüme incelenmiştir.
Turkey’s Progress Toward Meeting Refugee Education Needs The Example Of Syrian Refugees
(Ani Publishing, 2016) Beltekin, N.
Problem Statement: Historically, Turkey is an immigrant country. It has experienced various migration waves from Asia, Awrupa and Africa. Recently, Turkey has confronted a huge wave of migration. Turkey tries to meet many needs besides the educational needs of refugees, but there is not enough study on refugess in the field of educational sciences in Turkey. Purpose of the Study: The purpose of this study is to analyze the Turkey’s progress toward meeting refugee education needs through the example of the Syrian Refugee experience. Method: The study uses a case study of the refugees in Mardin and its districts. The data in this study is compiled through interview and observation techniques. An interview form was developed and included the standards (access, integration, quality, protection, participation, partnership, observation and evaluation) suggested by the Office of UNCHR. Coordinators, directors and teachers at schools in Mardin, Midyat and Kızıltepe were interviewed. The researchers tried to turn the data into quantitative and qualitative indicators, taking into account the standards for the various levels of meeting refugee education needs. Findings and Results: Turkey supported refugee education in various ways; for instance, opening schools in the refugee camps and meeting various needs for voluntary schools. The results indicated, however, that according to measures of access, integration, quality, protection, participation, partnership, observation and evaluation, refugee education needs have been inadequately met, and Turkey hasn’t a system for refugee education. Conclusions and Recommendations: It has been suggested that Turkey develop a refugee education policy and use UNCHR standards for refugee education. For this, first, Turkey should create a systematic format for its refugee education program. MEB should develop a policy on refugee education. For example, MEB should use UNHCR’s criteria to measure access, integration, quality, protection, participation, partnership, observation and evaluation of refugee education. In addition, educational sciences should research refugee education from a holistic perspetive that includes relevant international law and policy fields. © 2016, Ani Publishing. All rights reserved.
With the Whip Into the Dirty Orient: the Depiction of the Orient in Oskar Mann’s Travel Letters
(2021) Avcı, Remzi
The present article deals with the travel letters of the German orientalist Oskar Mann\r(1867-1917). With financial support from the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences,\rMann made two expeditions to the Ottoman Empire and Iran between 1901 and\r1906 to research the Iranian languages and dialects. Travel letters and travel diaries are texts with relatively subjective value judgments, in which people and cultures are often described using ethnocentric\rstereotypes, because a real journey represents a cultural encounter and confrontation with the other that offers unique and\rinvaluable information about the new world. The description of a foreign culture cannot be separated from the subjective\rvalue judgments of a traveller. This means the foreign world in which the traveller moves is represented by the subject who\rexperiences it. According to Mann, the Orientals are people from a place that has surrendered to the West. He separates\rthe Orient from the Occident with precise and sharp lines and divides them Eurocentrically into two separate categories.\rDuring his travels, Mann produced and imparted knowledge about the foreign cultures on the one hand, and on the other\rhand he spread and reinforced images and prejudices as well as stereotypes that led to the ontological differentiation\rbetween Orient and Occident. This essay tries to show that he perceived the Orient with hegemonic thought patterns and\rthat his foreign imagination remained deeply rooted in the classic European orientalist discourse of the 19th century, and\ras a consequence the Orient was devalued. This study discusses the stereotypes, images and pattern of ideas that he used\rto represent the population of the foreign country where he travelled
