  • Hazar Türkçesi Ve Hazar Türkçesi Leksikoloji Tespiti Denemesi
    HAZAR TÜRKÇESİ VE HAZAR TÜRKÇESİ LEKSİKOLOJİ TESPİTİ DENEMESİ Pınar Özdemir* Özet Eski Türkçenin diyalektleri arasında sayılan Hazar Türkçesi ma- alesef ardında yazılı eserler bırakmamıştır. Çalışmamızda bilinenden bilinmeyene metoduyla hareket ede- rek ilk önce mevcut Hazar Türkçesine ait kelimeleri derleyip, ortak özelliklerini tespit edip, mihenk taşlarımızı oluşturduk. Daha sonra Hazar Devleti’nin yaşadığı coğrafyada bu gün yaşayan Türk hak- larının dillerinden Karaçay-Malkar, Karaim, Kırımçak ve Kumuk Türkçelerinin ortak kelimelerini tespit ettik. Bu ortak kelimelerin de leksik ve morfolojik özelliklerini belirledikten sonra birbirleriyle karşılaştırıp aralarındaki uyumu göz önüne sererek Hazar Türkçesi Leksikoloji Tespitini denedik. Anahtar Kelimeler : Hazar, Karaçay-Malkar, Karaim, Kırımçak, Kumuk AbstraCt Unfortunately there is not left any written works behind Khazar Turkish which is deemed to be one of the dialects of old Turkish. In our work primarily key voices, forms and the words of Khazar Turkish have been determined with respect to the features of voice and forms of the existing words remaining from that period. Apart from these determined key features it have been determined the mu- tual aspects of Karachay-Malkar, Karaim, Krymchak and Kumuk Turkish which are known as the remnants of Khazar and it has been intended to reveal the vocabulary of Khazar Turkish. Key Words : Khazar, Karachay-Malkar, Karaim, Kırımchak, Ku- muk Önceleri Göktürk Devletine bağlı olan Hazar Hakanlığı bu devletin iç ve dış savaşlar neticesinde yıkıldığı 630–650 yılları arasındaki süreçte devlet olma temellerini atmıştır.

  • KHAZAR TURKIC GHULÂMS in CALIPHAL SERVICE1 Arab
    KHAZAR TURKIC GHULÂMS IN CALIPHAL SERVICE1 BY PETER B. GOLDEN Arab — Khazar relations, in particular their military confrontations for control of the Caucasus, have long been the subject of investigation. As a consequence of that sustained period of military encounters, the Khazars enjoyed a fierce reputation in the Islamic world. Thus, al-Balâd- hurî, in his comments on the massacre of some of the populace of MawÒil (Mosul) in the aftermath of the ‘Abbâsid takeover in 133/750, says that “because of their evil, the people of Mosul were called the Khazars of the Arabs.”2 Much less studied is one of the side-products of those wars: the presence of Khazars in the Caliphate itself. As with other peoples captured in warfare or taken or purchased on the periphery of the Caliphate, the Khazars in the Islamic heartlands were largely, but not exclusively, used as professional military men, slave-soldiers of the Caliphs, usually termed ghilmân (sing. ghulâm, lit. “boy, servant, slave”3). The relationship of these aliens to the larger Arab and Arabized 1 I would like to thank Michael Bates and Matthew Gordon for their thoughtful read- ings of this paper.

The thirteenth tribe. The collapse of the Khazar Empire and its Heritage. Trans. from English. Kabalkina AY - SPb .: Publishing Group "Eurasia", 2001. - 320 p. Arthur Koestler found an original response to the ideology of anti- Semitism. According to him opinion, the fall of the Khazar khanate spawned several waves of migration, constituting the main core of the population professing Judaism in Eastern Europe. Since ethnic migrants from the Khazars were not Semites, it is untenable and anti-Semitism. Drawing on texts for Arab travelers ninth and tenth centuries. Byzantine sources, "Tale of Bygone Years", works Artamonov Kokovtsov Toynbee, Vernadsky, Dunlop, Kucera, Poles and many others historians, the author provides several different vision of the formation and collapse of Khazar state. Other accents becomes paradoxical at first view the choice of faith. A fascinating study of the history of the Khazar khanate, throughout its existence was under the cross countervailing pressure state, religious and political interest will not leave the reader indifferent, for history, for getting up Koestler pages of the book, does not tolerate indifference.

Russia Eternal: Recalling The Imperial Era In Late- And Post-Soviet Literature And Culture Abstract The return of Tsarist buildings, narratives and symbols has been a prominent facet of social life in post- Soviet Russia. My dissertation aims to explain this phenomenon and its meaning by tracking contemporary Russia’s cultural memory of the Imperial era. By close-reading both popular and influential cultural texts, as well as analyzing their conditions of production and reception, I show how three generations of Russian cultural elites from the 1950s until today have used Russia’s past to fight present- day political battles, and outline how the cultural memory of the Imperial epoch continues to inform post- Soviet Russian leaders and their mainstream detractors. Chapters One and Two situate the origin of Russian culture’s current engagement with the pre-Revolutionary era in the social dynamic following Stalin’s death in 1953.
