  • Terminology of Art Music in Ottoman Turkish and Modern Turkish Lexicography (19Th-21St Century)
    TERMINOLOGY OF ART MUSIC IN OTTOMAN TURKISH AND MODERN TURKISH LEXICOGRAPHY (19TH-21ST CENTURY). Agata Pawlina Jagiellonian University Abstract In this paper the author presents preliminary conclusions concerning changes in forms (in respect of orthography and morphology) and semantics of musical terms in Ottoman Turkish and modern Turkish lexicography. Selected dictionaries (including mono- and bilingual, general and specialized ones) from the period between the 19th and 21st century had been analyzed. This period of time is particularly interesting for establishing how a) Turkish lexicographic works reflect the Westernization of high- culture music of the late Ottoman Empire and the young Republic of Turkey and b) differences between art music of the Ottoman and European traditions are perceived nowadays. By presenting a terminological analysis of words considered to be not only basic musicological terms but also a part of natural language (‘singer’, ‘piano’, ‘kanun’) the author unveils some of the issues associated with the translation of Turkish musical terms into European languages and vice-versa. Those problems arise from the duality and hybridity which exist in contemporary Turkish musical culture. Its older part, the so-called classical/traditional art music (tur. Türk sanat müziği or Osmanlı/Türk klasik müziği) emerged at the turn of the 17th century, as a part of a Middle Eastern art musical tradition. Later on, during modernizing efforts conducted in the declining Ottoman Empire in the 19th century, European art music had been incorporated along with its international, translingual terminology. As a result of such duality, interesting phenomena are being observed in modern Turkish vocabulary concerning art music.

  • SILK ROAD: the Silk Road
    SILK ROAD: The Silk Road (or Silk Routes) is an extensive interconnected network of trade routes across the Asian continent connecting East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean world, as well as North and Northeast Africa and Europe. FIDDLE/VIOLIN: Turkic and Mongolian horsemen from Inner Asia were probably the world’s earliest fiddlers (see below). Their two-stringed upright fiddles called morin khuur were strung with horsehair strings, played with horsehair bows, and often feature a carved horse’s head at the end of the neck. The morin khuur produces a sound that is poetically described as “expansive and unrestrained”, like a wild horse neighing, or like a breeze in the grasslands. It is believed that these instruments eventually spread to China, India, the Byzantine Empire and the Middle East, where they developed into instruments such as the Erhu, the Chinese violin or 2-stringed fiddle, was introduced to China over a thousand years ago and probably came to China from Asia to the west along the silk road. The sound box of the Ehru is covered with python skin. The erhu is almost always tuned to the interval of a fifth. The inside string (nearest to player) is generally tuned to D4 and the outside string to A4. This is the same as the two middle strings of the violin. The violin in its present form emerged in early 16th-Century Northern Italy, where the port towns of Venice and Genoa maintained extensive ties to central Asia through the trade routes of the silk road. The violin family developed during the Renaissance period in Europe (16th century) when all arts flourished.

  • Music: the Case of Afghanistan by JOHN BAILY
    from Popular Music 1, CambridgeUniversity Press 1981 Cross -cultural perspectives in popular music: the case of Afghanistan by JOHN BAILY The problem of definition It is inevitable that the first issue of this yearbook will raise questions about the use of the term 'popular music'. I do not believe that this question is going to be easy to answer and, as a precaution, I think we should regard quick and seemingly clearcut solutions with suspicion. In fact, we may eventually have to operate with intuitive, poorly defined and rather elastic definitions of popular music. Before we resort to that expedient, however, the problem of definition must be considered and discussed from various points of view. The editors have offered the following two definitions (the number- ing is mine): (1)From one point of view 'popular music' exists in any stratified society. It is seen as the music of the mass of the people ... as against that of an élite. (2) From another point of view there is at the very least a significant qualita- tive change, both in the meaning which is felt to attach to the term and in the processes to which the music owes its life, when a society undergoes indus- trialisation. From this point of view popular music is typical of societies with a relatively highly developed division of labour and a clear distinction between producers and consumers, in which cultural products are created largely by professionals, sold in a mass market and reproduced through mass media. (P. i above) The first of these definitions is very general, the second very specific.

  • The Armenian Cathedral of Sourp Asdvadzadzin (Theotokos) in Strovolos, Nicosia
    THE ARMENIAN CATHEDRAL OF SOURP ASDVADZADZIN (THEOTOKOS) IN STROVOLOS, NICOSIA research-text: Alexander-Michael Hadjilyra The Armenian cathedral of Sourp Asdvadzadzin (Theotokos) in Strovolos, Nicosia, next to Nareg School, the Prelature and the Armenian Genocide monument, is the centre of Armenian-Cypriot religious and community life, a meeting place of local and foreign Armenians, even Armenians and non-Armenians. It is a powerful symbol of this community and it serves as a living reminder of its mediaeval predecessor in walled Nicosia. Following the 1963-1964 intercommunal troubles, Armenian-Cypriots of Nicosia lost not only their homes and businesses, but also their church, Prelature, school and clubs. Thanks to Archbishop Makarios III, the small Ayios Dhometios chapel was used for the community’s religious needs as of early 1964; for large Liturgies, the nearby church of Saint George (1964-1969) or the Anglican cathedral of Saint Paul (1969-1981) or Nareg’s auditorium (1972-1981) were used. In the mean time, the community was trying to get back on its feet and eventually managed to build a new school, church, Prelature and Genocide monument. The issue of the school building was settled relatively quickly: the land was given to the community in trust by the government in 1966 thanks to the efforts of Representative Berge Tilbian, while the actual building was erected on Cyclops street between 1971- 1972, thanks to the efforts of Representative Dr. Antranik L. Ashdjian and funding from the Ministry of Education. However, the issue of the church was a different matter: between 1973-1974, the government had proposed various hali lands (government- owned uncultivated lands), abundant in the Acropolis area, but the Ethnarchy and particularly der Vazken Sandrouni felt the need to have the church next to the school.

    FREESIDE EUROPE ONLINE ACADEMIC JOURNAL 2020/1 ALUMNI ISSUE www.freesideeurope.com DOI 10.51313/alumni-2020-9 Categories and social meanings: An analysis of international students’ language practices in an international school Jani-Demetriou Bernadett ELTE Doctoral School of Linguistics [email protected] Abstract Bilingual educational programmes in recent years received criticism from translanguaging or superdiversity scholars. These programmes follow either the subtractive or the additive models of bilingual education (García 2009), in both of which the languages are considered as separate systems. This distinction is considered as “inadequate to describe linguistic diversity” (García 2009: 142) and masks the real diversity of difference by focusing only on languages. Thinking in terms of plurilingualism and multiculturalism “might contribute to a continuation of thinking in terms of us-versus-them, essentializing cultural or ethnic differences” (Geldof 2018: 45). The present study argues that a critical ethnographic sociolinguistic approach provides a more relevant analysis of children’s language practices. From this critical perspective, speaking is highlighted instead of languages and considered as action in which the linguistic resources carry social meaning (Blommaert–Rampton 2011). This paper introduces the findings of an ethnographic fieldwork set in an international summer school where linguistic and ethnic diversity is a commonplace, although a strict English-only language policy applies in order to achieve the school’s pedagogical goals. The aim of the research has been to find out how students from various cultural background are dealing with ethnical and linguistic diversity and to analyse how the processes of normalisation (Geldof 2018) among students and teachers create values and categories accepted as norms by the group.

  • Memorandum Exploitation of Maronite Properties in Occupied Cyprus 1
    Memorandum Exploitation of Maronite Properties in Occupied Cyprus 1. The Maronite Community in Cyprus has a history that goes back many centuries (over 1000 years). The Maronites of Cyprus practice their own Catholic Maronite religion, they have their own Arabic language, although they all are fluent in Greek, they use the Aramaic language in their liturgy and they have their own customs and culture. As an integral part of the people of Cyprus, when Cyprus declared its independence and the 1960 constitutional arrangements were imposed, the Maronite Community chose to belong, for constitutional purposes, to the Greek Cypriot Community. With the first census carried out by the newly established Republic of Cyprus in 1960, there were approximately 2572 Maronites living in Cyprus. 2. The Turkish military invasion of 1974 resulted in the occupation of all the Maronite villages, namely Kormakitis, Asomatos, Ayia Marina and Karpashia. Subsequently, the vast majority of the Maronite Community was displaced from its historical and cultural localities. Today, about 98% of the Community which now number about 6000 are refugees and are located in the areas controlled by the Cyprus Government. Specifically their occupied villages are as follows: • Asomatos: The village lies in the Kyrenia district. It is the second largest Maronite village. Prior to 1974, the inhabitants of Asomatos were nearly seven hundred. Today, only five Maronites live in the village. The Turkish army has established two centers in the village, one of them in the elementary school and the other in several houses. Several storage houses for petrol, food and artilleries have been serving the army in close proximity to the military camps.

These include: the inaccessibility of the northern part of the island after the Turkish invasion, the lack of a written language, and the fragility of Cypriot artifacts. Many aspects of protohistoric Cypriot life have become more understood, such as: the economic structure, social organization, and interactions between Cyprus and Anatolia.

  • The Gordian Knot: American and British Policy Concerning the Cyprus Issue: 1952-1974
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: AMERICAN AND BRITISH POLICY CONCERNING THE CYPRUS ISSUE: 1952-1974 Michael M. Carver A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2006 Committee: Dr. Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor Dr. Gary R. Hess ii ABSTRACT Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor This study examines the role of both the United States and Great Britain during a series of crises that plagued Cyprus from the mid 1950s until the 1974 invasion by Turkey that led to the takeover of approximately one-third of the island and its partition. Initially an ancient Greek colony, Cyprus was conquered by the Ottoman Empire in the late 16th century, which allowed the native peoples to take part in the island’s governance. But the idea of Cyprus’ reunification with the Greek mainland, known as enosis, remained a significant tenet to most Greek-Cypriots. The movement to make enosis a reality gained strength following the island’s occupation in 1878 by Great Britain. Cyprus was integrated into the British imperialist agenda until the end of the Second World War when American and Soviet hegemony supplanted European colonialism. Beginning in 1955, Cyprus became a battleground between British officials and terrorists of the pro-enosis EOKA group until 1959 when the independence of Cyprus was negotiated between Britain and the governments of Greece and Turkey. The United States remained largely absent during this period, but during the 1960s and 1970s came to play an increasingly assertive role whenever intercommunal fighting between the Greek and Turkish-Cypriot populations threatened to spill over into Greece and Turkey, and endanger the southeastern flank of NATO.
