With the risk of unintentionally leaving someone out, I would like to thank those who have trained, helped, supported and funded my research and me. I would first like to thank my committee members who have inspired, challenged, supported, and improved my work. My co-chairs, Ann Cvetkovich and Kamran Asdar Ali, have been generous supporters and kind critics. Ann Cvetkovich has helped me to develop a fuller sense of the roles of print culture, public cultures, and the public sphere in understanding the Ottoman society and culture. She has read several different drafts of this dissertation, giving critical, thoughtful, and encouraging feedback on all versions. She pushed me to articulate my arguments with force and confidence. I am especially thankful to her for always respecting me as a scholar and expressing her belief in me. Her intellectual and emotional support during the emotional ups and downs of graduate school made everything more bearable. She has also set for me a constant example of academic rigor, professional integrity, and human kindness. Kamran Asdar Ali has been influential in my understanding of the role of nationalism and gender in the Middle East. He has helped me to read the modernity project more critically, paying attention to losses as well as gains of such practices in the larger Middle East as well as in Turkey. He also v helped me to see the connections between Turkey and the Middle East and South Asia in terms of late nineteenth century women’s movements and print cultures. He and his wife, Saima, have also been the warmest friends to me as well as to other students from Turkey at UT, inviting us to Eid celebrations, thus making us feel at home far from home. My deepest gratitude also goes to Elizabeth Richmond-Garza, whose continuous support and interest in my project, and her generosity in sharing her knowledge and comments, have been extraordinary. As the chair of the Program in Comparative Literature, as the co- chair of my Master’s Report, and as my dissertation committee member, Elizabeth Richmond-Garza has been an excellent mentor since I started the program. She has supported my research in every possible way. She read all drafts of my dissertation, giving generous and insightful feedback. Samer Ali introduced me to medieval Islamic history and medieval Arabic texts as well as Arabic novels. He also encouraged me to continue working on this project by reminding me of the contributions of this study to Middle Eastern studies and of the need for interaction between comparative literature and area studies. Yıldıray Erdener kindly agreed to be on my committee and always showed confidence in my work and supported it. Whenever I saw him, with his wit and humor, he always reminded me to see the bigger picture in life. Sonia Seeman’s coming to UT Austin right at the time I started writing my dissertation has been a wonderful coincidence. She kindly agreed to be part of this project and contributed to it both with her expertise on Turkey and her careful reading of my final draft and giving feedback on it. Her own work on music cultures of Turkey helped me to appreciate the Ottoman and Turkish culture in a more complete way. Since she has joined the UT Austin faculty, with the Middle Eastern Ensemble concerts that she directs and the music parties she vi organizes, she made Austin a heaven for Middle Eastern, Ottoman, Turkish, Kurdish, Roma, and Balkan music for me and others. My interest and curiosity towards Turkish literature and Turkish women writers started when I was an undergraduate student at the Department of Foreign Language Education at the Middle East Technical University (METU) in Ankara. As an English Literature major, in my courses on Medieval English texts or Shakespearean drama or the Victorian novel, I would always wonder about the canonical texts and authors in Turkish, my mother tongue. So, it all started with a naïve curiosity about wondering what Ottomans were writing at the same time as the authors of the texts that I was studying then. My interest and knowledge in literature have been developed and sharpened as a result of courses taught by my professors at METU as well as with lively discussions with friends. I would like to commemorate my late professor Seyfi Karabaş (1945-1998) and thank him for teaching me not to be afraid of challenging the established readings of texts, to trust in my literary judgment, and to be creative and bold in my own interpretations. As a comparatist himself and a renowned folklore scholar, he was the first professor who inspired me about the possibilities and pleasures of studying one’s own literature and culture. In that respect, his own scholarship on Dede Korkut Hikayeleri and the Nasrettin Hoca stories has been an insightful example for me. Sevda Çalışkan has been a wonderful mentor to me, both when I was completing my course work as well as writing my MA thesis at METU. She encouraged me to continue my interest in literature in the comparative literature field as well as my decision to continue my studies in the U.S. She also introduced me to feminist studies in her literary theory courses, and I wrote my very first analysis on Turkish literature in her graduate course on Literary Theory and vii Criticism. Nursel İçöz taught me Victorian studies and the Victorian novel. In her courses, I have started to think more critically about the representation of women in fiction. Margaret Sönmez has been the kindest and most generous of my professors in her guidance in teaching me research methodologies, which were foundations for developing my own research questions and methodology. I started learning Ottoman by taking private lessons from Yılmaz Kurt from the Dil Tarih Coğrafya Fakültesi at Ankara University in the summer of 2003. I continued to take Ottoman in the Fall 2004 and Spring 2005 semesters at the Department of History at METU, which kindly allowed me to participate in Ottoman courses even though I wasn’t a student at METU anymore. There, my Ottoman instructors Murat Uluğtekin and İsmail Gündoğdu generously helped me to advance in my learning of Ottoman as well as guided me in the complicated nature of Ottoman texts and archives. Murat Uluğtekin also kindly helped me in transcribing some of the materials I used in this study. He has been a constant mentor whenever I needed to check something related to Ottoman language and culture. While conducting research in Turkey, several librarians and scholars guided me in the archives and libraries. I would like to thank the staff of the following archives and libraries in İstanbul and Ankara: Beyazıd Devlet Kütüphanesi, Taksim Atatürk Kitaplığı, Kadın Eserleri Kütüphanesi, İstanbul Üniversitesi Kütüphanesi, Milli Kütüphane, Türk Tarih Kurumu Kütüphanesi, İslam Araştırmaları Merkezi (ISAM), Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi Kütüphanesi. In particular, I would like to thank the Associate Director of the Beyazıd Devlet Kütüphanesi, Ms. Süheyla Şentürk, who generously allowed me to make copies of all of the Ottoman women’s journals the Beyazıd Library owned. Serpil Çakır viii from the Department of Political Science at the University of İstanbul assisted me during my research in İstanbul with her knowledge and expertise on Ottoman women’s movements and journals as well as by introducing me to other people who could help. Although we have been away from each other for years now, my friends in Turkey reminded me about the reasons why I in the first place decided to continue studying in the U.S. at the times I needed to hear it most and encouraged me to continue even at my most desperate moments. I thank them all: Nurhan Erbil, Nalan Özdemir, Kadriye Ramazanoğlu, Selime Onmuş, and Tamay Ergüven. Ιşık Erem has been a wonderful friend who has always welcomed me at her home in İstanbul. During my research in İstanbul, she has made all kinds of yardım ve yataklık to me that tremendously helped my stay and moving around İstanbul. Cambria Stamper-Santana was my very first friend that I made in the U.S. when I landed in Lubbock, Texas, and found myself in a cultural shock. Over the years, she has become one of my best and longest friends in the U.S. With her always positive and cheerful attitude, she uplifted my spirit, spoiling me with candies, chocolates, and other gifts as well as providing much needed editing support whenever I needed it. She also generously copy-edited one of the chapters of this dissertation. The friends from Turkey that I met in Austin have been a significant community for me to discuss everything about Turkey and Turkish culture, and we supported each other. Over the years, Selma İkiz and Murat Maga have helped me in many different ways, and I thank them both.

    Empire, Nation, and the Islamic World: Bosnian Muslim Reformists between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, 1901-1914 Harun Buljina Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Harun Buljina All rights reserved ABSTRACT Empire, Nation, and the Islamic World: Bosnian Muslim Reformists between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, 1901-1914 Harun Buljina This dissertation is a study of the early 20th-century Pan-Islamist reform movement in Bosnia-Herzegovina, tracing its origins and trans-imperial development with a focus on the years 1901-1914. Its central figure is the theologian and print entrepreneur Mehmed Džemaludin Čaušević (1870-1938), who returned to his Austro-Hungarian-occupied home province from extended studies in the Ottoman lands at the start of this period with an ambitious agenda of communal reform. Čaušević’s project centered on tying his native land and its Muslim inhabitants to the wider “Islamic World”—a novel geo-cultural construct he portrayed as a viable model for communal modernization. Over the subsequent decade, he and his followers founded a printing press, standardized the writing of Bosnian in a modified Arabic script, organized the country’s Ulema, and linked these initiatives together in a string of successful Arabic-script, Ulema-led, and theologically modernist print publications. By 1914, Čaušević’s supporters even brought him to a position of institutional power as Bosnia-Herzegovina’s Reis-ul-Ulema (A: raʾīs al-ʿulamāʾ), the country’s highest Islamic religious authority and a figure of regional influence between two empires.

Ayrıca ekonomik bir kavram olan rüşvetin Türk hiciv şiirindeki yeri örnekler gösterilerek açıklanacaktır. Osmanlı-Türk toplumlarında rüşvete ilişkin hiciv örneklerinin gelişimi çeşitli yüzyıllar kapsamında incelenecektir.

Osmanlıda 13. ve 14. yüzyıllardan beri ağır eleştiri, suçlama ve hiciv örnekleri ile dolu olan çeşitli zanaat ve mes- leklere ait şiir ve nesir şeklindeki edebiyat yapısı 15. ve 16. yüzyıllarda da devam etmiş, özellikle 17. ve 18. yüzyıllarda bu hiciv giderek artmıştır. 19. ve 20. yüzyılların hiciv örnekleri ise giderek daha bürokratik bir nitelik kazanmıştır. Toplumun üst katmanları ve sınıflarındaki küçük bir azınlık tüketim heveslerine dayalı yüksek hayat standartlarında yaşarken, toplumun orta ve düşük gelirli katmanları ve sınıflarındaki büyük bir çoğunluk ise düşük hayat standartlarında yaşamıştır.

  • Tevfik Fikret Hayatı, Sanatı, Şahsiyeti
    Merhum Tevfik Fikret’in vefatı tarihini? otuzuncu yıldönümü münasebetiyle yazılan Tercümei hali TEVFİK FİKRET Hayatı - San’atı - Şahsiyeti Dr. RIZA TEVFİK İNKILÂP KİTABE Vİ İstanbul, Ankara Caddesi, No. 155 KENAN MATBAASI İSTANBUL — I 94» MUKADDİME Memleketimizin uyanık ve okumuş adamları içinde Tevfik Fikretin adını bilmiyeri yok gibidir. Böyle olmakla beraber, eserlerini lâyıkiyle okuyup da mâneviyetini iyice tanıyanlar ve şiirlerinden hakkiyle zevk alanlar — genç nesil efradı arasında— pek çok olmasa gerektir. Her şeyi öğrenmeğe ziyadesiyle hevesli ve meraklı olan bu kıymetli gençlerimizin Fikret hakkında bildikleri şeyler birkaç an­ toloji kitaplarında (Sis) ve (Tarihi kadîm) gibi, en ziya­ de şöhret kazanmış olan bir iki manzumesinden ibaret gibidir. Onlar da — benim tahkikime göre— hatâdan sâ- lim değil!.. Bu mahrumiyete sebep, memleketimizde (ede­ biyatı cedide) devrinin en kudretli âmillerinden olan bu hamiyetli şairin eserlerini yeni harflerle bastırıp ihyaya himmet eden bir kimse bulunamamış olmasıdır. Kendisi bundan otuz sene evvel ölmüş olduğundan dolayı bizzât bu işle takayyüd edemezdi. Bu vazife onun kadrini ve kıymetini bilen ve adını unutturmak istemiyen sadık ve samimî döstlarına düşerdi. Ne kadar yazık ki henüz kırk sekiz yaşında iken (yani kendisinden tam olgun ve değerli eserler beklenildiği bir zamanda!) talihin kahrına heder olup giden bu heyecanlı şair, ayni zamanda kâmil bir edib ve kâtip idi. Fazla olarak nâzenin bir zevk sahibi, zarif bir artist ve hususâ muhayyilesi çok rengin ve zengin bir müstait ressamdı. Çok talebe yetiştirmiş kıymetli ve sa­ lâhiyetti bir hoca idi. Hele yüksek mânasiyle hayırlı bir insan nümunesiydi. Memleketimizin ve gençliğin hem muhlis hizmet­ kârları, hem de velinimetleri olan büyük adamlarını 4 TEVFİK FİKRET o gençliğe hakkiyle tanıtmak, (o büyük adamlara hür­ met ve yetişecek gençlere' hizmet) borcudur.

  • Language Use in the Ottoman Empire and Its Problems
    LANGUAGE USE IN THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE AND ITS PROBLEMS (1299-1923) by Yelda Saydam Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree M. Phil. in the Faculty of Humanities (Department of Greek and Centre for Islamic Studies) at the University of Johannesburg Supervisor: Prof. B. Hendrickx Co-supervisor: Dr A. Dockrat Johannesburg 2006/7 Abstract The Ottoman Empire, an imperial power that existed from 1299 to 1923, was one of the largest empires to rule the borders of the Mediterranean Sea. Ottoman Turkish was used especially between the 16th and 19th centuries during the Ottoman Empire. This ornamented, artificial language separated the general population from intellectual and palace elite and a communication problem followed. Although the minorities of the Ottoman Empire were free to use their language amongst themselves, if they needed to communicate with the government they had to use Ottoman Turkish. This thesis explains these language differences and the resulting problems they created during the Empire. Examples of original correspondence are used to highlight the communication differences and the difficulties that ensured. From this study, the author concludes that Ottoman Turkish was not a separate language from Turkish; instead, it was a variation of Turkish in inexistence for approximately 600 years. I Preface My family and I came to South Africa from Turkey during August 2002 for my husband’s sabbatical as a post-doctoral fellow at University of The Witwatersrand. We both took a years leave from our jobs when we came to South Africa. I was working for Havva Özişbakan High School in İzmir, Turkey as a Turkish Language and Literature teacher.

  • The Ideal of the West, the Reality of the East. Towards a New Poetics of Ottoman Modernization in the Novels of Edebiyat-I Cedide (1890S-1900S)*
    DOSSIER The time of the changes: the last decades of the Ottoman Empire The Ideal of the West, the Reality of the East. Towards a New Poetics of Ottoman Modernization in the Novels of Edebiyat-ı Cedide (1890s-1900s)* Petr KUČERA Universität Hamburg In the introduction to his acclaimed collection of short stories called Küçük Şeyler (Little Things, 1891) Sâmipaşazâde Sezâi claims that nowadays novels –obviously referring to both the European and the Ottoman ones– “left behind their childish form of strange stories and odd narrations” (“garâib-i hikâyât ve acaib-i rivâyât”), are written in a “superb poetic style” and based on the “triumphs of science against the secrets of nature” and on the analysis of human heart and mind. Thus, he continues, the writing of novels today should be called “the science of literary anatomy” (“ilm-i teşrih-i edebî”).1 Other contemporaries remember what decisive impact the texts of the new generation of writers who produced their first fruits in the late 1880s had on them. Mehmet Rauf (1875-1931), later a major figure of the New Literature (Edebiyat-ı Cedide) movement, tells us in his memoirs that as a teenager he devoured everything what there was new in Turkish literature, from Namık Kemal to Abdülhak Hamit, and a good number of French novels, too. However, it was only when he happened upon the newly published Nemide by Halit Ziya (1889) that he discovered a completely new world of fiction. Enraptured by the story, its style, its plot, its beautiful language, he felt that it changed the way he had used to view the Turkish novel.

    Turkish Studies - International Periodical For The Languages, Literature and History of Turkish or TurkicVolume 8/1 Winter 2013, p.1977-1993, ANKARA-TURKEY NEF’Î HAKKINDA BİR BİBLİYOGRAFYA DENEMESİ Halil Sercan KOŞİK* ÖZET On yedinci yüzyılın ilk yarısında yaşamış olan Nef’î, Erzurum’un Hasankale ilçesinde doğmuştur. Asıl adı Ömer olan şair, oldukça mücadele dolu bir hayat geçirmiş ve bu hayata aynı zamanda önemli denilebilecek eserler de sığdırabilmeyi başarmıştır. Divan şiirinin önde gelen şairlerden biri olan Nef’î, adından hem yaşadığı dönemde hem de sonrasında çokça söz ettirmiştir. Nef’î’nin böyle bir şöhrete kavuşması onun edebi yeteneği ve kıvrak zekası yanında kaleminin keskin olmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. Övdüğünü çok iyi öven, yerdiğini de çok kötü bir şekilde yeren Nef’î, edebiyatımızda ayrıca vezin ve kafiyede gösterdiği ustalıkla da tanınmaktadır. Mananın yanında lafza da önem veren şair, divan şiirinde yeni bir dil kullanmaya çalışmış, bunda da büyük ölçüde başarılı olmuştur. Onun şiirde böyle bir dil kullanmasında, Fars dili ve edebiyatına olan hakimiyetinin büyük rol oynadığı bilinmektedir. Nef’î ve ortaya koyduğu eserler hakkında bugüne kadar çok fazla şey araştırılmış ve yazılmıştır. Bununla birlikte Nef’î gibi velûd bir şair hakkında daha birçok çalışmanın yapılacağı ortadadır. Bu çalışmamızda, Nef’î ve eserleri hakkında yapılan ilmi çalışmalar ile şaire ait bütün eserlerin yazma nüshaları bir sınıflandırmaya tabi tutularak bilim alemine sunulacaktır. Bu araştırmamız Nef’î ile ilgili çalışmaların daha çok hangi konularda yoğunlaştığını göstermesinin yanında nelerin hâlâ eksik olduğunu da ortaya çıkaracaktır. Ayrıca söz konusu çalışmamız ileride Nef’î hakkında araştırma yapacaklara kaynak bulma hususunda büyük yardım sağlayacaktır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Nef’î, bibliyografya, divan şiiri.
