  • In Search of Noah's Ark
    IN SEARCH OF NOAH'S ARK History does not care how events happen, it just takes the side of those who do great things and achieve great goals. At the time of writing, this scientific work I was guided by the only desire to enrich our history, to fill the gaps in it, to make it more open to understanding others, but not in any way to harm the established historical order in it. The constant desire to find God, to explain the inexplicable, the deification of the forces of nature, the desire to comprehend the incomprehensible at all times inherent in man. Studying the world around us, people learn more and more new things, and as a result of this there is a need to preserve and transmit information, whether it is in visual form, written or verbal in legends or myths. For example, in religious texts. "Noah did everything God commanded him to do. Upon completion of the construction, God told Noah to enter the ark with his sons and wife, and with the wives of his sons, and to bring also into the ark of all the animals in pairs, that they might live. And take for yourself of all food which is necessary themselves and for animals. Then the ark was shut down by God. Seven days later (in the second month, the seventeenth [27th-according to the translation of the Septuagint] day) the rain poured out on the earth, and the flood lasted forty days and forty nights, and the water multiplied, and lifted up the ark, and it rose above the earth and floated on the surface of the waters.

  • Jewish Communal Affairs
    Jewish Communal Affairs American Jews and the Middle East ISRAEL, IRAN, IRAQ In December 2006, AJC issued a pamphlet, 'Progressive' Jewish Thought and the New Anti-Semitism, by Prof. Alvin Rosenfeld of Indi- ana University, which pointed to specific examples of left-of-center Jew- ish critics of Israel who went so far as to question the right of the Jewish state to exist, a position that Rosenfeld considered anti-Semitic. Few knew of the publication until an article about it appeared in the New York Times on January 31, 2007, and then it became a focus of public dispute. A number of discrete issues were debated back and forth, such as in- accuracies in the Times characterization of AJC and of Rosenfeld's the- sis, whether Rosenfeld had erred in lumping together friendly critics of Israel with virulent foes, and whether, as some critics alleged, his real agenda was to push an alleged Jewish neoconservative alliance with the Bush administration and Christian conservatives in support of the Iraq war. The most serious charge was that 'Progressive' Jewish Thought was meant to censor all liberal criticism of Israel by tarnishing it with the label of anti-Semitism. Rosenfeld countered that he could not see how point- ing out the anti-Semitic implications of those who wanted Israel dis- mantled amounted to censorship, and suggested that those making the charge were themselves engaging in censorship by seeking to silence Is- rael's defenders. As 2007 began American Jewish groups were focused on a potentially nuclear Iran whose president made no secret of his intention to destroy Israel.

  • War and Pride: “Out Against the Occupation” and Queer Responses to the 2006 Lebanon War
    War and Pride: “Out Against the Occupation” and Queer Responses to the 2006 Lebanon War Natalie Kouri-Towe Department of Art History and Communication Studies McGill University, Montreal August 2008 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in Communication Studies © Natalie Kouri-Towe 2008 ABSTRACT In this thesis, I examine the role of queerness, solidarity and movement in anti-war activism relating to the 2006 Lebanon War. I investigate two events called “Out Against the Occupation” that were organized during the summer of 2006 in response to the war. These events emerged as a queer response to the context of various gay pride events held throughout the war that failed to develop an anti-war response to the war in Lebanon. These gay pride events include the Divers/Cité festival held annually in Montreal, the first World OutGames held in Montreal, the World Pride events held in Jerusalem and the Queeruption gathering held in Tel Aviv. I argue that we must rethink the role of movement, queerness and solidarity in order to understand how movements of resistance emerge. I do so by examining the role of subjectivity in how we come to move and orient ourselves towards others. RESUME Dans ce mémoire, j'examine le role de la sexualité queer, la solidarité et le movement dans les mobilisations contre le conflit israélo-libanais de 2006. J'examine deux événements appelés “Out Against the Occupation,” organisés durant l'été de 2006 en reaction à la guerre. Ces événements émergaient d'une réaction allosexuelle au contexte de plusieurs événements se rapportant à la fierté gaie qui ont été organisés durant la guerre au Liban.

  • Writing a Grammatical Commentary on Hafiz of Shiraz: a Sixteenth-Century Ottoman Scholar on the Divan of Hafiz
    Writing a Grammatical Commentary on Hafiz of Shiraz: A Sixteenth-century Ottoman Scholar on the Divan of Hafiz Murat Umut Inan A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Selim S. Kuru, Chair Walter G. Andrews Leroy F. Searle Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Program in Near and Middle Eastern Studies University of Washington Abstract Writing a Grammatical Commentary on Hafiz of Shiraz: A Sixteenth-century Ottoman Scholar on the Divan of Hafiz Murat Umut Inan Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Selim S. Kuru Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilization This dissertation explores the study and interpretation of the Divan (poetry collection) of Hafiz of Shiraz (d. ca. 1389), the most celebrated lyric poet of classical Persian, in the sixteenth- century Ottoman Empire and discusses the ways in which Hafiz’s Persian text was read, glossed and translated by Ottoman scholars. In terms of its scope, the dissertation focuses on a late sixteenth-century Ottoman Turkish commentary by Ahmed Sudi (d. ca. 1600), an Ottoman scholar of Arabic and Persian philology who is well-known primarily for his grammatical commentaries on Persian classics. The main concern of the dissertation is to explore and discuss the ways in which Sudi’s grammatical commentary on Hafiz’s Divan departs from the mystical/allegorical commentaries written by his predecessors Muslihiddin Süruri (d. 1561), an Ottoman Naqshbandi scholar renowned for his mystical commentaries on Persian classics, and Şem‘ullah Şem‘i (d. 1603), an Ottoman scholar affiliated with the Mavlavi order and the author of a number of allegorical/mystical commentaries on Persian classics.
