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. -

NOSTALGIA, EMOTIONALITY, and ETHNO-REGIONALISM in PONTIC PARAKATHI SINGING by IOANNIS TSEKOURAS DISSERTATION Submitted in Parti
NOSTALGIA, EMOTIONALITY, AND ETHNO-REGIONALISM IN PONTIC PARAKATHI SINGING BY IOANNIS TSEKOURAS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Donna A. Buchanan, Chair Professor Emeritus Thomas Turino Professor Gabriel Solis Professor Maria Todorova ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the multilayered connections between music, emotionality, social and cultural belonging, collective memory, and identity discourse. The ethnographic case study for the examination of all these relations and aspects is the Pontic muhabeti or parakathi. Parakathi refers to a practice of socialization and music making that is designated insider Pontic Greek. It concerns primarily Pontic Greeks or Pontians, the descendants of the 1922 refugees from Black Sea Turkey (Gr. Pontos), and their identity discourse of ethno-regionalism. Parakathi references nightlong sessions of friendly socialization, social drinking, and dialogical participatory singing that take place informally in coffee houses, taverns, and households. Parakathi performances are reputed for their strong Pontic aesthetics, traditional character, rich and aesthetically refined repertoire, and intense emotionality. Singing in parakathi performances emerges spontaneously from verbal socialization and emotional saturation. Singing is described as a confessional expression of deeply personal feelings -

BODIES IN THE MARGINS Refiguring the Rebetika as Literature Sophia Schlesinger Faculty Advisor: Andrea Kaston-Tange Macalester English Department Submitted April 25th, 2020 Abstract This thesis engages a literary analysis of a corpus of songs and recordings known as the rebetika (sing. rebetiko), which prospered in the port districts of major cities throughout the Aegean in the early 20th century. Engaging the rebetika as literary texts, I argue, helps us understand how they have functioned as a kind of pressure point on the borders between nation and Other. Without making unproveable biographical claims about the motives of the music progenitors, I examine why so many have reached for the rebetika as texts with which to articulate various political and cultural desires. Using a multidisciplinary theoretical framework that includes Elaine Scarry, Stuart Hall, Edward Said, Mark C. -

UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE the Greek Body in Crisis: Contemporary Dance As a Site of Negotiating and Restructuring Natio
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE The Greek Body in Crisis: Contemporary Dance as a Site of Negotiating and Restructuring National Identity in the Era of Precarity A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Critical Dance Studies by Natalie Zervou June 2015 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Marta Elena Savigliano, Chairperson Dr. Linda J. Tomko Dr. Anthea Kraut Copyright Natalie Zervou 2015 The Dissertation of Natalie Zervou is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intensive research, even though I have been engaging with this topic and the questions discussed here long before that. Having been born in Greece, and having lived there till my early twenties, it is the place that holds all my childhood memories, my first encounters with dance, my friends, and my family. From a very early age I remember how I always used to say that I wanted to study dance and then move to the US to pursue my dream. Back then I was not sure what that dream was, other than leaving Greece, where I often felt like I did not belong. Being here now, in the US, I think I found it and I must admit that when I first begun my pursuit in graduate studies in dance, I was very hesitant to engage in research concerning Greece. It made me uncomfortable, because it was too personal. Looking back now, I am extremely grateful to all the people who in their way pushed me towards this direction and assisted me in unpacking all the complexities of this project and interrogating my initial personal resistance to it. -

500 Years of Karagöz
MÓIN-MÓIN 234 500 years of Karagöz Cengiz Özek Istanbul Karagoz Puppet Foundation Abstract: This article is a reflection about Turkish Shadow Theatre, Karagöz Theatre. It presents Karagöz techniques; the structure of Karagöz plays and the main characters, providing the reader with a clear view of Karagöz Shadow Theatre, an art form that th s will complete its 500 birthday in 2017. Keywords: Turkish shadow theatre. Karagöz theatre. Theatre History. History Turkish shadow play, also called Karagöz, is an important cultural heritage. It could be described as a micro cosmos, a cross-section of Ottoman culture and social structure combined into a harmonious and many-faceted totality. As to the question of where, how and when the shadow play came to Turkey, this tradition does not exist in Central Asia and Iran, so it cannot have arrived from there. It’s known that shadow play was intro- duced to Turkey from Egypt in the l6th century when there is indisput- able evidence of its existence here. Evidence of its introduction from Egypt is equally incontrovertible, provided by a history of Egypt entitled Bedayiü’z-zuhbur fi vekaayiü’d-dühur by the Arab writer Mehmed b. Ahmad b. lyasü’l-Hanefi.

The shadow player at the palace on the island of Rode in the Nile at Cize re-enacted the hanging of Tumanbay at the Züveyle Gate, including the fact that the rope snapped twice in the process. -
Greek Art and Culture: Origins and Influences International Conference 20-21 May 2007 Abstracts
Greek Art and Culture: Origins and Influences International conference 20-21 May 2007 Abstracts Michele Bacci University of Siena, Italy Byzantine Art and Identity: Greek Painters Working for Latin and Non- Orthodox Donors in Frankish Famagusta The present paper deals with the description and interpretation of some hitherto neglected 14th century mural paintings in Famagusta, which were executed by artists from the Byzantine mainland within both Orthodox and non-Orthodox churches. My aim is to emphasize the different iconographic solutions and methods of work used by these painters in order to satisfy their donors’ requests, and to make some general remarks about the relationship between ‘style’ and the shaping of cultural identity. Fabio Barry University of St. Andrews, Scotland Byzantine Architecture and the Idea of the Meadow Byzantine ekphraseis abound in descriptions of marble floors, revetments and even figurative paintings as fields of flowers or meadows. This topos can be traced back at least as far as Lucian, for whom the image of the meadow subsumed the virtue of variety in artistic production. In Byzantine ekphraseis of the marble-clad, sacral interior, the idea of the meadow continued to prosper but in several registers: as paradisical; as geological (marbles were organic and rooted); and as a base image for an art that was as creative and multifarious as God’s Creation. The idea of the meadow also opened the door to a dialectic between “natural art and artful nature,” and diversity and unity, thereby leading the senses analogically back to the mind of the Creator Himself. Rozmeri Basic The University of Oklahoma, USA Jeremias Palladas and the Post-Byzantine Mannerism This paper focuses on selected works of 17 th century iconographer Jeremias Palladas from Crete in an attempt to define the style that can be considered as the post-Byzantine Mannerism.
