BABUR NAMA Journal of Emperor Babur
RESOURCES BOOK REVIEW ESSAYS BABUR NAMA Journal of Emperor Babur TRANSLATED FROM TURKISH By ANNETTE SUSANNAH BEVERIDGE NEW DELHI: PENGUIN BOOKS, 2006 385 PAGES, ISBN: 978-0144001491, PAPERBACK Reviewed by Laxman D. Satya riginally written in Turkish by Emperor Babur (1483–1530) Oand translated into Persian by his grandson, Emperor Akbar (1556– 1605), Babur Nama, Journal of Emperor Babur is now available in English, com- plete with maps, tables of the family tree, glossary, list of main characters, an Is- lamic calendar, Babur’s daily prayer, and endnotes that are not too overbearing. Dilip Hiro has done a marvelous job of editing this classic of the autobiographical account of the founder of the Mughal Empire in India that lasted from 1526–1707. It was written in an elab- orate style as a journal or daily diary and records the events in his life and times. From page one, it is obvious that Babur was a highly cultured in- dividual with a meticulous eye for recording details through observa- tion. Even though he was from an elite class of rulers and sultans, in these memoirs he records the lives of ordinary folks like soldiers, ac- robats, musicians, singers, wine drinkers, maajun eaters, weavers, water carriers, lamp keepers, boatmen, thieves, gatekeepers, rebels, dervishes (holy men), Sufis, scholars, youth, pastoralists, peasants, artisans, mer- chants, and traders. Strangely, there is very little mention of women and children other than his immediate family members—his mother, sister, aunts, or daughters—and they are always mentioned with great respect and reverence. Babur was a religious person who meticulously observed prayers and fasting during Ramadan. -

This research deals with the reason of the delay in the advent of Sufism in Azerbaijan compared with other regions in a descriptive analytic method. Studies show that the deficiency of conqueror Arabs, loyalty of ethnic people to Iranian religion and the influence of theosophical beliefs such as heart's eye, meeting the right, relation between body and soul and cross evidences in heart had important effects on ideas and thoughts of Azerbaijan's first Sufis such as Ebn-e-Yazdanyar. Investigating Arab victories and conducting case studies on early Sufis' thoughts and ideas, the author attains considerable results via this research. Keywords: Sufism, Azerbaijan, Zarathustra, Ebn-e-Yazdanyar, Islam Introduction Azerbaijan territory2 with its unique geography and history, was the cultural center of Iran for many years in Sasanian era and was very important for Zarathustra religion and Magi class. 1 PhD, Faculty of Science, Islamic Azad University, Urmia Branch,WestAzarbayjan, Iran. -

City Walls and Nomads: Archaeological Parallels in the Post-Hellenistic and Medieval Periods 1
_________________________________________________ ART-SANAT 2014/1 _________________________________________________ CITY WALLS AND NOMADS: ARCHAEOLOGICAL PARALLELS IN THE POST-HELLENISTIC AND MEDIEVAL PERIODS 1 KAZİM ABDULLAEV Dr., Mimar Sinan Güzel Sanatlar Üniversitesi Taşınabilir Kültür Varlıklarını Koruma ve Onarım Yüksekokulu [email protected] ABSTRACT Article concerns one of the weakly studied topics in Central Asian archaeology specifically category of the sites with waste free space between the fortification wall and citadel in the center. Usually on this space there no traces of any permanent buildings. Author suggests seeing in this type the transitional form from nomadic type of city with yurts located inside the walls around the central construction (yurt or palace of the leader) to the sedentary form. In the article there are examples of these sites in Central Asia of ancient and medieval periods. Keywords: Central Asia, archaeology, nomad, city walls, settlement, sedentary ŞEHİR DUVARLARI VE GÖÇEBELER: HELLENİSTİK ÇAĞ SONRASI VE ORTA ÇAĞ DÖNEMLERİNDE ARKEOLOJİK PARALELLER ÖZET Makale, Orta Asya arkeolojisinde az incelenmiş olan merkezdeki kale ile şehir suru arasında geniş boş alan bulunan yerleşimleri ele alır. Genellikle bu alanda kalıcı binaların izlerine rastlanmaz. Yazar bu tipte, sur içinde merkezi yapının (yurt veya liderin sarayı) etrafında yurtların yer aldığı göçebe şehir biçiminden yerleşik biçime geçişin görüldüğünü öne sürer. Makalede, Antik Çağ ve Orta Çağ dönemlerinde Orta Asya’daki bu yerleşim örneklerinden bahsedilmektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Orta Asya, arkeoloji, göçebe, şehir duvarları, yerleşim, yerleşik. 1 I express my deep gratitude to O. Grabar and J.

Congressional Testimony
Congressional Testimony “U.S. Counterterrorism Efforts in Syria: A Winning Strategy?” Thomas Joscelyn Senior Fellow, Foundation for Defense of Democracies Senior Editor, The Long War Journal Hearing before House Committee on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Terrorism, Nonproliferation, and Trade Washington, DC September 29, 2015 ● ● 1726 M Street NW Suite 700 Washington, DC 20036 1 Chairman Poe, Ranking Member Keating, and other members of the committee, thank you for inviting me here today to speak about America’s counterterrorism efforts in Syria. The war in Syria is exceedingly complex, with multiple actors fighting one another on the ground and foreign powers supporting their preferred proxies. Iran and Hezbollah are backing Bashar al Assad’s regime, which is also now receiving increased assistance from Russia. The Islamic State (often referred to by the acronyms ISIS and ISIL) retains control over a significant amount of Syrian territory. Despite some setbacks at the hands of the U.S.-led air coalition and Kurdish ground forces earlier this year in northern Syria, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi’s organization has not suffered anything close to a knockout blow thus far. Sunni jihadists, led by Al Nusrah Front and its closest allies, are opposed to both the Islamic State and the Assad regime. Unfortunately, they have been the most effective anti-Assad forces for some time, as could be seen in their stunning advances in the Idlib province earlier this year. Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and other nations are all sponsoring proxies in the fight. Given the complexity of the war in Syria, it should be obvious that there are no easy answers. -
