Recently, literature on the political importance of corporate bodies and voluntary associations has transformed the understanding of the early modern Ottoman polity. Emphasis has shifted from the valorization of centralized institutions to understanding power as negotiated between the court and other stakeholders. My dissertation joins in this collective effort by way of studying preachers, and through them examining the negotiation of religious authority between the central administration and civic groups. I depict preachers as “mediating” religious power between the elite and the non-elite, and between the written and the oral cultures. I argue that the production of religious doctrine and authority took place at this intermediary space of encounter. This study of early modern Islam with reference to the frame of public sphere has two main implications. Firstly, I present a “preacher-political advisor” type in order to demonstrate that the critical potential of religion was preserved in a new guise. Secondly, I show that informal circles of education gained primacy in the seventeenth century, giving rise to the vernacularization of formal sciences. The close reading of the manuscript sources left by preachers and their pupils also constitutes the first systematic exploration of the intersection between orality and literacy, and an important contribution to the study of Ottoman popular culture. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------iii Table of Contents -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------iv Dedication ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------vii Acknowledgments ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------viii INTRODUCTION: “THE THEATER OF THE CITY:” DEFINING THE EARLY MODERN OTTOMAN PUBLIC SPHERE ------------------------------------------------------------ 1 I.

I will not conceal my pride and relief at finishing the very long engagement that is graduate school. I am genuinely grateful for this academic tradition of writing acknowledgments, since it has allowed me to realize how fortunate I have been. My conversion to the historian’s path, which took place nearly a decade ago, took place not because of a dream but because of a dream diary. Reading Cemal Kafadar’s brilliant introduction to the dream logs of a sixteenth century Sufi woman changed my conception of what history could be. I am grateful for the many seminars and one-on-one conversations with Professor Kafadar, which have shaped not only my knowledge of the Ottoman world, but created in me an awareness of the many fine points of the historian’s craft. Working with Ann Blair has been a wonderful opportunity; she has been an unwavering source of support and guidance. Finding my way and staying on it would have been much more of a challenge had it not been for her advice. Her responsible, diligent scholarship and her openness to a multitude of fields is one I would like to emulate in my future academic life. Dana Sajdi has been a life saver, always providing the right insight at the right juncture. It has been a privilege to work closely with her, a scholar whose work I have always admired both in content and in style. I have also learned a great deal from working with Khaled al-Rouayheb, not only about Islamic thought but also about

  • Generating a New Image for Cultural Heritage: Model for Preserving the Typical Image of the Traditional Turkish Coffeehouse
    Sustainability Today 401 Generating a new image for cultural heritage: model for preserving the typical image of the traditional Turkish coffeehouse N. Ayalp & A. Müge Bozday TOBB University, Turkey Abstract The aim of the study is to create a model for a reusing a specific cultural setting. Traditional Turkish coffeehouses are selected as a traditional environment. The coffeehouse, which has been used in Turkey since the sixteenth century, is one of the most significant places in the country’s cultural heritage. Coffeehouses are one of the public spaces that represent the place identity of Turkish culture. During the Ottoman period, with their frequent use, people helped these places gain place identities. Moreover, not just the space but the ways in which people become socialized represent an intangible part of our cultural heritage. However, previous studies indicate that this cultural value has not been sufficiently transferred to the present day. This study identifies the traditional Turkish coffeehouse as contributing to both tangible and intangible cultural heritage and generates a model for interpreting the coffeehouse in terms of a contemporary place identity. In order to do this, the concept of place, place identity, and social identity is discussed. Turkish coffeehouses are analyzed to identify and their typical spatial elements. In the conclusion, a model for preserving the typical image of the traditional Turkish coffeehouse is presented. Keywords: traditional Turkish coffeehouses, place, place identity, social identity, typical elements in Turkish coffeehouses’ interiors. 1 Introduction: discussion of Turkish coffeehouses within a conceptual framework In order to safeguard a place that has a cultural value, it is not sufficient to discuss just its material attributes.

  • CONTEMPORARY CHINA: a BOOK LIST (Winter 1999 — FIRST ON-LINE EDITION, MS Word, L&R Margins 0.9") by Lynn White
    PRINCETON UNIVERSITY: Woodrow Wilson School, Politics Department, East Asian Studies Program CONTEMPORARY CHINA: A BOOK LIST (Winter 1999 — FIRST ON-LINE EDITION, MS Word, L&R margins 0.9") by Lynn White This list of items in English has several purposes: --to help advise students' course essays, junior papers, policy workshops, and senior theses about contemporary China; --to supplement the required reading lists of the seminars WWS 576a/Pol. 536 on "Chinese Development" and Pol. 535 on "Chinese Politics," as well as the undergraduate lecture course, Pol. 362; --to provide graduate students with a list that can help their study for comprehensive exams in Chinese politics; a few of the compiler's favorite books are starred on the list, but not too much should be made of this, because some such books may be too old for students' purposes or the subjects may not be central to present interests; --to supplement a bibliography of all Asian serials in the Princeton Libraries that was compiled long ago by Frances Chen and Maureen Donovan. Students with specific research topics should definitely meet Laird Klingler, who is WWS Librarian and the world's most constructive wizard. This list cannot cover articles, but computer databases can. Rosemary Little and Mary George at Firestone are also enormously helpful. Especially for materials in Chinese, so is Martin Heijdra in Gest Library (Palmer Hall; enter up the staircase near the "hyphen" with Jones Hall). Other local resources are at institutes run by Chen Yizi and Liu Binyan (for current numbers, ask at EAS, 8-4276). Professional bibliographers are the most neglected major academic resource at Princeton.

Songs of political parties and movements: Mau Mau hymns; Guinea R.D.A. songs; Northern Rhodesian party songs. It has been well said that oral poetry takes the place of newspapers among non-literate peoples. Songs can be used to report and comment on current affairs, for political pressure, for propaganda, and to reflect and mould public opinion. This political and topical function can be an aspect of many of the types of poetry already discussed—work songs, lyric, praise poetry, even at times something as simple as a lullaby—but it is singled out for special discussion in this chapter. It is of particular importance to draw attention to this and to give a number of examples because of the common tendency in studies of African verbal art to concentrate mainly on the ‘traditional’—whether in romanticizing or in deprecating tone—and to overlook its topical functions, especially its significance in contemporary situations. There have been a few admirable exceptions to this attitude to African oral literature, notably Tracey and others associated with the African Music Society (see esp.

  • A Study on the Theory of God's Science of Maturidi School Cunping
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 328 4th International Conference on Humanities Science and Society Development (ICHSSD 2019) A Study On the Theory of God's Science of Maturidi School Cunping Yun School of Foreign Language, Northwest Minzu University, Lanzhou, Gansu, China, 730050 [email protected] Keywords: Islamic theology, The science of God, Maturidi school Abstract: Maturidi school is one of the two pillars of Sunni sect in Islamic theology. In the heated debate on Islamic dogmatics, Maturidi school unswervingly protected the authority of the Book and the reason and became the one of the founders of the Sunni theology. Maturidi school successfully applied dialectical principles to ensure the supremacy of the Scriptures and at the same time upheld the role of the reason. They maintained a more rational and tolerant attitude toward many issues, and it is called "Moderatism"by the Sunni scholars. The thought of Maturidi school spread all over Central Asian countries, Afghanistan, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Rome, Persian, Turkey, Egypt and China ,etc.. In today's globalized and diversified international situation, it is of great significance to enhance the study of Maturidi school's theological thought, especially it's theory of God's Science in order to promote ideological and cultural exchanges between our country and Muslim world and to enhance the mutual understanding. 1. Introduction Muslims began to argue about the fundamental principles of Islamic belief after the Prophet passed away. And some muslim scholars even touched upon the theological questions like the essence, attributes of Allah and the relationship between human and the universe in the influence of foreign cultures of Greece, Persia and Syria, and then ＂Ilm El-Kalam＂(Islamic theology) came into being.

  • Why Muslims Become Instruments of Terror?
    Kader e-ISSN: 2602-2710 Cilt: 16, Sayı: 2, 2018, ss. 229-240 Volume: 16, Issue: 2, 2018, pp. 229-240 WHY MUSLIMS BECOME INSTRUMENTS OF TERROR? Ramazan BİÇER Prof. Dr., Sakarya Üniversitesi İlahiyat Fakültesi, Sakarya Professor Doctor, Sakarya University Faculty of Theology, Sakarya [email protected] orcid.org/0000-0003-1501-2103 Abstract The Thesis states Global Terrorism, is a global project that has no direct place or time is an interesting approach. Although the reason of terrorism has been come down to difference between civilizations and religions; that is not the case. Another reason which is argued is that Muslims are unable to integrate into Western societies. However this is not unique to Muslims, it is also a problem for non- Muslim immigrants. Another problem is whether Islam is compatible with democracy or not. Most of the Islamic countries have despotic and oppressive regimes which are economically, politically and socially unstable. However this has nothing to do with Islam. Hundreds years of colonization did not let democratic values and institutions to develop in these countries. Lack of non-governmental organizations in Islamic world; caused these countries to become either a secular despotic or an Islamic oppressive regime. Both situations create an environment for radical groups to exist. To eradicate terrorism, one has to look for its political and economical reasons. The despotic regimes in Islamic countries have to be removed and some Western countries should change their mentality while dealing with terrorism. Although Muslims were blamed for being terrorists; they are the ones who get more damage from terrorism.

  • The Concept of Generosity in Rumi's Mathnawi: an Analysis
    THE CONCEPT OF GENEROSITY IN RUMI’S MATHNAWI: AN ANALYSIS BY SUZANA SUHAILAWATY MD. SIDEK A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Islamic and Other Civilization) International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilization International Islamic University Malaysia JULY 2015 ABSTRACT This work examines generosity in the Mathnawi of Maulana Rumi. The thesis identifies fifteen stories not related directly to generosity in the Mathnawi. These were categorized into three groups: acts which are devoid of any generosity, sincere generosity, insincere generosity. These are mainly stories involving companions, saints and sometimes fables. The stories pertaining to the Prophet were used differently by Rumi. In some instances, he changed the gender of the person from that in the hadith and embellishes the stories with his own story. There are instances in which he takes two separate hadiths and make them one. In all cases, Rumi changes the scenario to make his own. The extensive change to the original does not allow us to call them hadith anymore. This dissertation shows that Rumi has spared no opportunity to show that generosity is extremely important in all its form and without being generous, one cannot reach the highest station in life. This is because the thesis shows that in Islam it does not only involve giving, but giving the best we have. ii ملخص البحث يقدم هذا البحث دراسة ملوضوع الكرم يف مثنوي موﻻنا جﻻل الدين الرومي. البحث يتناول مخسة عشر قصة من املثنوي ﻻ ترتبط بالكرم بشكل مباشر. مت تقسيم هذه القصص يف ثﻻث جمموعات: اﻷفعال اليت ختلو من الكرم، والكرم بإخﻻص والكرم بغري إخﻻص.
