‎HARID FERAI.‎

‎Kus-Hasanlar, Nâm-i diger Hasan-Bulliler. Kibris'in eskiyasi.‎

‎Fine English Paperback. Pbo. Fine+. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. Color ills. 162 p. History and biography of a Cypriot bandit. Under Ottoman rule, in 1571 was introduced the "Millet" system in Cyprus: members of different religions were considered a single "Millet" 'nation' and each Millet had its own religious and educational institutions as well as civil law; the result could be considered self-government (Çevikel 1997). When Cyprus became under the British rule in 1878, the Millet system was maintained with some modifications. It was in these circumstances that the events underlying the epic of the Hasanbullis took place (Gürkan NA; Ismailoglu NA): Turkish Cypriot brothers nicknamed Bulli hid in the mountains in 1887-1888 and 1894-1896 as they believed they were unjustly accused and sentenced. During that time they committed several crimes. Despite this, both Turkish and Greek Cypriots regarded the Hasanbulli brothers positively as people fighting against the regime. Ten to fifteen years later, two epics in Turkish and Greek, plus various publications and works of art based on the event were written (see e.g. Kareklas 1938; Machlouzarides 1973; Gelen 1973; Ismailoglu; Islamoglu 1994; Serdar 1986; Yorgancioglu 1980: 100-102; Sayil 1988: 18; Fedai 1993: 1-7; Gökçeoglu 1993; Gürkan NA; Lyssarides 1995: 11; Bozkurt 1996: 59-64; 1998; Cahit 1997; Sadikoglu 1999: 34; 2000: 34). In these works the events were treated differently: Greek Cypriots depict the Hasanbullis as bandits while the Turkish appear to be brave heroes who rose against the British rule. The current article aims to analyse and discuss differences between these two approaches. THE CASE OF HASANBULLIS In May 1887, at a small village in the impoverished region of Paphos, where the Turks and Greeks live in mixed communities, a Turkish youngster Hasan Ahmet Bulli is unjustly accused of theft. False witnesses as well as his own quickness (which lead him to be nicknamed Bulli, 'bird' in Greek) play a role in the accusation. Once Hasan Ahmet Bulli is convicted, he arms himself and takes to the mountains. He wanders about in the mountains for 18 months, committing murders and fighting with the police. He is caught when he is sheltering at a house during a spell of malaria. He is sentenced to death but his punishment is then converted to life imprisonment. Six years later, in 1894, Ahmet Hasan Bulli's brothers Kaymakam and Hüseyin Ahmet Bulli take to the mountains when accused of committing a murder after one Greek Cypriot is killed in a Turkish- Greek fight over a woman. With others joining them, they form a powerful gang and continue their activities at the mountains until 1896. In the meantime, the elder brother Hasan escapes from prison to join his brothers, but he is shot dead. In 1896, one of the brothers, Hüseyin is killed at a confrontation with the police; Mehmet and other members of the gang are captured and executed by hanging. The Hasanbullis case considerably preoccupied the British administration in Cyprus and it eventually became a matter of prestige. It is obvious that both the Turkish and the Greek in Cyprus saw Hasanbullis as people who rose against the British administration: despite the fact that the British Colonial Regime offered rewards for their capture and enacted special legislation for it, and despite the security troops pursuing them and the use of hired informers, the Hasanbullis managed to live at the mountains for a long time. Unquestionably this was possible only thanks to people who protected, hid, supported, fed, and informed them of any danger.

Özerk toplumsal girisimlerin araci olarak derneklerin ortaya çikisi, özellikle geç dönem Osmanli tarihinin en ilgi çekici konularindan biridir. Elinizdeki çalisma, Osmanli Imparatorlugu'ndaki Rum-Ortodoks toplulugun en taninmis ve uzun ömürlü cemiyetlerinden birini, Dersaadet Rum Cemiyet-i Edebiyesi'ni konu ediniyor. Kitap, Osmanli Rum orta sinifinin 19. yüzyilin ikinci yarisinda hizla çogalan cemiyetler vasitasiyla kendi kimligini insa süreci üzerine egiliyor. Cemiyetleri, kolektif deneyimi anlamlandiran ve bilince dönüstüren bir "egitimli topluluk" olarak tanimlayan Eksertzoglou, Cemiyet-i Edebiye'nin düzenledigi müsabaka ve konferans gibi etkinlikleri inceleyerek, cemiyetin olusturdugu söyleme odaklaniyor; bu söylemin yükselen Yunan milliyetçiligiyle hangi noktalarda iliskilendiginin izlerini sürmeye çalisiyor. Cemiyetleri baglantili olduklari toplumsal tabakalarin basit birer yansimasi olarak ele almaktan kaçinan yazar, Rum burjuva katmanlarin hayirseverlik ve egitim gibi etkinlik alanlarindaki inisyatiflerinin kendi cemaatleri ve Osmanli sistemindeki konumlari üzerindeki etkilerini irdeliyor. -- Osmanli tarihi Sosyal tarih Azinlik Rum cemaati‎

‎RESTRAINING RAGE The Ideology of Anger Control in Classical Antiquity‎

‎Very faint bump to 1 corner else book is fine. DJ has light edgewear with a bit of creasing. ; The angry emotions, and the problems they presented, were an ancient Greek preoccupation from Homer to late antiquity. From the first lines of the Iliad to the church fathers of the fourth century A. D. , the control or elimination of rage was an obsessive concern. From the Greek world it passed to the Romans. Drawing on a wide range of ancient texts, and on recent work in anthropology and psychology, Restraining Rage explains the rise and persistence of this concern. W. V. Harris shows that the discourse of anger-control was of crucial importance in several different spheres, in politics--both republican and monarchical--in the family, and in the slave economy. He suggests that it played a special role in maintaining male domination over women. He explores the working out of these themes in Attic tragedy, in the great Greek historians, in Aristotle and the Hellenistic philosophers, and in many other kinds of texts. From the time of Plato onward, educated Greeks developed a strong conscious interest in their own psychic health. Emotional control was part of this. Harris offers a new theory to explain this interest, and a history of the anger-therapy that derived from it. He ends by suggesting some contemporary lessons that can be drawn from the Greek and Roman experience. ; 480 pages‎

‎Themis : A Study of the Social Origins of Greek Religion‎

‎With an Excursus on the Ritual Forms Preserved in Greek Tragedy By Gilbert Murray and a Chapter on the Origin of the Olympic Games By F. M. Cornford. Drawing upon a range of disciplines including anthropology, classical studies, archaeology and psychology, Jane Ellen Harrison's Themis pieced together the origins of early Greek religion. One of 'Britain's first female professional 'career academics'...and the ideas espoused on Greek rituals and myths in Themis remain influential today. This revolutionary study traces Themis back through history, as a matriarchal tribal goddess. Addressing areas including magic, sacrifice and the origin of the Olympic games, Harrison applies archaeological discoveries to the interpretation of Greek religion. Including a detailed preface and explanatory notes, this revised second edition of 1927 is described by Harrison as 'addressed not so much to the specialist as to the thinker generally'. xxv.559p.

‎APULEIUS A Latin Sophist‎

‎Bottom corner is very lightly bumped. Else very light shelfwear to book. Scholar's name to DJ flap (R. E. Fantham). DJ has very minor shelfwear. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 281 pages; This book is a response to the literary pleasures and scholarly problems of reading the texts of Apuleius, most famous for his novel Metamorphoses or Golden Ass. Living in second-century North Africa, Apuleius was more than an author of fiction; he was a consummate orator and professional intellectual, Platonist philosopher, extraordinary stylist, relentless self-promoter, and versatile author of a remarkably diverse body of work, much of which is lost to us. This book is written for those able to read Apuleius in Latin, and Apuleian works are accordingly quoted without translation (although where they exist suitable translations have been indicated). In this book Dr Harrison has provided a literary handbook to all the works of Apuleius as well as the Metamorphoses, and has set his works against their intellectual background: not only Apuleius' career as a performing intellectual, a sophist, in second-century Roman North Africa, but also the larger contemporary framework of the Greek Second Sophistic. While focusing primarily on the texts as literature and literary-historical, the book also deals with Apuleius' works of didactic philosophy and his consequent connection with Middle Platonism.‎
