VLADIMIR FEDOROVICH MINORSKY, (Russian orientalist and diplomat), (1877-1966).
Autograph letter signed 'V. Minorsky', addressed to [Osman] Turan who was Turkish academician and historian, (1914-1978).
Very Good English Original autograph letter signed by Vladimir Fedorovich Minorsky, sent to Turkish professor and historian Osman Turan, (1914-1978), was born in year when World War I started. He had some bad conditions in his childhood. Being in Ankara in years when DTCF established was a great chance for him. He was trained by Fuat Köprülü. His studies in the first period were about pre-Islamic Turkish history. But his studies after he became associate-professor were about Seljukians. There isn't a better studying in this field yet than his studies. (Source: Osman Turan's Life (1914/17 - 1978) and Historiography, Tufantoz). Letter has 12 lines in front, and 4 lines on verso, in English completely. It has a plan of a library, probably in the UK which shows Trinity and Sydney Colleges, etc. Letter says: "Dear Dr. Turan, Very good. We shall be waiting for your on Friday. If you are not engaged come andd have lunch with us at 12.45. If you cannot come at 2.30 and I shall show you the Library. Looking forward to meeting you. Yours sinccerely, V. Minorsky'. "When you come to No 9 push the door in front of you...". Repaired margins. Minorsky was a Russian Orientalist best known for his contributions to the study of Persian and Kurdish history, geography, literature, and culture. Minorsky was born in Korcheva, in the Konakovsky District of the Russian oblast of Tver, northwest of Moscow on the upper Volga River, a town now submerged beneath the Ivankovo Reservoir. There he was a gold medallist of the Fourth Grammar School. In 1896 he entered Moscow University to study law, graduating in 1900, then entered the Lazarev Institute of Oriental Languages where he spent 3 years preparing for a diplomatic career. He made his first trip to Iran in 1902, where he collected material on the Ahl-e Haqq. In 1903 he entered the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, serving 1904-1908 in Persia (now Iran), first in the Tabriz Consulate-General and then the Tehran Legation, and 1908-1912 in Saint Petersburg and Tashkent. In 1911, jointly the Four-Power (British, Russian, Turkish, and Persian) Commission, he carried out a mission in North-Western Persia to delimit the Turko-Persian border, and also published a monograph on the Ahl-i ?aqq religion for which he was awarded the Gold Medal of the Ethnography Section of the Imperial Society of Natural Sciences in Moscow. One of the most important Kurdish manuscripts he obtained during this period was The Forqan ol-Akhbar, by Hajj Nematollah, which he later wrote about in "Etudes sur les Ahl-I Haqq, I.", Revue de L'Histoire des Religions, tome XCVII, No. 1, Janvier 1928, pp. 90-105. His surveys in Iran also provided invaluable material for his 1915 work, Materialï dlya izucheniya vostoka (Materials for the Study of the East), published by the Imperial Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, St. Petersburg. From 1915-17 he served as Chargé d'affaires in the Russian Legation at Tehran. As the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 made problematic his return to Russia, in 1919 he moved to Paris where he worked at the Russian Embassy. There his expertise in Middle Eastern and Caucasian affairs was useful during the Versaille and Trianon peace settlements. In 1923 he began to lecture on Persian literature at the École nationale des langues orientales vivantes, where he subsequently taught Turkish and Islamic history. In 1930 he was named Oriental Secretary to the 1931 International Exhibition of Persian Art at Burlington House, London, and in 1932 was made a lecturer in Persian at London's School of Oriental Studies. In 1933 he became Reader in Persian Literature and History, University of London; Professor of Persian in 1937; and in 1944 retired. During World War II, SOAS had evacuated to Christ's College, University of Cambridge, and there the Minorskys retired apart from a year (1948-49) at Fuad University, Cairo. In 1934 Minorsky was one of the distinguished participants in the Ferdowsi Millenary Celebration in Tehran. Minorsky received n

YILDIZ MORAN, (The first female Turkish photographer), (1932-1995).
[FIRST FEMALE PHOTOGRAPHER OF TURKEY] [Original b/w unnamed photograph: Anatolian girl behind the sieves signed by Yildiz Moran].
Very Good Turkish Original silver gelatin photographic print mounted on cardboard. 53x42 cm (Photo size: 38x30 cm). Signed by Yildiz Moran. Yildiz (Vahid) Moran Arun was born on 24 July 1932, in Istanbul. She is the youngest of three children born to Nemide Moran and Ahmet Vahid Moran. Her father, Ahmet Vahid Moran, was a military officer who served in important positions both at home and abroad. He was the writer of Turkey's very first English-Turkish dictionary printed in Latin script in 1924. In 1950, Yildiz Moran quit her high school education during her final year at Robert College and, following the guidance of her uncle, the art historian Mazhar Sevket Ipsiroglu, went to Great Britain to study photography. After completing her education at Bloomsbury Technical College (1950-52) and Ealing Broadway Technical College, she began to work for John Vickers, the acclaimed photographer of The Old Vic. Moran combined her technical and theoretical knowledge with the practical experience she gained at the studio and stage shoots. She had the opportunity to meet famous artists of the time. The exhibitions and works she saw during her time in Great Britain helped her develop her photographic vision. Following her internship period, she began to make a living taking portrait and lobby photographs. She opened her first exhibition in 1953 in Cambridge. In 1954, she held four more exhibitions in London. All these shows attracted much attention. In her first exhibition, her entire collection was sold. She went traveling in Europe. After making a photo book on Spain and Portugal, she returned to Turkey in 1954. Between 1955 and 1962, she held five solo exhibitions. In 1963, she married Özdemir Asaf (Halit Özdemir Arun) and gave birth to three children in four years. She dedicated the rest of her life to her children. She opened her last exhibition in 1970, in Istanbul. After that, she only took part in retrospective exhibitions. She quit her professional photography career and began to work as a translator and dictionary writer. Between 1981 and 1987, she prepared the complete works of Özdemir Asaf for publication and translated some of his poetry and prose into English. In 1982, the Istanbul State Academy of Fine Arts Photography Institute awarded her with honorary membership on account of her contributions to the art of photography. Lyrically conveying a universal language through her own perspective, Moran became a school in herself with her "timeless" photographs. Turkey's first academically-trained photographer, Yildiz Moran is renowned for the new vision and aesthetic she introduced into photography and considered to be one of the best photographers of all time. Masterfully combining the tradition of the East with the aesthetic of the West, she left behind a legacy of black and white photographs beautifully composed to capture the world of light and shadow reflecting on people and lands. Considering the conditions in the world of photography in the 1950s and 1960s, it is a great achievement that she defined at the age of 20 her passion for photography as the foundation of her life, became the first academically-trained woman photographer in her country, acquired in-depth knowledge of the discipline and combined this knowledge with her talent and hard work. "The camera must be like an extension of your being so that it doesn't create an obstruction between you and your subjects. Anything that has poetry in it is the subject of photography. My only intention has always been to photograph what was universal while staying true to the concept embodied by my subject." Besides her portraits, landscapes, and abstract details, she is also known for her photographs reflecting the lives of the Anatolian people. As a woman photographer traveling in Anatolia, she accessed otherwise inaccessible environments, moments, and perspectives; and, with profound respect, she conveyed the purity of the people she met there and allowed us... (Biography: Merih Akogul).

Following her internship period, she began to make a living taking portrait and lobby photographs. She opened her first exhibition in 1953 in Cambridge. In 1954, she held four more exhibitions in London. All these shows attracted much attention. In her first exhibition, her entire collection was sold. She went traveling in Europe.
