‎Nomads in the Ottoman Empire.= Osmanli döneminde konar-göçerler.‎

‎New English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English and Turkish. 310 p., ills. Nomads in the Ottoman Empire.= Osmanli döneminde konar-göçerler. The Turks migrated originally from Central Asia to Anatolia between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. Most of them were sedentary communities. However, a significant portion was nomads, called Oghuz, or Türkmen, at that time. These nomads used to move between regions identified as summer pasturages and winter quarters in order to graze their animals. Therefore, their lifestyle was substantially different from sedentary life. Even after Anatolia was brought under Ottoman rule by the end of the first quarter of the 16th century, they continued their traditional lifestyle. During the Ottoman conquests, these nomads migrated to the Balkans in accordance with the policy pursued by the state. The nomads in the Balkans were generally organized as military units. During the Ottoman period the nomads were known by the names of Türkmen and Yörük or Yürük. These names were generally used to describe their way of life, rather than their ethnic origin. However, these terms were often sed interchangeably. At the same time, various other words were used for the nomads, such as 'Konar-göçer', 'Göçebe', 'Göçer-yörük', 'Göçerler', and 'Göçer-evliler'. The most common one among these was 'Konar-göçer'. All of these words are found in Ottoman archival documents and carry only the meaning of 'nomad'. Geographically, the nomads of the Ottoman period spread from Anatolia to the Balkans and formed an important portion of the Ottoman population. Despite this fact, research remains insufficient regarding the nomadic peoples. The reason for this has been keener isterest by historians in Turkey concerning the foundation of the Turkish Republic and political and administrative issues rather than nomadism. Research in Ottoman social history was not popular among these historians. However, as research on Ottoman social history grew, so did interest in nomadic populations.‎

Preface by Engin Akyürek. Texts by Üzeyir Altekin, Nisa Semiz. "The 28-metre-long depiction of Marmara Sea Walls, rendered in watercolour by the Istanbulite Chief Engineer Dimtriadis Effendy in 1875, has been preserved at he Istanbul Archaeological Museums since it was donated to Müze-i Hümâyûn (The Imperial Museum) in 1917. This publication was prepared in order to introduce this important document, which has been available to be studied by scholars, to a wider audience. Also within the scope of the project, to be able to allow the preservation of the original document, a one to one scale copy of the scroll was produced and presented to the Museum.". Dimitriadis Efendi is the son of Dimitri Efendi ofthe Ottoman Greeks. He studied at the Greek school in Beyoglu and later at the French Missionary Schools and received lessonsin mathematics from a private teacher. He was speaking Turkish, and able to read and write in French and Greek. In 1871, he joined the Greek Philosophical Syllogos of Constantinople. He acted as a permanent member of the Archaeological Committee of the Society between 1871 and 1876, and as a member of the Science Committee of the Society from 1876 to 1882. He gave lectures on Practical Geometry, Applied Geometry, and Applied Engineering. On 31 May, 1882, he was appointed as the Umûr-u Nâfia Mühendisi of the Province of Thessaloniki. In consideration of his services, he was later decorated with the Fourth class of the Order of Medjidie on 22 September 1890 and to being promoted to the rank of assistant chief engineer, he was also appointed as the structural ccommissioner of waterworks. His Marmara Sea Walls is a drawing and watercolour on paper, with a size of 47,7x2800 cm. The lower, righthand corner bears the signature of G. A. Demetriades, dated 1875. The scroll contains the Marmara Sea façade of the Istanbul Walls, starting from the Seraglio Point and reaching all the way to the section located just before Yedikule. It could be observed that the names of some doors, mosques, pavilions, and piers were marked on the scroll with a pencil, sometimes in Arabic and at other times in Latin letters. The expressions written in pencil on certain parts of the walls and bastions...".

‎DOKTOR FRIÇ [FRITSCH], [sic. NACI ISMAIL PELISTER also known as HABIL ADEM], (1893-1949), [AND COMMISSION].‎

‎[EARLY ANTI-KURDISH PROPAGANDA BY THE YOUNG TURKS] Kürdler: Siyasi ve içtimai tedkikat. [i.e. Kurds: A politic and social examination].‎

‎Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In contemporary black cloth. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). Occasionally minor stains and fading on pages. Otherwise a good copy. 384 p. It is a rare book written after the Constitutional Monarchy at the request of the Unionists to make propaganda about Kurds. It is one of the early detached texts about Kurds written in the Ottoman period. Upon the request of the Ittihad ve Terakki [i.e. Union and Progress] leaders, he began to work in 1912 for the newly established National Security Organization (Teskilât-i Mahsusa). He then continued his intelligence work with the IAMM and AMMU, in the name of which he did his fieldwork on the Anatolian Kurds and Turcoman (Turkmen) tribes. Habil Adem's (his pseudonym means in English 'Abel Adam') writing reflect -even more openly than those of his colleague Baha Said- the unionist ambition to collect the data considered necessary for its politics of social and demographic engineering, such as information on basic demographic realities, as well as social and cultural aspects. The obvious aim of this publication was to create public knowledge favorable to the nationalization project. His book on the Kurds, printed in 1918, immediately after WW 1, under the pseudonym of a fictitious German orientalist (Dr. Friç), allegedly only translated by Habil Adem, elaborated on a thesis that would gain leverage in the early Turkish Republic and become very prominent in the 1930s, namely that the Kurds were actually Turks and the Kurdish as an independent language did not exist. In the book's section on the religion of the Kurds, he makes two distinctions such as Muslim and non-Muslim Kurds and Sunni and Shiite Muslim Kurds. (Source: Writing Religion: The Making of Turkish Alevi Islam; Dressler, Marcus). Pelister worked in the translation office of the General Directorate of Security since 1908 and in the Turkmen Branch of the General Directorate of Tribes and Immigrants from 1913, and he personally assigned him to Talat Pasha, (1874-1921). He was very good at speaking English, German, and French languages, thus, he was involved in researches related to the Kurdish and Turkmen tribes with some delegations in Ottoman Turkey in Asia. The German original of this book never existed, neither did Dr. Fritsch from the Berlin Academy of Science. Years later, Celadet Bedirxan, a Kurdish intellectual, explained the mistakes that Naci Ismail made intentionally or unknowingly on the Kurdish culture, population, history, folklore, and language, with the letters he wrote to Mustafa Kemal and drew Mustafa Kemal's attention. This book was written probably by a commission with corrigenda and footnotes by Pelister. The book generally focuses on the historical geography of the Kurds. There is an effort to Turkify in the part that talks about the origins of the Kurds. In the introduction, detailed information about Iranian and Iraqi Kurds is given and Sharafnâma is criticized. Although detailed information is available on many Kurdish tribes (Leks, Sividis, Arukhs, etc) in Anatolia and Mesopotamia, most of these are dubious.
