Tanburi Küçük Artin: A musical treatise of the Eighteenth Century.
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 204 p. Second Edition. "This book is an in-depth examination of Tanburi Kucuk Artin 's unique work written in Turkish with Armenian characters on the practical theory of the Ottoman art music of the eighteenth century. A court musician to Sultan Mahmud I and also to Nadir Shah of Iran, the Armenian musician Artin has traveled from Istanbul to India gathering along the way an abundance of musical knowledge and colorful anecdotes from vast regions. Placed at midway between Dimitrie Cantemir and Abdulbaki Dede, he occupies a privileged position in the history of Turkish Music as an original writer and inventive musician and tanbur teacher. The presentation in this inquisitive study by Eugenia Popescu-Judetz is intended for both musicians and musicologists. It includes Artin's original text composed in Turkish with notational examples, a comprehensive commentary and insightful analysis, and is completed with a series of comparative tables.".

Beyond the glory of the Sultans: Cantemir's view of the Turks.
New English Original bdg. HC. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 200 p., b/w and color ills. "Prince Dimitrie Cantemir (1673-1723) combined a multitude of talents in a complex personality of spiritual enlightenment and intellectual curiosity. His works form a reservoir of facts and histories that reveal surprising angles to many philosophical and cultural questions through a maze of revolving evasions in search for the deep meaning. Cantemir never ceased to amaze European and Turkish intellectuals with the wealth of his analyses and observations across interrelated areas of knowledge. The humanistic curiosity of Cantemir has no limits as he continues to move around the multifaceted points of his attention in search of the ultimate perspective to his subjects. The Turks, their actions and customs aggressive and kindly, genuine and symbolic, ordinary and majestic, stand in overwhelming light on the center stage of Cantemir's world of configurations.".

Book of buildings: Tezkiretü'l-bünyan and Tezkiretü'l-ebniye. Memoirs of Sinan the Architect.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (32 x 24 cm). In English. 188 p. Color and b/w ills. Book of buildings: Tezkiretü'l-bünyan and Tezkiretü'l-ebniye. Memoirs of Sinan the Architect. Book of Buildings is the complete critical edition of two important texts, Tezkeritü-‘l-Bünyan and Tezkeritü-‘l-Ebniye, based on Sinan’s own accounts of his life and works. The text is accompanied by scores of full color photographs of Sinan’s monuments, miniatures illustrating his works, and facsimiles of the original scripts. For the Ottoman Empire it is works of architecture across the extensive lands which it ruled for over six centuries that mark its cultural identity most indelibly. Today from Bosnia to Yemen, from Iraq to Algeria, and throughout nearly every part of the eastern Mediterranean we find mosques, hans, hamams, bridges, and other buildings representing the achievements of Ottoman civilization and keeping its memory alive. Astonishingly, the majority of these landscapes are the work of A single creative genius, the great master architect of the Ottoman golden age: Sinan. In a lifetime of nearly a century one man created the most outstanding masterpieces of Ottoman architecture, and no other eminent architect left even a fraction of his legacy in terms of sheer numbers. Cover Illustration: The only portrait of Mimar Sinan. Detail from a miniature in Tarih-I Sultan Süleyman, f.115b; Chester Beatty Library, MS413. 1579-1580. "I hope that those of pure heart who look upon my works from now until the end of time and doomsday will regard me kindly, and when they see the earnestness of my endeavour and dedication remember me in their prayers. May God’s will be done." Sinan.

Amorium: A Byzantine city in Anatolia. An archaeological guide.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In English. 180 p. Color and b/w ills. "In 1836 William Hamilton identified the site of Amorium and provided the first description of the ancient ruins. "We reached the deserted and dreary site of what was once a populous city.Near the centre of the valley in which the ruins are situated. is an insulated hill about half a mile in circumference, on which may still be traced a portion of the walls of an Acropolis. The principal part of the town is to the S. and S.W. of the Acropolis. These ruins.appear chiefly to date from the early Byzantine or Christian period., marking the existence of one of those large and important towns which were destroyed in this part of Asia Minor by the irruptions of the Saracens and the Seljukian monarchs of Iconium." Much of what Hamilton described has now disappeared, but since 1988 the Amorium Excavations Project has been able to reveal other ruins that testify to the accuracy of his assessment of Amorium as an important Roman and Byzantine city. This guidebook aims to give an interim account of the on-going excavations and set the site in its proper historical context.".

Assos: Living in the rocks. An archaeological guide.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In English. 180 p. Color and b/w ills. "Situated in northwest Asia Minor on a volcanic rock overlooking the Gulf of Adramyttion, Assos now stands in the village of Behram Köyü, Çanakkale. The settlement goes back to the second millennium BC and was later re-established by Aeolian settlers from Methymna in the 7th century BC. Assos possesses the only temple in the Doric order in Archaic Asia Minor. Great construction activities were conducted in the 4th century BC during the tyranny of the Banker Eubulus and his slave Hermeias. Aristotle's visit and his founding a school in Assos in 347-345 BC are arguably the most famous events in the history of the city. During Roman rule, Assos established good relations with Rome and as a result it was granted autonomy and the right to issue coins. The visit of St. Paul is another important landmark in the history of the city. In 1838 some of the architectural blocks were smuggled to Paris. The Archaeological Institute of America carried out the first systematic excavations in Assos between 1881-1883. A century later, Turkish archaeologists started to dig on the site. With its archaeological remains, authentic village culture, beautiful sea, hotels, restaurants, olive groves and forests, Assos offers visitors an unforgettable experience and journey back in time. This book provides readers with a handy guide to Assos/Behram Köyü and its environs".

Eine karische Gebirgslandschaft: Herakleia am Latmos. Stadt und Umgebung.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In German. 252 p., color and b/w ills. "Wer die Mäanderebene durchquert, dem droht im Osten der finsterzackige Gipfel des Latmos, eines Granitgebirges eruptiver Entstehung. Durch einen See getrennt von der Durchgangsstrasse, unwirtlich und armselig, ist dies Gebirge von jeher die einsamste Gegend des Landes gewesen. In der beispiellosen Wildheit des durcheinander geworfenen Gesteins ist der Latmos eines der grössten Naturerlebnisse, die einem Reisenden beschieden sein können" (M. Schede, 1936). In dieser, von M. Schede seinerzeit so treffend beschriebenen Gebirgsregion fanden sich in den vergangenen Jahren zahlreiche, weitgehend unbekannte Siedlungsspuren, die massgebend von der Felslandschaft des Latmos geprägt sind. Der Latmos war einer der heiligen Berge Anatoliens, sein Gipfel Sitz des höchsten Gottes, des Wettergottes. Von den zahlreichen Entdeckungen der letzten Zeit sind die prähistorischen Felsmalereien mit ihrer einmaligen Bilderwelt zweifelsohne die wichtigste. In der Karadere-Höhle, vermutlich dem zentralen Heiligtum des Wettergottes, wird selbst dem heutigen Besucher der Bezug zwischen Felsmalerei und Bergspitze bewusst.".

ORHAN BINGÖL.
Die Stadt von Artemis mit Weissen Augenbrauen: Magnesia am Maander (Magnesia ad Maeandrum).
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In German. 204 p., color and b/w ills. "Wenn O. Bingöl gefragt wird, wie lange sich die Ausgrabungen ausdehnen könnten, pflegt er immer zu sagen, daß er für sich selbst ein Programm für 400 Jahre vorgenommen hätte, für die Zeit danach könnte er keine Verantwortung mehr übernehmen. Dabei will er zwei Tatsachen andeuten: Ausgrabungen enden nie und mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Mitteln benötigt man mindestens diesen Zeitraum. Magnesia ist wirklich so eine antike Stadt, in der sich lohnen würde, die Arbeiten wirklich so lange laufen zu lassen. In diesem Buch wurde zusammengestellt, was in 23 Jahren dieses Programms (!) in Magnesia geleistet wurde, ergänzt durch schon bekannte, wissenswerte Aspekte von Magnesia. Sie werden auch beobachten, wie eine antike Stadt, die unter den nachfolgenden Kulturen nicht viel gelitten hat und im Gegenteil dazu noch unter der hohen Schwemmschicht gestützt wurde, durch mühsamen Ausgrabungen Stück für Stück zum Tageslicht gebracht wird.".

New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In English. 204 p. Color and b/w ills. "Pessinous, the sacred city of the Anatolian Mother Goddess Kybele, is situated centrally on he Anatolian plateau, about 150 km southwest of the capital Ankara. A major part of the ancient city is situated under the modern village of Ballihisar. According to tradition, the site dates back to the Phrygian era as a cult site and settlement. The famous King Midas himself is supposed to have founded Pessinous and erected the first sanctuary of Kybele in the 8th century BC. The cult of the Mother Goddess spread first across the Greek world and then from Pessinous throughout the Roman Empire, and conquered the classical world. The excavations that have been carried out at the site since 1967 by the Belgian Archaeological teams of Ghent University have unearthed the heart of ancient Pessinous.".
