2006New English Paperback. 4to. In English and Turkish. 255 p., fully color ills. Megerdich Jivanian: A painter of Istanbul.= Migirdiç Civanyan: Bir Istanbul ressami. "Not much has been written about Jivanian. Researcher-author Mayda Saris has gone through Armenian and Turkish sources and has researched at lenght archives both in Turkey and abroad to piece together Jivanians life story. She found and documented nearly all Jivanian works held by domestic and foreign collections. It was essential that research bringing to light the interesting and unique personality of an individual so important to Turkish art history be conducted. The time has come to remove the veil shrouding Jivanian's life and to make it possible for his work to be presented as a coherent whole to the world." Raffi Portakal from Introduction.

2002New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English. 331 p., b/w and color ills. Constantinople and the orientalists. Since the publication of our earlier study; 'Orientalism and Turkey', we have been exploring the ramifications of Orientalism in the Ottoman capital of Istanbul itself, or as it was generally known in the nineteenth and early twentieth century: Constantinople. The present study, documented by both visual and written records, including memories, reveals not only the ways in which Istanbul was perceived and portrayed by European artists in the nineteenth century, but it also tries to represent the contemporary city as it truly lived and breathed. In the present work, the reader will discover the identity of Western artists whose works pictorially limned the Ottoman capital, their favorite subjects ¿the harem, the bath, the coffeehouse, and the slave market- and the nature of their interpretation of these subjects.

1923Very Good English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 13 cm). In Ottoman script. 101, [1] p., 1 b/w plate. Nasrüddin Sah ve Babiler. A study on Nasiruddin Shah, (1831-1896), was the King of Persia from 17 September 1848 to 1 May 1896 when he was assassinated. He was the son of Mohammad Shah Qajar and Malek Jahan Khanom and the third longest reigning monarch in Persian history after Shapur II of the Sassanid dynasty and Tahmasp I of the Safavid Dynasty. Nasser al-Din Shah had sovereign power for close to 50 years and was also the first Persian monarch to ever write and publish his diaries. Naser al-Din was in Tabriz from Qajars tribe when he heard of his father's death in 1848, and he ascended to the Sun Throne with the help of Amir Kabir. Naser al-Din had early reformist tendencies, but was dictatorial in his style of government. With his sanction, some Babis were killed after an attempt on his life. This treatment continued under his prime minister Amir Kabir, who even ordered the execution of the Báb - regarded as a manifestation of God to Bábí's and Bahá'ís, and to historians as the founder of the Bábí religion. Unable to regain territory lost to Russia in the early 19th century, Naser al-Din sought compensation by seizing Herat, Afghanistan, in 1856. Great Britain regarded the move as a threat to British India and declared war on Persia, forcing the return of Herat as well as Persia recognition of the kingdom of Afghanistan.

The culture array of Polonezköy expanding from Nazim Hikmet to Gencer, from Franz Liszt to Atatürk, from Gustave Flaubert to Pierre Loti, from Chopin to Czeslaw Milosz, from music to literature- is exposed by the book and photographs of the artist Akgün Akova.

Within the scope of this project, Polonezköy will be told as a symbol of peace, friendship and fraternity between the peoples of Turkey and Poland all through a wide array of names such as Nazim Hikmet, Leyla Gencer, Franz Liszt, Atatürk, Gustave Flaubert, Pierre Loti, Chopin and Czeslaw Milosz. The story of Polish originated people living in Polonezköy will be examined through history, poetry, literature, music, photography and other lines of art.
