2019New English Paperback. Large demy 8vo. (22 x 16 cm). In English. 320 p. The Church of Sancta Sophia Constantinople. Sancta Sophia is the most interesting building on the world's surface. Like Karnak in Egypt, or the Athenian Parthenon, it is one of the four great pinnacles of architecture, but unlike them this is no ruin, nor does it belong to a past world of constructive ideas although it precedes by seven hundred years the fourth culmination of the building art in Chartres, Amiens, or Bourges, and thus must ever stand as the supreme monument of the Christian cycle. Our first object has been to attempt some disentanglement of the history of the Church and an analysis of its design and construction; on the one hand, we have been led a step or two into the labyrinth of Constantinopolitan topography, on the other, we have thought that the great Church offers the best point of view for the observation of the Byzantine theory of building.

"The publication offers its readers an opportunity to get acquainted with Istanbul - whether they be its resident or a tourist, as it presents the suppressed histories of the Ottoman era and Republican Turkey by looking at Istanbul from the lens of a tour guide. The places we pass by or visit on a daily basis are, inevitably, places with certain histories. These are mostly histories of appropriation and violation, injustice and power, but at times also histories of struggle. A City That Remembers sheds light on this rather 'unofficial' version of Istanbul's history through a total of 17 spaces, squares and buildings.".

However, Sultan Abdülmecid I, who is recalled as the pioneer of modernization trends, father of education reforms, as a matter of fact one of the architects of the Imperial Edict of Reorganization, by his education and rearing, has gone down in history as the individual who has taken the first step to abolish slavery. Istanbul had acquired its most beautiful silhouette by the palaces, manors and mosques that were built during the reign of Sultan Abdülmecid. And among these building, there is one mosque that is the pearl of the Bosphorus, which is ascribed as Naks-i Istanbul (Imprint of Istanbul).

2002New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 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.

2010New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Oblong 4to. (29 x 30 cm). In English. 204 p., ills. Polonezköy: The eagle under the crescent and star. 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. Artist Akgün Akova has got over five thousand photographs depicting Turkey and over four hundred articles about the country that appeared in magazines like Voyager, Skylife and National Geographic etc. The book titled 'The Eagle beneath the Crescent and Star: Polonezköy' by Akgün Akova aims at showing the meaning and importance of a tiny village in Istanbul that serves European culture and world peace. Founded in 1842 in Beykoz, Istanbul, the village Polonezköy established a strong bond between Turkey and Poland. This project is about a book and a photograph exhibition to be held in Istanbul and in Warsaw to tell about artists that relate to Polonezköy along with their stories. 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.

2019New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 156 p. Apologies for the past: Two cases from Turkey. This book explores the issue of collective apology, and its potential to function as a symbolic form of restitution that publicly addresses and acknowledges the grievances faced by victimized groups. It explores two cases of collective apology in Turkey, "I Apologize" online signature campaign in 2008, and an apology speech carried out by a state official on the Dersim massacre in 2011. Both events raised significant public debate in Turkish society. Taking these two recent cases of collective apology and looking at them through the lens of existing scholarship on collective apology, this thesis explores the answers to a set of questions; on the format, wording and enactment of the apologies and their dealing with the issues of responsibility, and reconciliation.
2006New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English and Turkish. 236 p., 1 b/w portrait of Redhouse frontispiece, b/w ills. Sir James W. Redhouse: The making of a perfect orientalist? = Sir James W. Redhouse: Mükemmel bir dogubilimcinin öyküsü? (American Board Library Occasional Publications No: 1). First published in the Journal of the American Oriental Society in 1979, and now revised and updated, Carter Findley's "The Making of a Perfect Orientalist?" is a scrupulously researched biography of the enigmatic nineteenth-century Turkish language scholar James W. Redhouse. Primarily embodied in two major dictionaries-A Lexicon, English and Turkish (1861) and A Turkish and English Lexicon (1890)-Redhouse's work established a crucial base for the further development of English-Turkish lexicography. Unparalleled at the time, his contributions remain vital today, forming the core of a number of bilingual English-Turkish dictionaries which still bear the Redhouse name. A brief overview of the press that published Redhouse's lexicons, as well as the reminiscences of two editors who helped revise them in the twentieth century, round out this provocative study of the life of James Redhouse.
