2014New English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Turkish and English. 814, [2] p., many color and b/w ills. Registers and memoirs of Keppe, Karen, (1876-1935) was a Danish missionary and social worker, known for her work aid worker with Ottoman Armenian refugees and survivals of the Armenian Genocide, mainly widows and orphans, from 1903 until her death in Syria in 1935 (Near East Relief). She was a member of Johannes Lepsius's Deutsch Orient-Mission (German Orient Mission) and assumed responsibility (in 1903) for the Armenian children in the Millet Khan German Refugee Orphanage after the 1895 Urfa massacres. In Aleppo, today in the Syrian territory, various relief organizations such as orphanages, hospitals, vocational schools were established for the Armenians coming into the region due to tehcir. The social and economic welfare activities undertaken by the Ottoman administrators in the region were launched and conducted as of the very first days of the World War I. After the war various relief organizations engaged in certain activities in the region as well. One such an organization was the Near East Relief Foundation. The activities launched by the foundation were led by Karen JEPPE, a Danish philanthropist and a Commissioner at the League of Nations. Our study embodies the narratives of 1184 people whom the Near East Relief Foundation helped in the period given. (Although Karen Jeppe claims to have had rescued 1700 people, some of the records are not found in the League of Nations Archives in Geneva). The information taking place in the records found at the League of Nations Archives not only contains the names of the people, their parents' names, hometowns, ages, and their acceptance to the relief foundation, but the stories they lived throughout the period after the relocations.
