Yılmaz Açık Science fiction, which is supposed to have started with the Greek writer Lukianos in the 2nd century, started to appear in Turkish literature for the first time in the 19th century with Jules Verne translations. In this period, although Ahmet Mithat Efendi's A Science Novel or American Doctors (1888) took its place in Turkish literature as the first copyrighted work, there was no interest in this genre for a very long time. Science fiction, which continued its existence with very few works published until the 1970s, became more visible in the 1980s with the influence of fanzines and science fiction magazines published after the 1970s. After 1980, the novels published in America and Europe were translated into Turkish and with the effect of science fiction films in cinema, it started to take its place in Turkish literature, especially after 2000.
In this book, the place and development of science fiction in Turkish literature has been tried to be revealed by examining the novels published in the genre of science fiction after 1980.

İbrahim Demirci We present one of the most comprehensive books about Ahmet Hâşim, one of the great poets of Turkish Poetry: Ahmet Hâşim's Prose. Ahmet Hâşim, the strong, subtle and wild poet of O Belde, Staircase, Carnation, Piyale, Nightingale, Garden, Suvari, enriched our language and literature with his prose. Ahmet Hâşim, who added "experimental" depth and flavor to almost all of his anecdotes, interviews and travel writings, which he published in various newspapers and magazines and only one third of which he made into a book, avoided being the plaything of literary movements and political ideologies; was able to look at the world with free, curious, sometimes childish and mischievous eyes; benefited as much as possible from the cultural accumulation of all humanity; He produced in-depth texts with an aesthetic approach. İbrahim Demirci, with the meticulousness of a jeweler, dealt with all his prose, both published and unpublished, in this study; evaluated both in terms of content and form. This work, which is a basic source in the context of Hashim's prose, is not a tribute to Hashim, who has already deserved such works, but a duty.
“But why should it be necessary to think like so-and-so in order to have thought right?” “You had to have a soul for you to understand me, and that soul had to be poisoned in a way that was incurable, like the soul of our fellow countryman Loti.” “Mosque and human, robe and turban, barbecue and hookah are not what is called orient; The Orient sees and hears them and adopts them while seeing them. / Literature is in the air of life and in the nets of nerves. Our painters will know this the day they are ready to get out of the turpentine-smelling air of their ateliers.” “Of all the temples, it is the mosque that gets the first light from the sun. Minarets with copper arrows rise in the air to see the sun first.” “No face is as beautiful in reality as it seems in the imagination.” “In Istanbul, there are many poets who are incapable of using their wings, like bees falling into a honey pot, and walk with their feet in shambles, as opposed to a poet whose arm was struck by the electrical wires of a political issue without his knowledge, but once or twice in his life in Istanbul.” “No artist wants to talk about his work to others before creating it. Because a work whose secret has been exposed is doomed to die before it is born.” “One of the last definitions of art, which has been described differently in every era, is this: 'A means of compensating for the caresses that real life has denied us.'” “Germany is a big pink apple. But it is wormy inside.” “A nation that is constantly worried about whether I am loved or not is a nation that has given up hope of being liked.”

Geographical awareness enables to know the world, country and close environment with its natural and human existence in the best way, and thanks to this awareness, it allows both to own it and to benefit from it in the best way by protecting it. Preserving ki includes planning and organizing by anticipating the future. Being geographically conscious individuals requires, on the one hand, acquire geographical knowledge and, on the other hand, geographical skills. Undoubtedly, our attitudes, identities, and values ​​deeply affect our geographically conscious decision-making. Geographical skills, on the one hand, provide individuals with different attitudes, values ​​and identities; It provides an opportunity to know, understand and question the other. When it comes to skill acquisition in geography education, it is a must to accompany theoretical knowledge with practice. When the literature is examined, both the fact that geographical skills are not supported with activities and practice examples and the absence of a detailed publication that brings geographical skills together in a single book constitute the main points of the preparation of the book. In this context, the book consists of eight chapters dealing with geographical skills, in the order of their presentation within the framework of the Geography Curriculum.
Hoping to accompany the story of the world, which presents an autobiographical narrative filled with evidence...

Being at the center of the world's transportation, energy and trade corridor, it has been in the focus of attention of global powers for a long time. During the 19th and 20th centuries, most of the communities and peoples that make up the Turkish World remained in captivity; even today, some of them still cannot lead an independent life, however, they protect their own identity by protecting their national and religious values. In this context, with this third book of our series, which reveals our 4000 years of Turkish history, titled "Contemporary Turkish World", we have visited Turkestan, Siberia, Idil-Ural, Crimea, Caucasus, Iran, the Balkans, the Middle East and Cyprus from the 1850s to 2020. As we examined the Turkish presence in Turkey, we also tried to reveal the policies of the countries that have a say in the world, as well as Turkey, towards the Turkish World and how they perceive this world.
Although the book was prepared especially for university students, it has become a book that can be used by those who are interested in the subject, who want to have basic knowledge and who want to learn about the approaches of world power centers towards the Turkish World. Hope it is useful…

Every society or nation contributes to this structure to the extent of its own literary ability. In this structure, it is seen that the feelings, thoughts, views of the people who lived in different times or geographies, and the way they express their own existence are shaped by national and local characteristics and become universal.
While national literatures address certain societies, world literature addresses humanity; It is the common heritage of all humanity. While the issue of which authors and works should be considered as a priority when it comes to world literature is open to debate, what matters here is what we hear and feel from these writers and works, regardless of their language, religion and nationality. Regardless of nationality, the language of emotions is common.
In this work called World Literature Studies, world literature and world classics are introduced in general, from the first examples to the present, and then information about literary movements is given; Russian, French, English, Greek, Latin, German, American, Spanish, Italian, Scandinavian, Chinese, Arabic, Persian, Indian, Turkish and Japanese literatures are discussed with examples. In the last part of the work, classical works selected from both Eastern and Western literature have been tried to be analyzed in the light of contemporary analysis methods. In this respect, it is thought that the work will constitute an important resource for researchers and art lovers who are interested in world literature.

Ahsen Yüksek, Atilla Karataş, Hasan Özdemir, Hülya Caner, Hüseyin Turoğlu, Nurten Günal, T. Ahmet Ertek, Zahide Acar Deniz If it is necessary to define an "environment" within the general framework of the concept of geography, the environments in which living and non-living beings coexist, in communication with each other in the form of energy and matter exchange, and the distribution of these environments on the earth should come to mind.
The issue of what the basic starting point should be in human-environment or human-environment interaction is a matter of debate even today. Because today, human beings can change the physical characteristics of the environment in which they live, in line with their own interests. When necessary, hills and river valleys can be destroyed in order to open up residential areas, or by removing the natural surface cover (such as cutting forests, creating large water bodies by building dams), the energy exchange between the earth and the atmosphere, and thus the local climate, is changed.
Although humans cause some environmental changes by changing the surface in local areas, the factors that determine the boundaries of settlement and human activities are physical geography elements. Large water bodies such as oceans and seas, the upper parts of the mountains after a certain level (may vary depending on geographical latitude), desert areas are the main limiting factors, but rivers and seasides and areas with fertile plains have been the general centers of attraction.
Geography has developed its own schools over these concepts. Geographers, who took part in the movement that emerged in the 1850s, developed "environmental determinism" based on the interpretation that human activities are affected by physical geography elements, in other words, the physical environment or environment shapes man. On the other hand, in the following years, the interpretation of "possibilism", in which it is argued that people can determine how the opportunities offered by the environment to people, will be used, has been developed.
In this book, the general structure and characteristics of all the basic components that make up our world, mountains, plains, plateaus, oceans and seas, and undoubtedly the atmosphere, which we define as the environment, space or earth, which are the basis of these discussions, and their interactions with each other, are discussed in a clear and understandable language. has been written.

Ali Ekber Gülersoy, Atilla Karataş, Hilmi Demirkaya, Mehmet Akif Ceylan, Mustafa Girgin, Mustafa Sağdıç, Selahi Coşkun, Süleyman Elmacı General Physical Geography has been prepared as a textbook for the students of the social studies, geography and classroom teaching programs of the universities and the geography department. The scope of the book is arranged in accordance with the curriculum of the General Physical Geography course accepted by the Council of Higher Education. In addition, the unique science systematic of geography was taken into account in determining the content of the book. The science of geography, which is described as the synthesis and mother of all sciences, consists of two main branches of science, physical and human geography. Therefore, this book covers the basic issues of geography directly related to space (earth) and contributes to our better understanding of the natural structure and interactions of the world we live in.
The book is divided into eight chapters and numerous subheadings. In the first part, the definition, subject, development and scientific identity of geography; in the second part, the Universe, the Solar System and the Earth; in the third part, the formation of the earth, the factors affecting this process and the main topographies; The fourth chapter focuses on climate science, Earth's atmosphere and climate system. In the fifth chapter, water geography, distribution, characteristics and effects of underground and surface waters; in the sixth chapter, the formation of soil, its types, distribution and soil problems; In the seventh chapter, the classification of plants, the conditions of their habitats and their distribution on the earth are discussed. In the eighth and final chapter, various topics of map knowledge are covered in detail; maps, graphs, diagrams and geographic information systems have been touched upon.
The topics covered in the book are explained in a simple and understandable language. In order to better understand the subjects, efforts have been made to provide visual materials such as a large number of figures, maps, photographs, graphics, and tables, as well as reading passages, notes, warnings, etc.

Nihat Yazılıtaş The earliest known traveler is Strabo (64 BC - 24 AD) who was a Greek historian, geographer and philosopher. After Strabo, many travelers have traveled the world and described the places they have visited in their travel books. In these works, they talked about the geography of the places they went, the lifestyles of the people living there, their cultures, marital status, beliefs, architectural structures, commercial life, extraordinary events told there, stories, legends and many more. In this context, travel books are extremely important sources in terms of history, especially in terms of cultural history.
Every traveler sets out on his journey with his own beliefs and acceptances imposed on him by the cultural environment in which he grew up. He evaluates what he sees accordingly. Therefore, in this study, it has been tried to choose travelers from different cultures and belief circles while determining the travel books. Thus, the Sunni Muslim Ibn Khazar from Iraq (IX. century), the Shiite Muslim Nasser-i Husrev (XI. century) from Iran, the Jew Benjamin from Spain and the German Jew Petachia (XII. century), again from Spain Sunni Muslim al-Gırnati (XII. century) from Italy, Christian Marco Polo (XIII. century) from Italy, Christian missionary Wilhelm Von Rubruk from France (XIII. century), Sunni Muslim Ibn Battuta from Morocco ( XIV. century) and finally Christian Johannes Schiltberger (XIV-XV. century) from Germany were included in this study. Thus, we have brought together fantastic stories, some of which are real, but most of them are too extraordinary to be true, from the eyes of these travelers who visited the three continents of the Middle Ages and came from different faiths and cultures in their own time, and presented them to the reader. When readers start to read these fantastic stories, they will see the similarities between the subjects of fantastic stories, novels, TV series and movies that have increased in popularity today, and how the medieval narratives have sourced these modern studies.

Abdullah Akat, Abonoz Küçük, Ahmet Keskin, Berna Ayaz, Hamiyet Özen, Mehmet Aça, Mehmet Ali Yolcu, Mehmet Çeribaş, Mustafa Aça, Mustafa Dinç, Ülkü Kara Folklore, whose foundations were laid in Western Europe, has tended to spread to Western Asia, the Mediterranean basin and North America since the beginning of the 20th century. The beginning of Anatolian-centered Turkish folklore studies is also dated to this period. Turkish folklore, advancing towards a scientific formation with the pioneering works of Turkist intellectuals, has shown a rapid development in the context of the cultural policies of the Republic of Turkey. The fact that folklore studies have started to be carried out in an institutional framework has brought about the representation of this new branch of knowledge in our academy. Many scientists have provided unforgettable services in the progress of this process, which dates back to the 1960s, and in understanding the importance of folklore in cultural sciences.
folklore; In addition to becoming an undergraduate and graduate level department in the "Turkish Language and Literature" departments of the academies, the need for teaching materials has increased day by day with the opening of the "Folklore" departments, which aim to train experts in the field of folklore. The need for resources where different perspectives and innovative views are put forward has been tried to be met with various studies. The Folklore Handbook has been prepared to add a new one to these studies. In this book, which aims to be a source for the departments of our academy such as Turkish Language and Literature, Folklore, Anthropology, Musicology, Architecture, Art History, Handicrafts at undergraduate and graduate level, almost all subjects within the scope of folklore have been evaluated by academics who are experts in their fields, considering their functionality.

Mesut Hakkı Caşın No war can be understood independently of the multi-layered accumulation of historical, political, ethnic, religious, economic, cultural and commercial interests that prepared it.

Mahmud Şevket Paşa Written by Mahmut Şevket Pasha, illustrated by the Naval Ministry painter Hüseyin Hüsnü (Töngüz) Efendi, this work, consisting of three volumes and an addendum, named Ottoman Organization and Dress-i Military, is both military and military work from the foundation of the Ottoman Empire to its last period. He examines in great detail the organization of the military, as well as military outfits, which are not found in almost any other source. The first volume of the work covers the period from the establishment of the Ottoman Empire to the abolition of the Janissary Corps, the second volume covers the period from the establishment of the Asakir-i Mansure-i Muhammediye Army to 1876, and the third volume covers the period between 1876-1903. The appendix to the work includes some partial changes made after 1903.
The first two volumes of the work, the third volume and the appendix, which were printed in the Mekteb-i Harbiye Printing House in 1909, were not published during the period, probably because they contain information about the current military organization. This part of the work, which includes the period of Sultan Abdulhamid, is also of great importance in that it covers a period in which the military organization developed tremendously. Mahmut Şevket Pasha, in the preface of the first edition, wishes that this last volume will be published in the future, and with this publication, we are fulfilling the will of Pasha a hundred years ago.
We hope that this magnificent work, which we have transferred from the manuscript copy containing all the volumes in the Rare Works Library of Istanbul University, to today's alphabet by being faithful to the language of the period, will be a source for detailed researches of history researchers.

Mustafa Can, Nejla Günay, Ramazan Erhan Güllü, S. Gül Akyılmaz, Tuğba Eray Biber The Ottomans managed to maintain their unity and integrity in three continents by establishing and administering one of the longest-lived states in the world, in a geography known as the old world continents. It would be a wrong approach to base this success only on military power. Because the Ottoman Empire was able to maintain its existence for about three more centuries after losing its military power. So, to understand this, “How did the Ottomans provide peace and prosperity in the Middle East, the Balkans and the Caucasus, where turmoil is dominant today?” The answer to the question must be sought. Thus, it will be possible to find clues on how to improve the relations of societies with different cultures and beliefs with each other and how to achieve peace.
The Ottoman State showed the sensitivity of managing the beliefs and values ​​of its people with different origins, beliefs and cultural characteristics, rather than interfering and preventing them. The most important aim of the state was to ensure peace and tranquility through the society's coexistence within the framework of mutual respect. For this reason, he developed a management model called the "Ottoman Nation System" and accepted different religions as interlocutors before the newly established religious institutions and leaders to represent them.
