This book has been prepared to present a culture, which was and is still being shared in the land called Anatolia. Art is the product of culture and mind; but it also has a specific aspect of its own. And this is form. The renowned art historian Heinrich Wöfflin says: “Men do not ever approach art with the same view, because they perceive what they see as they desire to see it, and then create it...” This idea determines the formation of cultures. The great artistic styles which we find in the main concepts of art history, show us that each period has seen the world with a different view and had to create a different language of form to express and convey what was seen. If the concept expressed as “Get to know the man, then you will get to understand his art” is a basic principle of art history, then I want to remind you that this book, which is ranged in the context of researches of Anatolian Synagogues, has been prepared with the main idea of bringing into light the authentic phenomena of these buildings. I recognize the essence, the form, the aesthetic care in the artistic structure of the Jewish religion, established in Anatolia long before Christ, and I conceive that the formation of this artistic structure has a very important place in defining the varied culture of this land where we trace life since prehistorical ages. I believe that human history will gain new dimensions and new cultures through the appreciation of every artistic phenomenon. We can see these Anatolian Synagogues, some dating back to the 1800s, have survived to our day. What we observe is a structural whole formed by the art trend defined as “Archaeological Classicism”. “Archaeological Classicism” is a part of the theoretical interest shown to the Classical Antique Age oriented directly to the ancient Greek and Roman art. The exterior structures of Anatolian Synagogues are very plain, in harmony and visual integrity with their surroundings even to the degree of being unnoticeable. However, the interior is very different. The entrance prepares you for an unexpected greatness which you will face. Everything has been taken from the essence of life. The formal fantasies have been specialized in general. The individual is never left all alone; and thus structures and shapes have been formed as to share the whole in communal life. Consequently, a concept of integrity which presents itself in form, has been created. This has the psychological effect of removing the importance of the social status image, and replacing it with the power of social unity. Since the buildings were structured within the frame of this concept, they were not shaped in discrete forms; but the Scholastic approach has been displayed in definite points. Anatolian Synagogues are grouped in three regions: The first group is the Thracian Synagogues. The second group covers the Western and Central Anatolian Synagogues. And to the third group belong the Southeastern and Eastern Anatolian Synagogues. The construction plans display triplet systems. The general characteristic is to have a central space and two spreading centers connected to the main one. The “Ehal” is the point where this flow of action meets. The architectural structure is built on this basis. All decorations are absorbed in the whole. Although the embroideries and embellishments of the “Parohets” give the impression of being independent of the architectural integrity, they are nevertheless the most spiritual elements of the synagogues. They reflect the specific characteristic of art, which is a product of culture and mind, in other words, they reflect the essence of art which is the farm of the content. Thus we meet with artistic formations displaying sincere feelings. The “Parohets” have a special significance in Anatolian Synagogues. The most significant characteristic of the synagogues is the presence of the Torah Rolls. They show regional differences. The artists of the region have sacrificingly prepared the “Rimonnims”. It is possible to see all the characteristics of the regional culture on each Rimonnim. Particularly, the Rimonnims in Izmir, Bursa and their surroundings are real works of art which deserve attention. Anatolian Synagogues, with their particular structures, have contributed to the formation of the impressive Anatolian culture as a whole. They have kept the Myth which Man has created through history, on their own soil; they have enabled the formation of a different culture entering into Anatolia from Mesopotamia; and they have furthermore provided the activity of economic function throughout the centuries. The other immigration flows from Europe and Thracia brought the Western cultures to Anatolia; and through all those influences Anatolia gained a new dimension in history. ERSİN ALOK

The start of the twentieth century ushered in a period of unprecedented change in the Middle East. These transformations, brought about by the emergence of the modern state system and an increasing interaction with a more globalized economy, irrevocably altered the political and social structures of the Middle East, even as the region itself left its mark on the processes of globalization themselves. As a result of these changes, there was an intensification in the movement of people, commodities and ideas across the globe: commercial activity, urban space, intellectual life, leisure culture, immigration patterns and education - nothing was left untouched. It shows how even as the Middle East was responding to increased economic interactions with the rest of the world by restructuring not only local economies, but also cultural, political and social institutions, the region's engagement with these trends altered the nature of globalization itself. This period has been seen as one in which the modern state system and its oftentimes artificial boundaries emerged in the Middle East. But this book highlights how, despite this, it was also one of tremendous interconnection. Approaching the first period of modern globalization by investigating the movement of people, objects and ideas into, around and out of the Middle East, the authors demonstrate how the Middle East in this period was not simply subject or reactive to the West, but rather an active participant in the transnational flows that transformed both the region and the world. A Global Middle East offers an examination of a variety of intellectual and more material exchanges, such as nascent feminist movements and Islamist ideologies as well as the movement of sex workers across the Mediterranean and Jewish migration into Palestine. A Global Middle East emphasises this by examining the multi-directional nature of movement across borders, as well as this movement's intensity, volume and speed. By focusing on the theme of mobility as the defining feature of 'modern globalization' in the Middle East, it provides an essential examination of the formative years of the region.

This book introduces the reader to the past and present of Jewish life in Turkey and to Turkish Jewish diaspora communities in Israel, Europe, Latin America and the United States. It surveys the history of Jews in the Ottoman Empire and the Turkish Republic, examining the survival of Jewish communities during the dissolution of the empire and their emigration to America, Europe, and Israel. In the cases discussed, members of these communities often sought and seek close connections with Turkey, even if those ‘ties that bind’ are rarely reciprocated by Turkish governments. Contributors also explore Turkish Jewishness today, as it is lived in Israel and Turkey, and as found in ‘places of memory’ in many cities in Turkey, where Jews no longer exist today.

La montagna dei Curdi è frutto di un’estesa ricerca sul campo e di un’attenta analisi sociologica, politica e antropologica, tanto da costituire la disamina più approfondita disponibile oggi sul panorama editoriale internazionale. Ripercorrendo la storia della regione curdo-siriana di Afrin, il volume ne descrive la ricca e complessa composizione etnico-religiosa, documenta la sperimentazione politica messa in campo dalle forze curdo-siriane dal 2012, in seguito alla cosiddetta rivoluzione del Rojava, e soprattutto raccoglie le voci dei protagonisti della regione, dai cittadini comuni agli attori sociali e politici chiave. A incombere sul panorama illustrato è l’invasione militare turca e islamista avuta inizio nel gennaio 2018, quando il libro si stava chiudendo. È per questo che rappresenta una fotografia unica dello scenario socio-politico di pace della regione di Afrin – caso quasi unico in Siria – subito prima che l’attacco esterno lo cancellasse violentemente, per sempre. È la descrizione di una Siria “possibile”, di uno scenario di convivenza pacifica fra culture, lingue, etnie e inclinazioni politiche diverse.
