Book Description
This volume contains Crimean Tatar folklore texts that had been collected by the noted Hungarian Turkologist Ignác Kúnos during World War I, specifically from Russian Muslim prisoners of war in Hungarian camps. The collection consists of 38 fairy tales and a partial version of the Chora-batir epic. The tales featuring padishahs, their sons, and naive boys, exhibit the enchanting diversity of Crimean Tatar folk imagination. The introductory study delves into linguistic aspects, then the next chapter explicates the transcription system’s phonetic nuances. It is followed by an English translation, which reflects Kúnos’ Hungarian translation in a much ameliorated and revised form. A sizable trilingual (Crimean Tatar–English–Russian) glossary follows covering the entire Crimean Tatar material collected by Kúnos. It becomes evident that dialectal features cannot be sharply separated across the tales since the Crimean dialects are highly mixed in character, distinguished only by the different proportions of northern (Kipchak) and southern (Oghuz) elements. The present volume, while preserving valuable pieces of Crimean Tatar folklore and offering linguistic insights, also opens a unique window into a distant time and culture.

Dynamics of National Identity and Transnational Identities in the Process of European Integration
Author: Elena Marushiakova
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527565610
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
This collection was inspired by the international conference "Dynamics of National Identity and Transnational Identities in the Process of European Integration", organized by the Balkan Ethnology Department of the Ethnographic Institute and Museum at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and realized as project of the European Commission Jean Monnet Action Program for the support of Study and Research Centers. The book opens a debate on the changing notions of identity in the region of Central and Eastern Europe on the base of analysis of social developments influenced by EU accession and EU integration process. The most important aspect is the analysis of processes of breaking up the borders of national identity and transition towards new forms of transnational identities and emerging of consciosness of All-European unity. The book has a dual focus: on general topics related to the study of national and transnational identities and on the process of European integration. It brings together the work of researchers not only from different parts of Europe (from France to Russia) but from USA and Asia too. This book is a starting point for East-West discussion and brings new knowledge that will be an invaluable contribution to the common European research area.

Prosimetrum
Author: Joseph Harris
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 9780859914758
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
In virtually all the literary traditions of the world there are works of verbal art that depend for part of their effect on the juxtaposition of prose and verse. This volume takes the first step towards a comparative study of prosimetrum', the mixture of prose and verse, with essays by leading linguists and literary scholars of a selection of prosimetrical traditions. The nature of what constitutes verse or prose is one underlying question addressed. An outline of historical developments emerges, especially for Europe and the Near East, with articles on classical, medieval and nineteenth-century literatures. Oriental prosimetrical literatures discussed include that of Vedic India and the old literary cultures of China and Japan; also represented are oral and oral-derived folk literatures of recent centuries in Africa, the West, and Inner Asia.(This volume takes the first step towards a comparative study of prosimetrum', the mixture of prose and verse, in a wide range of literarycultures.

The Crimean Tatars
Author: Brian Williams
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004491287
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
Taking as its starting point the ethnogenesis of this ethnic group during the Mongol period (13th century), this volume traces their history through Islam, the Ottoman and the Russian Empires (15th and 17th century). The author discusses how Islam, Russian colonial policies and indigenous national movements shaped the collective identity of this victimized ethnic group. Part two deals with the role of forced migration during the Russian colonial period, Soviet nation-building policies and ethnic cleansing in shaping this people's modern national identity. This work therefore also has wider applications for those dealing with the construction of diasporic identities. Taking a comparative approach, it traces the formation of Crimean Tatar diasporas in the Ottoman Balkans, Republican Turkey, and Soviet Central Asia (from 1944). A theme which emerges through the work is the gradual construction of the Crimea as a national homeland by its indigenous Tatar population. It ends with a discussion of the post-Soviet repatriation of the Crimean Tatars to their Russified homeland and the social and identity problems involved.
