Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Challenges during unwanted pregnancy among Malays teenage mother / Afiqah Ismail and Tuan Nor Ashikin Tuan Him
Get PDFBackground: The phenomenon of ex-nuptial pregnancy among teenagers in Malaysia is a public concern. It associates with various negative consequences to the young mothers, their baby, family and the public as a whole. Despite the substantial effects, little is known about this phenomenon from the perspective of the young women themselves. Objective: This study aimed to explore the challenges of lived experiences of having unintended teenage pregnancy and to understand the strategies addressing this phenomenon from the perspective of the previously or currently unwed pregnant girls or young women. Methods: A qualitative study was conducted among 10 women who have experienced being unwed mothers when they were between 10 to 19 years old. Participants were recruited during their stay at two shelters in Selangor. All participants gave informed consent. In-depth face-to-face interviews were conducted, audiotaped and transcribed. All quotes were encoded using Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) Miner program. Data were analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). Results: Four themes emerged from the analyses; i) Trajectory of sexual activity, ii) struggles of motherhood to unwed teenage mothers, iii) The formula of resilience of teenage mothers, and iv) life after the misery. The girls and young women described how indirect relationships (such as communication via telephone and the internet) would increase the desire for sexual activities. Having broken family, poor religious practice, peer pressure and lack of knowledge on sexuality and reproductive health were described as the main contributing factors. They shared the difficulties to control the obsession or addiction to having sexual activities. They were overwhelmed with ambivalent feelings of wanting to terminate the pregnancy, abandon the newborn or to endure the journey of motherhood together with their ex-nuptial baby. With good support, the girls and young women managed to be good mothers for their baby. Conclusion: Perspectives of the girls and young women on addressing unwed teenage pregnancy are vital. Good support system and comprehensive strategies could assist them to cope with the challenges, continue their pregnancy and have a better life after the misery

Şah İsmail Safevî’nin Siyasi Portresi
Get PDFIm Laufe der Jahrhunderte gab es in der Geschichte unseres Volkes viele Persönlichkeiten, die Hunderte von Stämmen und Clans und Millionen von Menschen, die in einem gemeinsamen geografischen Gebiet lebten, dieselbe Sprache sprachen und dieselben spirituellen Werte teilten, um ein Ideal herum zu vereinen suchten.
Eine dieser historischen Persönlichkeiten ist Schah Ismail. Für renommierte Wissenschaftler und einflussreiche Historiker bleibt Schah Ismail ein großer Staatsmann und begnadeter Heeresführer. Aus der Sicht der Aserbaidschaner ist Schah Ismail die Person, die die Gebiete Aserbaidschans vereinte und den aserbaidschanischen Zentralstaat gründete.
In Primärquellen finden sich zahlreiche Betrachtungen über den Gründer des Safawidenstaates, die deutlich zeigen, wie unzertrennlich dieser mit den aserbaidschanischen und anatolischen Türken verbunden war. Besonders bekannt und versinnbildlichend ist hierbei ein Satz, den Ismail Safawi während der Belagerung der Gulistan-Festung, einer der am stärksten befestigten Festungen Schirwans, äußerte. Als die Belagerung sich in die Länge zog, fragte Ismail die einflussreichen Emire, mit denen er sich beriet: „Wollt ihr die Gulistan-Festung oder den Thron von Aserbaidschan?“ Diejenigen, die an die heilige Safawiden-Dynastie glaubten, antworteten daraufhin: „Den Thron von Aserbaidschan.“
Dieser historische Dialog ist aus mehreren Gründen bedeutend: Ismail, für den die Gründung eines mächtigen Staates als höchstes Ziel galt, das ihn zu militärischem Handeln antrieb, sah schon in jungen Jahren voraus, dass das Zentrum dieses Staates in Aserbaidschan zu liegen habe. Als der junge Safawiden-Schah 1499 mit sieben Anhängern von Gilan nach Ardabil aufbrach, ließ er sich von seinen Beratern leiten, doch vor der Gulistan-Festung versammelte er Emire und Notabeln und präsentierte ihnen nun höchstpersönlich seine großen historischen Ziele. Dies macht ihn zu einer der historischen Persönlichkeiten Aserbaidschans, die unabhängige Entscheidungen trafen.Throughout the history of our nation, there have been many figures who, by uniting hundreds of tribes and communities that lived in the same geographical area, spoke the same language, and shared spiritual values, called for unity and solidarity around a common ideal, gathering millions of people.
One of these historical figures is Shah Ismail. For scholars and historians, Shah Ismail remains a great statesman and a talented commander. In the eyes of Azerbaijanis, Shah Ismail is the person who unified the lands of Azerbaijan and established the central Azerbaijani state.
In the primary sources, numerous considerations about the founder of the Safevid state show his inherent ties with the Turks and Azerbaijan. Undoubtedly, the most notable and convincing of such facts are the words of Ismail Safevi when the Gulustan fortress in Shirvan was besieged. As the siege of the Gulustan fortress, one of the most strong fortifications of Shirvan, was prolonged, Ismail called the great emirs to him and said: “Do you need the Gulustan fortress or the throne of Azerbaijan?” Followers of the Holy Safavid dynasty answered “The throne of Azerbaijan”.
This historical discourse is important in the following ways: at first, Ismail saw his highest goal, which pushed him to military campaigns from an early age, to establish a new and powerful state. Secondly, Ismail declared this polity as the state of Azerbaijan. Thirdly, while Ismail moved from Gilan to Ardabil with his seven followers in 1499, he acted under the influence of his advisors, however, under the Gulustan fortress, he was already an independent personality who set great historical goals for his nobles and emirs.
The study of Shah Ismail’s political portrait is essential, first and foremost, for understanding his extraordinary personality. Shah Ismail managed to sustain the Safavid sectarian movement, mobilized Safavid followers around him despite his young age, initiated a movement with a small group that altered the political landscape of the region, successfully concluded this movement, and laid the foundations of a great and powerful state like the Safavid Empire, ensuring its longevity.Milletimizin tarihinde asırlar boyunca ortak coğrafyada yaşayan, aynı dili konuşan ve manevî değerleri paylaşan yüzlerce boy ve aşiretleri, milyonlarca insanı bir ülkü etrafında toplayarak birlik ve beraberlik çağrısında bulunan pek çok şahsiyet olmuştur.
Bu tarihi şahsiyetlerden biri de Şah İsmail’dir. Bilim adamları ve tarihçiler için Şah İsmail, büyük bir devlet adamı ve yetenekli bir komutan olmaya devam etmektedir. Azerbaycanlıların gözünde Şah İsmail, Azerbaycan topraklarını birleştiren ve merkezi Azerbaycan devletini kuran kişidir.
Ana kaynaklarda Safevî Devleti’nin kurucusu hakkında yapılan çok sayıda değerlendirme, onun Azerbaycan ve Anadolu Türkleri ile ayrılmaz bağını göstermektedir. Bu gerçeklerin en bilineni ve ikna edicisi şüphesiz İsmail Safevî’nin Şirvan’daki Gülistan kalesinin kuşatıldığı sırada söylediği sözlerdir. Şirvan’ın en müstahkem kalelerinden olan Gülistan kalesinin kuşatması uzadıkça İsmail nüfuzlu emirleri ile müşavere ederek şöyle dedi: “Gülistan kalesine mi, yoksa Azerbaycan tahtına mı ihtiyacınız var?” Kutsal Safevî hanedanının inananları cevap verdi... “Azerbaycan tahtına”.
Bu tarihî diyalog birkaç açıdan önemlidir: Daha erken yaşlarından itibaren kendisini askerî faaliyetlere sevk eden en yüksek amacını kudretli bir devletin kurulması olarak kabul eden İsmail inşa olunacak devletin Azerbaycan merkezli olacağını öngörüyordu. 1499 yılında yedi müridiyle birlikte Gilan’dan Erdebil’e yola çıkarken danışmanlarının etkisi ile harekete geçen gencecik Safevî şeyhi Gülistan kalesinin önünde emir ve ayanları toplayarak artık bizzat kendisi onların karşısına büyük tarihî hedefler koymaktadır. Bu onu Azerbaycan tarihinin bağımsız kararlar alan tarihî şahsiyetlerinden biri yapmaktadır.
Şah İsmail’in siyasi portresinin incelenmesi, öncelikle onun olağanüstü bir şahsiyet olarak karakterinin ortaya konulması açısından gereklidir. Şah İsmail, Safevi mezhebi hareketinin ayakta kalmasını nasıl sağladı, genç yaşına rağmen Safevi müridlerini çevresinde seferber etmeyi başardı, çevresinden birkaç kişiyle birlikte bölgenin siyasi manzarasını değiştirebilecek bir hareket başlattı, bu hareketi başarıyla tamamladı, Safevi Devleti gibi büyük ve güçlü bir devletin temellerini atmış, uzun ömürlü olmasını sağladı
Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality
No full textIsmail Fethi'nin Ruh ve Ahlâk'la ilgili Görüsleri isimli bu çalısmada, daha
önce hakkında herhangi bir çalısmanın yapılmadıgını tespit ettigimiz Ismail Fethi'nin
ruh ve ahlâkla ilgili görüsleri ele alınarak, müellifin bu görüsleri felsefe açısından
degerlendirilmeye çalısılmıstır.
Müellifin ruh görüsü zihin felsefesi, ahlâk görüsü ise ahlâk felsefesi
çerçevesinde ele alınmıstır. Ruh ile ilgili görüslerinde Ismail Fethi, dualist bakıs
açısına sahip oldugundan, onun bu noktadaki görüsleri önde gelen dualist filozoflarla
karsılastırmalı olarak ele alınmıstır. Dualistik ruh anlayısının problemlerine
deginilerek Ismail Fethi'nin ruh görüsünün problemleri belirlenmistir. Ayrıca ahlâk
görüsünde tasavvufî bakıs açısına sahip oldugunu tespit ettigimiz müellifin ahlâk
görüsü önce Osmanlı ahlâk düsüncesi içinde sonra da tasavvufî ahlâk içindeki yeri
tespit edilmeye çalısılmıstır.
Bu yöntemle ele aldıgımız görüslerinde müellifin bilhassa ruh konusunda
kendinden önceki düsünürlerden etkilenmis oldugunu, günümüzdeki bilimsel ve
felsefî verilerle yer yer ters düstügünü söyleyebiliriz. Ahlâk görüsünde ise belirli bir
sistem ortaya koymaktan ziyade bireysel ahlâk konularına deginerek ruh- beden
ayrımını öngören ruh görüsüne paralel, ruhun tezkiyesi konusu dısına pek
çıkmamıstır. Bu itibarla çalısmamızın niteligi Ismail Fethi nezdinde yeni ve orjinal
fikirler ortaya çıkarmaktan çok, bilinmeyen bir düsünürün fikirlerinin degerlendirilmesi
ve düsünce dünyamıza kazandırılması olarak özetlenebilir.In this study, namely \"Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality\", Ismail Fethi\'s
views regarding spirit and morality, which we determined that have not been studied
before, are discussed and those views of the author are attempted to be evaluated
from the point of philosophy.
The authors\' view of spirit is examined in the frame of mind philosophy, while his
view of morality is examined in the frame of moral philosophy. Since, in his views
about spirit Ismail Fethi adopts dualistic approach, his views on that subject are
compared with the primary dualistic philosophers\'. The problems of dualistic spirit
concept are mentioned and the problems of Ismail Fethi\'s view of spirit are pointed
out. Moreover, as we identified that regarding his view of morality the author adopts
sufi perspective, the position of his moral view in the Ottoman moral thought and in
the sufi morality is tried to be determined.
We can say that in his views, which we examined with the method depicted
above, regarding his view of spirit, in particular, the author is affected from the
scholars before him. We can also say that in some aspects these views contradict
with the contemporary scientific and philosophic findings. About his view of morality,
it can be said that rather than composing a certain system, he mentioned more on
the individual morality matters. In parallel with the view of spirit which presumes spritbody
distinction, he barely went beyond the matter of purification of the soul. Thus,
rather than revealing Ismail Fethi\'s new and original thoughts, the character of our
study can be summarized as an evaluation of the thoughts of an unknown scholar
and bringing his contribution in our contemporary thought
