Discussions of Versification in Minstrel Tale Tradition and Analysis of Koroglu Poems in Formulaic Theory
No full textThis study is a structural debate on dogmatic idea of "poems of minstrel tales should be and is preserved as inherited from traditional heritage" developed in Anatolian minstrel tale tradition studies in the course of time. Studies of pioneers of area such as M. Fuat Koprulu, Pertev Naili Boratav, Sukru Elgin, Umay Gunay, Ali Berat Alptekin are said to have an affective role on developing and fixing of this perception, while a mass of followers, even could be considered in a bibliographic study are still defending. It can easily be said that the perception rooted in minstrel tradition still forms the approaches toward other folk literature products such as folk song, epic, mani etc. and specially some polemical concepts of Turkish folk music studies like authenticity, variation etc. In treatment of the problematic, this study contextualizes Anatolian Koroglu narratives, on which extensive research labour was given and serves as a proposal repository to understand academic tradition. The study examines definitions of researchers on both Koroglu narrating tradition and generalizations in folk literature researches paying attention to all minstrel tales. The texts and personal ideas will be examined through formula conceptualization of Oral Composition Theory. Using more than one version of Koroglu narratives, dilemmas and dogmatical compliances stemming from inalterability theory will be examined; in other words, using the Oral Composition Theory, self rules of minstrelsy and not the academic ones will be explained
Evaluating the Koroglu Epic by Greimas' Method: A Structural Approach to Koroglu's Journey to Istanbul
No full textThe epic narratives of Koroglu has been told and known among all the Turkic speaking people who live in the geographical area from the Eastern Turkestan to Balkans' that is called Turkic world. Besides the Turkic speaking people, the narratives of Koroglu has also been non-Turkic people in the region. As one of the neighbor country of Turks Iran is the first place where the epic narratives of Koroglu were collected. Alexander Chodzko, who worked as an officer at the Russian Embassy in Iran, in between 1830-1841, and while working at the embassy he had collected or had made collected 13 episodes Koroglu in Iran, and published those text in London, in 1842. Although there has been number of scholarly studies have been carried on the Koroglu epic narratives collected from Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and eastern Turkestan, since A. Chodzko's first publication of Koroglu narratives collected from the Turks living in Iran, there has been no study or publication in Turkey. in order to make use in my PhD thesis, I have carried on number of fieldworks in Iran, in between 2011-2018 and during which I have collected number Koroglu epic narratives from the Turks living in different regions of Iran. One of the Koroglu episodes I had collected during those fieldworks is the episode named "Koroglu's Journey to Istanbul" that was narrated by Ashik Mesi Pagayi. the subject matter of this episode is Koroglu's marriage to Nigar Hamm who had fallen in love with Koroglu and asks him to take her from Istanbul to Chamlibel where Koroglu and his brave man reside. the importance of this episode is to be told in accordance with the narration technique special to the Koroglu narratives among Turkic epic narration traditions. As it has been known that as the whole Koroglu cycle consists of number episodes and a narrator may perform only episode at setting in Iran, and when a narrator of Koroglu is going to perform an episode other than the first episode, the narrator must begin with abstracting the first episode. As a result of summarizing the first episode the narrators both able to provides information on the previous happenings, and prepare their audience to the current episode he is going to narrate. This special Koroglu narration technique of Turkish ashiks living in Iran has also been applied by Ashik Megi Pagayi while telling the episode of "Koroglu's Journey to Istanbul". in this article, I would like to examine the above mentioned episode in accordance with the "structural reading" which has not been used much by the epic scholars. Most of the epic studies in Turkey based on the "episode" and "motif' analyses, whereas there have been no analyses have made use of the "Syntactical Model" or "Narrative Sequences" which was developed P. Larivaille, J. M. Adams and A.J. Greimas as a new interpretation of the structural analyses developed by V. Propp. Therefore, in my article on the evaluation of the episode of "Koroglu's Journey to Istanbul", I would like to fulfill this lack of the usage on this new method that I will make use of both the "Syntactical Model" or "Narrative Sequences", and the "Actantial Model". in my evaluation, first I would like to provide a summary of narrative, and then I will examine the text in accordance with the "Syntactical Model" under the "Narrative Sequences". Then, under the title "Actants and Players" the episode will be fractured into sequences that in accordance with the model there are six actants and each of them will be evaluated according to the players. in my final part, I would like to reach to the conclusions that I will be able to show how each element in the episode has been effecting the main structure of the episode; how each of those elements being included or excluded from the episode and also the result of those inclusion and exclusion, and also while structuring the episode as a whole what kind of a path the narrator is being implied
Evaluating the koroglu epic by Greimas’ method: A structural approach to Koroglu’s journey to Istanbul [Köroğlu’nu greimas’la okumak: “Köroğlu’nun Istanbul seferi”ne yapisalci bir yaklaşim*]

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
High technology industry associations move entrepreneurs into global markets
No full textIn this period of globalization, little is known of the democratic action of entrepreneurs to collaborate through the industry association to achieve competitive advantage. This paper conceptualizes a theoretical model that clarifies the variations in both trust and power-dependence of institutional structures to achieve global trade for entrepreneurs. The research investigates the relationship between an industry association\u27s innovation process and the organizational structuring of enterprise development activities to achieve competitive advantage. An outline of a typology of industry association structures and trust is examined through case studies that explain the variations in their capacity to implement innovative actions

The usability of earthquake resistant steel bars as shear connectors in composite structures
No full textShear connectors are used to avoid potential slipping between steel and concrete and slipping due to deformations on a concrete plate. Many materials having different shapes and dimensions are tested as shear connectors. In this study, the availability of earthquake resistant steel bars, manufactured the same length as headed studs, is investigated. For this purpose, 4 push-out tests accomplished to the composite beams with profiled steel sheeting, in which earthquake resistant steel bars are used as the shear connector, and 4 push-out tests, in which headed studs are used as the shear connector, are undertaken. In the experimental section, 8 push-out tests performed on 16 slab specimens with different slab height, and different numbers and arrangements of shear connectors. As a result of the tests, it is suggested that earthquake resistant steel can be used as an alternative material for shear connectors. (C) 2014 Sharif University of Technology.
