A large number of poems, including a newly discovered imperial poem collection and the work of a poet fallen into oblivion, are discussed with regard to their multifarious functions and their contemporary lyrical appeal. Though most of these poets worked in conventional settings many of the articles in this volume point out how they broke taboos, glossed over violence, and promoted or questioned political rule, even as they appealed to their listeners on an emotional level. The authors provide ample evidence for the importance attributed to certain cities and places, as well as local affiliations and networks. These analyses show how premodern poetry operated as a tool of communication and formed an integral part of premodern social and political life.

Sie beleuchtet damit Ambivalenzen und kulturelle Verständigungsprobleme in dieser Beziehungsgeschichte. Ferner unterzieht die Autorin das Narrativ des feministischen Orientalismus in der Forschung einer kritischen Revision. Sie berücksichtigt die Rolle des Nationalstaates Türkei in der Etablierung von Beziehungen zwischen den Feministinnen. Somit vertieft dieser Band unser Verständnis von komplexen Vorgängen der interkulturellen Verständigung und der Geschlechterordnung als Strukturprinzipien globaler Moderne.; Elife Biçer-Deveci interprets the relationship of the international women’s movement in its early stage with methods of the entangled history and brings the perspective of Ottoman-Turkish feminists to the fore. Thereby, she highlights ambiguities and cultural communication problems in the history of this relationship. Beyond of that, the author subjects the narrative of feminist orientalism in current research to a critical revision. She includes the role of the nation-state Turkey in the relationship of feminists. Thus, the book deepens our knowledge about complex processes of intercultural understanding and of gender order as structural principles of the global modern era.
