Making use of archives, literary works, diaries, newspapers, almanacs, art works or cartoons, the contributors focus particularly on the ways in which women gained power and exercised agency in late Ottoman Empire and early Republican Turkey. The articles convincingly show that women's agency cannot be unearthed without narrating how women were involved in shaping their own and others' lives even in the most unexpected areas of their existence. The women's activities described here do not simply reflect modernizing trends or westernizing attitudes-or their defensive denial. They provide an array of local responses where "the local" can never be found (and should never be conceptualized) in its initial, unchanged, or authentic state Women History 19th century Turkey 551082 Women History 20th century Turkey 551083 Turkey History Ottoman Empire, 1288-1918 10143 Koksal, Duygu 551084 Falierou, Anastasia 551085 Ottoman Empire and its heritage ; v. 54 263724 bib-ros-sar-ros lcc 373144 403571 0 0 0 0 GENERAL SMNAL SMNAL OPEN 2024-08-06 672.00 1 HQ1726.7 S678K 2013 11100349965 2024-09-05 00:00:00 2024-08-06 1 672.00 BOOKGEN
