Grâce à ses exceptionnelles capacités, un homme imprégné, depuis on adolescence, d'un attachement passionnel pour sa nation et d'une farouche détermination à en transformer le destin, a réussi, en seulement une décennie, à libérer le sol ancestral de l'occupation militaire imposé par les puissance étrangères avant d'y établir un nouvel État résolument moderne.

When Mustafa Kemal Atatürk became the first president of Turkey in 1923, he set about transforming his country into a secular republic where nationalism sanctified by science--and by the personality cult Atatürk created around himself--would reign supreme as the new religion. This book provides the first in-depth look at the intellectual life of the Turkish Republic's founder. In doing so, it frames him within the historical context of the turbulent age in which he lived, and explores the uneasy transition from the late Ottoman imperial order to the modern Turkish state through his life and ideas. Shedding light on one of the most complex and enigmatic statesmen of the modern era, M. Sükrü Hanioglu takes readers from Atatürk's youth as a Muslim boy in the volatile ethnic cauldron of Macedonia, to his education in nonreligious and military schools, to his embrace of Turkish nationalism and the modernizing Young Turks movement. Who was this figure who sought glory as an ambitious young officer in World War I, defied the victorious Allies intent on partitioning the Turkish heartland, and defeated the last sultan? Hanioglu charts Atatürk's intellectual and ideological development at every stage of his life, demonstrating how he was profoundly influenced by the new ideas that were circulating in the sprawling Ottoman realm. He shows how Atatürk drew on a unique mix of scientism, materialism, social Darwinism, positivism, and other theories to fashion a grand utopian framework on which to build his new nation.

Mustafa Kemal - latterly and better known as Ataturk - is without doubt the towering figure of modern Turkish history. But what was his path to power? And how did his early career as a soldier in the Ottoman army affect his later decisions as President? The Young Ataturk tracks the lesser covered period of Kemal's life - from the War of Independence to the founding of the Republic - and shows that it is only by understanding Kemal's military career that one can fully comprehend how he evolved as one of the twentieth century's most extraordinary statesmen. Delving into Kemal's military writings, orders, and political decisions, speeches, proclamations and private correspondences, this book provides a rounded and nuanced portrait of the making of a major statesman.

"Sumptuous, surprising, and profound."—Orhan PamukMustafa Kemal Atatürk is hailed as one of the most charismatic political leaders of the twentieth century, but little is known today about his one and only wife, Latife Hanim. A multilingual intellectual who read law at the Sorbonne, she was a suffragist who closely followed women's movements around the world.Her marriage set her apart from her contemporaries, raising her to the pinnacle of political power, truly able to work for the betterment of the women of Turkey. But just after two and a half years, Atatürk divorced her and Hanim was forgotten and maligned. Public opinion became dominated by the image of a sharp-tongued, quarrelsome woman who strained Atatürk's nerves.In the first biography to be written on Latife Hanim, Ipek Çalislar reveals an astonishing woman, ahead of her time.Ipek Çalislar is a journalist and writer. She has worked for the Turkish daily Cumhuriyet for twelve years, as news editor and later as the Sunday supplement editor.

In this major new biography of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and the first to appear in English based on Turkish sources, Andrew Mango strips away the myth, to show the complexities of one of the most visionary, influential, and enigmatic statesmen of the century. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was virtually unknown until 1919, when he took the lead in thwarting the victorious Allies' plan to partition the Turkish core of the Ottoman Empire. He divided the Allies, defeated the last Sultan, and secured the territory of the Turkish national state, becoming the first president of the new republic in 1923, fast creating his own legend. Andrew Mango's revealing portrait of Atatürk throws light on matters of great importance today-resurgent nationalism, religious fundamentalism, and the reality of democracy.

Byzantion&'dan İstanbul&'a uzanan, heyecan yüklü bir serüven... Sarayburnu&'nda, Atatürk heykelinin ayaklarının dibinde bir ceset, Avuçlarında antik bir pere.... Ama ne bu ceset son kurban, ne de bu antik para son sikke... Yedi kurban, yedi hükümdar, yedi sikke, yedi kadim mekan. Ve tek bir gerçek: Bu şehrin gizemli tarihi… "Şehre bakıyorduk denizden. Sisler içindeydi İstanbul... Sisler içinde deniz... Sisler içinde teknemiz. Sultanahmet&'in minareleriydi görülen, Ayasofya&'nın kubbesi, Topkapı Sarayı&'nın kuleleri. Hiç yağmalanmamış, yıkılmamış, kirletilmemiş gibiydi şehir. Bembeyaz bir sisle örtmüştü doğa, ne varsa görüntüyü çirkinleştiren. Güneş doğmadan bir anlığına beliren bir hayal gibi... Büyülü bir bulut gibi... Bir masal imgesi gibi... Yeni kurulmuş bir kent gibi... Taze bir başlangıç gibi... Genç, umutlu, güzel... İstanbul'a bakıyorduk denizden. Ölülerimizin yüzlerine bakıyorduk: Onların gözlerindeki kendi kederimize… Çaresizliğimize bakıyorduk, avuçlarımızda büyüyen zavallılığa, kanımızda filizlenen korkaklığa... Elimizden alman hayata bakıyorduk... Güneşli günlerimize, umut dolu sabahlara, eğlenceli bahar akşamlarına... Sönen anılarımıza bakıyorduk, ölen hayallerimize, yıkılan düşlerimize... Sönen anılarımızı, ölen hayallerimizi, yıkılan düşlerimizi yüklenip yorgun bir şilep gibi bizden uzaklaşan şehrimize... Şehrimizle birlikte yitirdiğimiz kendimize bakıyorduk..."

Early in his career, Adolf Hitler took inspiration from Benito Mussolini, his senior colleague in fascism―this fact is widely known. But an equally important role model for Hitler and the Nazis has been almost entirely neglected: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey. Stefan Ihrig’s compelling presentation of this untold story promises to rewrite our understanding of the roots of Nazi ideology and strategy.Hitler was deeply interested in Turkish affairs after 1919. He not only admired but also sought to imitate Atatürk’s radical construction of a new nation from the ashes of defeat in World War I. Hitler and the Nazis watched closely as Atatürk defied the Western powers to seize government, and they modeled the Munich Putsch to a large degree on Atatürk’s rebellion in Ankara. Hitler later remarked that in the political aftermath of the Great War, Atatürk was his master, he and Mussolini his students.This was no fading fascination. As the Nazis struggled through the 1920s, Atatürk remained Hitler’s “star in the darkness,” his inspiration for remaking Germany along nationalist, secular, totalitarian, and ethnically exclusive lines. Nor did it escape Hitler’s notice how ruthlessly Turkish governments had dealt with Armenian and Greek minorities, whom influential Nazis directly compared with German Jews. The New Turkey, or at least those aspects of it that the Nazis chose to see, became a model for Hitler’s plans and dreams in the years leading up to the invasion of Poland.

Die Erzählerin sucht ihre Wurzeln, denn ihrer "Mutterzunge" Türkisch ist sie durch viele Jahre in Berlin entfremdet. Sie verliebt sich in den arabischen Schriftgelehrten Ibni Abdullah, der sie in die Sprache der "heiligen" Liebe, die Sprache des Korans, einführt. Mittels der "Großvaterzunge" Arabisch, das vor Atatürks Reformen in der Türkei gesprochen und geschrieben wurde, gelingt ihr eine Rekonstruktion ihrer Herkunft. Emine Sevgi Özdamar erzählt begleitend das Märchen vom Bauern, der aus seinem armen, aber überschaubaren Dorf ins ferne Deutschland gelangt - aus dem türkischen Märchen wird bundesdeutsche Realität, aus dem Bauern ein Straßenkehrer. Ein bäuerliches Volk verwandelt sich in die Dienstbotenkaste westdeutscher Großstädte. Zuletzt sinkt sogar Ophelia von der Bühne ihres Heimatlandes zur Putzfrau eines deutschen Theaters hinab. Ein feines, kluges, souveränes Buch - es ist unmöglich, sich dem Zauber von Emine Sevgi Özdamars Sprache und ihrer koboldhaften Ironie, die keinen ungeschoren läßt, zu entziehen.

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was a Muslim visionary, revolutionary statesman, and founder of the Republic of Turkey. The West knows him best as the leading Ottoman officer in World War I€™s Battle of Gallipoli€”a defeat for the Allies, and the Ottoman empire€™s greatest victory. Gaining fame as an exemplary military officer, he went on to lead his people in the Turkish War of Independence, abolishing the Ottoman Sultanate, emancipating women, and adopting western dress. Deeply influenced by the Enlightenment, Atatürk sought to transform the empire into a modern and secular nation-state, and during his presidency, embarked upon a program of impressive political, economic, and cultural reforms. Militarily and politically he excelled at all levels of conflict, from the tactical, through the operational, to the strategic, and into the rarified realm of grand strategy. His ability to integrate the immediate with the ultimate serves as an important lesson for leaders engag
