Article Citation Count: 0Dirty White Candles: Ernest Hemingway's Encounter With the East(Univ Texas Press, 2012) Kenne, Mel[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 3The Not So New Turkish Woman: a Statistical Look at Women in Two Istanbul Neighborhoods(2009) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Güler, FazilUsing survey data gathered from nearly 400 women living in two Istanbul neighborhoods this article explores issues of work education family and feminism. In addition to presenting the findings we argue that there is a continued gap between the ideal of the Republican woman and the actual practices of this group of Turkish women. The picture of these Turkish women that emerged from this survey is that of women still largely in the grips of an ideal born in the early days of the Turkish Republic. However it also became clear that there also exist rifts between belief and practice in the lives of these women: they seem to believe in many facets of the Republican woman while at the same time the practices they engage in belie some aspects of this belief. Ultimately it seems that in some respects they are in the process of constructing their own idea of a Turkish woman while at the same time some aspects of these women's lives remain deeply bound by traditional notions of gender.Book Part Citation Count: 0Paul Bowles as I Knew Him(Brill Academic Publishers, 2014) Sawyer-Lauçanno, Christopher[Abstract Not Available]short-survey.listelement.badge Citation Count: 1Prayer Bead Gestures and Television: a Case Study on Cultural Inspirations for Interaction Art Education(MIT Press Journals, 2009) Özcan, Oğuzhan; Akdemir, Emre; O'Neil, Mary Lou; Ayça Ünlüer, AdviyeThe authors interactive design-art educators recount their experience in using cultural inspirations as part of student exercises. The authors found that although students proposed various design concepts drawing from the surrounding culture very few moved beyond experience design art. In order to remedy this situation without giving explicit direction the authors encouraged students to examine cultural habits and/or artifacts from their past or their current lives in the hope that this could generate innovative design ideas. One such project is the Prayer Bead Gesture Based TV Input Device. ©2009 ISAST.Article Citation Count: 2Supplementally and the Sonnet: a Reading of Ronsard's Les Amours Diverses 45(University of Nebraska Press, 2005) Gumpert, Matthew[Abstract Not Available]Conference Object Citation Count: 0The Upsides of Expatriation and Exile for Turkish Writers and Writers Living in Turkey(Palacky Univ, 2014) Kenne, MelWhile Turkey gets plenty of news coverage because of political oppression that often leads Turkish writers to flee their country and seek exile in countries with more tolerant governments it has also served as a nesting ground for writers who have left their native countries because they seek the stimulation that comes from living in a country with a different language and culture from their own or because they wish to spend time in an area traditionally associated with the wellsprings of Western cultural values and ideals. This essay explores how exile both self-imposed and involuntary can function for Turkish writers such as Nazim Hikmet and Zulfu Livaneli and for expatriates such as John Ash John Freely and myself as a means of developing their creative potential and of achieving greater international recognition.
