        Islamic Art of Illumination

        Classical Tazhib from Ottoman to Contemporary Times

        by Sema Onat

        Islamic Art of Illumination presents an amazing mixture of classical Turkish illumination patterns and their contemporary interpretations. It illustrates how illumination was applied to various articles during the Ottoman period, including pictures, royal edicts and insignia, tiles, chests, gun holsters, shields, and even costumes prepared for the Sultan and his family. It also shows how today illumination has extensively been applied on architectural surfaces, book covers, manuscripts, carpets, textiles, ceramics, glass and wood panels, and metal works. The author, a contemporary illumination artist, displays her incredible pieces of art, skillfully swirling her imagination together with classical Turkish Islamic patterns of illumination. In richly illuminated designs using motifs such as buds and roses, as well as stylized and naturalistic flowers, she exhibits all of the geometrical, foliate, and floral patterns used in the art.

        Burlesquing Hamlet: Cultural Exchange and Appropriation in the Victorian Age

        by Gunaydin Albay, Neslihan

        This study analyzes several burlesques to examine how such social and political comment takes place through a form of dialog in which the burlesque engages with the cultural claims of serious revivals of Shakespeare. It concentrates on how burlesque dramas’ treatment of Shakespearean plays reflects key attitudes and tensions in Victorian society, highlighting these through the incongruities between Shakespeare as known to their audience and as presented in the plays. The theatrical burlesques composed in the Victorian age adapt Shakespeare to address the habits, tastes, cultural and social values and preoccupations of their audiences. Hence, issues of social class, gender, race, political topicality, and the social status of the plays’ addressees, are addressed. The changes and tensions in Victorian drama through burlesques are central to an understanding of nineteenth-century popular culture and society. By focusing on concepts of high and low culture in Shakespearean burlesques, both externally and internally, this study takes a distinctive angle which integrates literary analysis with study of audience and cultural reception to provide a better understanding of the cultural significance of these humorous satiric plays.

        Nunca serás un verdadero Gondra (You’ll never be a true Gondra)

        by Borja Ortiz de Gondra

        Borja works as a translator for an international organization in New York, where he lives with his partner, John. One night, he receives a phone call from his cousin, who informs him that his brother has just died and that the cousin has something to give him. Many years earlier, in the 1990s, Borja left the Basque Country and cut his ties with a family and a land that were poisoned by hatred and incomprehension. In the United States he became a different person, someone who had torn up his roots and buried his past in order to embrace a present in which he could live, freely, in another language. But one phone call can be enough to demolish the highest wall. Now, this ill-fated son of a family that has fallen on hard times finds he is the sole heir of the dilapidated mansion that looks out over the sea from its vantage point at the top of the town of Algorta. Only he can open the door and decide what to do with so many years of pain and silence. But healing the wounds is not easy and writing a book about the past may only serve to make them deeper.   Ortiz de Gondra has written a perceptive exploration of identity, memory and the possibility of shaping one’s own destiny beyond any boundaries that our family and our homeland may impose on us.
