Publication Metadata only Comparative ecocriticism: an introduction(Palgrave, 2017) Department of Comparative Literature; Ergin, Meliz; Faculty Member; Department of Comparative Literature; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 101428The introduction explains the rationale of the book, highlighting its contribution to ecocritical theory, comparative ecocriticism, and ecopoetics. The theoretical novelty of the book derives from its comparative and cross-disciplinary approach in the first two chapters which investigate the theoretically fertile links between deconstruction, social ecology, and new materialism. Ergin makes a compelling case for a new poetics structured around the concept of “entanglement,” and outlines entanglements in these three strands of thought so as to demonstrate the relevance of this concept in theoretical terms. She then examines the ecological intersections of nature and society through a comparative analysis of the works of the American poet Juliana Spahr and the Turkish writer Latife Tekin. As the first book-length study of comparative Turkish and American ecocriticism, the book responds to the immense need for theorizing about ecology and poetics across new geographical, cultural, and linguistic contexts.Publication Metadata only Coping with famines in Ottoman Anatolia (1650-1850)(Routledge, 2020) N/A; Çelik, Semih; Researcher; Graduate School of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AThis chapter attempts to stitch together that sporadic information to construct a longue duree analysis of famines that took place in Ottoman Anatolia for around two centuries defined by crises and reconfiguration. Pioneering studies have offered explanations for the late sixteenth-century political and demographic crisis in Ottoman Anatolia, focusing on the large-scale famines during the 1580–1630 period. Other studies on famines in the Ottoman Empire focus heavily on the later nineteenth century, a time when formal structures and policies of famine relief had been more firmly established by the Ottoman administrators. Historical famine studies seem, over a long period of continuing debates, to have come to an agreement that famines should be identified in connection to whether excessive deaths took place in a region or not. Bread prices in the pre-modern period show substantial short-term fluctuations due to frequent crises related to harvest conditions, transportation difficulties, wars and various other causes.Publication Metadata only Entwined narratives: Latife Tekin's ecopoetics(Palgrave, 2017) Department of Comparative Literature; Ergin, Meliz; Faculty Member; Department of Comparative Literature; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 101428N/APublication Metadata only Integrating and articulating environments: a challenge for Northern and Southern Europe - introduction(Swets and Zeitlinger B V, 2003) O'Brien, M; Seippel, Ornulf; Department of Sociology; Gökşen, Fatoş; Faculty Member; Department of Sociology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 51292N/APublication Metadata only Intimate multitudes: Juliana Spahr's ecopoetics(Palgrave, 2017) Department of Comparative Literature; Ergin, Meliz; Faculty Member; Department of Comparative Literature; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 101428This chapter inquires into Juliana Spahr’s ecopoetics to tease out entanglements on the level of form and language. First‚ it examines the tangle of various genres and literary traditions that comprise her work. Then it focuses on thisconnectionofeveryonewithlungs‚ and “Unnamed DragonFly Species” and “The Incinerator” from Well Then There Now, to explore Spahr’s connective reading methodology that interweaves the material and the semiotic, the personal and the political, and the local and the global. Spahr forges a posthumanist poetics that embodies the collective voices of human and nonhuman beings and the dynamic relationalities emerging from the ecological text. Foregrounding three concepts central to Spahr’s work—dis/connection, complicity, and accountability—Ergin highlights the entanglement of local and global ecologies and politics, thereby reconfiguring our understanding of temporal and spatial scales.Publication Metadata only Political economy of citizens' participation in environmental improvement: the case of Istanbul(Swets and Zeitlinger Group BV, 2003) Adaman, F; Zenginobuz, EO; Department of Sociology; Gökşen, Fatoş; Faculty Member; Department of Sociology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 51292N/APublication Metadata only Tissue welding by Thulium laser system: predosimetry studies(Routledge, 2009) Bilici, Temel; Tabakoğlu, Özgür; Topaloğlu, Nermin; Kurt, Adnan; Gülsoy, Murat; N/A; Department of Physics; Kalaycıoğlu, Hamit; Sennaroğlu, Alphan; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Department of Physics; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; College of Sciences; N/A; 23851Abstract Laser tissue welding predosimetry studies are performed on Wistar rat skin by using diode-pumped and fiber-coupled Thulium (Tm:YAP) laser system emitting at 1980-nm, which is developed for medical applications. The success of laser tissue welding at 100 mW ve 160 mW of Tm:YAP laser powers is analyzed by macroscopy and histology results. Tm:YAP laser dosimetry of 100 mW, 5 second (34,66 W/cm2 ) is found successful for tissue welding studies. / Özetçe Medikal uygulamalar için geliştirilen 1980-nm dalgaboyunda ışıma yapan diyot pompalı Tulyum (Tm:YAP) laser sistemi ile Wistar tipi sıçan derisi üzerinde laser doku kaynağı öndoz çalışmaları yapılmıştır. Tm:YAP laserinin 100 mW ve 160 mW güçlerinde uygulanan laser doku kaynağının başarısı makro fotoğraflar ve histolojik sonuçlar ile analiz edilmiştir. Tm:YAP laser sisteminin 100 mW, 5 saniye (34,66 W/cm2 ) dozu doku kaynağı çalışmaları için başarılı bulunmuştur.Publication Metadata only Towards an ethos for commoning the city introduction(Routledge, 2020) Özkan, Derya; N/A; Büyüksaraç, Güldem Baykal; Researcher; Koç University Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations (ANAMED) / Anadolu Medeniyetleri Araştırma Merkezi (ANAMED); N/A; N/AN/A
