Istanbul encyclopedia
Written ‘Istanbulin Encyclopedia’ jumped in front of the series Historiador Y Escraft Risad Ekrem CoachBorn in Istanbul in 1905 and was known for his works on Otoman culture and civilization. Despite the author’s most comprehensive and influential creation, Kosu dedicated his life, the ‘Coconer’ (on Mehmet Coconer ‘ Istanbul’s empty hippie poet).
Launched in 1944, this work was one of the most original efforts Record all the features of IstanbulFrom its streets to its myths, from its people to its business.
Lifetime of love for Istanbul
Born in Istanbul, Risad Ekrem Kosu is known for him The best storytelling skill And in addition to being a historian, his interest in details. According to him, Istanbul is not just a city where he was born and raised An interest, a lifestyle. This great love led him to a magnificent plan that extended his life: ‘Istanbul’s Encyclopedia’. However, this encyclopedia is not a consultation book in the classical meaning, but A city novel; A urban literature that is intertwined with reality and imagination.
When producing encyclopedia, Kosu is not only based on educational resources. Rather Growing popular memoryRumors, old newspaper cuts, rumors, old photos, file documents, observations and stories of the ears. As a result, not only the best events or popular buildings of the city, but its unknown characters, its lost businesses and a living creation The individuality of the everyday life.
The unusual stories of Istanbul city
One of the most significant features of ‘Istanbul Encyclopedia’ Historical truth and literary fiction. Kosu’s Istanbul is a story that can be tested with documents and a myth in the memory of people. For example, “one who walks on the streets of the night” as characters Attack of a vampire and people“Oh”Men’s disguised women That attack coffee shops ”they find a place in the encyclopedia.
These cases are highly intensified and recorded with reports such as Kosu, and “the law of the incident is not determined”. This approach considers this not only encyclopedia as a document A story and a file.
Kosu’s plan is to produce a complete encyclopedia that includes A to Z in all its aspects. However, for the rest of his life, He only reached the letter ‘g’ And can be published Total 11 blocks. The remaining materials, drafts, drawings, cuts and manuscripts reveal the amount of this unrefinited dream after his death.
In unpublished sections, there are manuscripts and drafts of texts in a large number of themes, from Galata to Kedikpasa, from Kolhane Park to Kalata Mevlevhanesi. Not only words in the archive of Kosu, but Charts, newspaper cuts made from newspaper cuts And one of the most important Illustrators of that time, Sabhaha Rota Boskale, the roles of the characters. In this sense, ‘Istanbul encyclopedia’ is written in the city, but also the visual and hearing memory.
According to Kosu, who is Istanbulus?
One of the best ideas of Kosu in encyclopedia is its definition Ichtanbul. According to him, in order to be considered a person as Istanbuli, in the true meaning of the word, Must be married in Istanbul. This definition is beyond the classic opinion of Cittiyantus and the city is not established by body boundaries, but The main experiences. In Kosu’s point of view, you can only marry a city that you marry, that is, in life.
Risad Ekrem Kosu’s work is a project Alternative history Before the history of traditional history. In their encyclopedia, people who do not mention government, institutions or official history do not mention events and stories. Along with this approach, the kosu sees the Istanbul’s somewhat and unregistered face. All of them, From a street madnessUp to the crazy neighborhoodThrough the statistics of the show’s life, they have a place in this great post.
File sources are available online in the name of the creations of the encyclopedia, the encyclopedia modules and articles.The biggest record of the wonderful Istanbul‘The university and salt are online with the cooperation of Katir.
