Nach dem Tod von Werner Ende (2024) verliert die deutsche Nahostwissenschaft nun auch mit Udo Steinbach einen der ganz Großen auf dem Gebiet der modernen Islamstudien.

Eine ganze Generation Wissenschaftler:innen ist in den 80er bis frühen 2000er mit dem „Ende/Steinbach“ großgeworden.

And the exciting thing is that the text was written in Ottoman Turkish rather than Tatar.
It also contains a personal dedication from Akçura to the Orientalist Martin Hartmann.
We'll digitise it like the other volumes by Akçura, Ayaz Ishaki and Kajum Nasyri from the Hartmann Collection - promise!

When you finally decide to catalogue your old #Tatar booklets ... you discover, for example, a rare 1907 #Orenburg first edition of Yusuf Akçura's memoirs of a prison stay in 1906.

Newspaper from Azerbaijan

"Azadlıq" was printed in Azerbaijani Cyrillic until mid-2001, when it switched to the Latin alphabet, and for years it served as an opposition newspaper.
