Turkish is one of the major languages in the world spoken by hundreds of millions of people in Europe and Asia. It is the official language of Turkey. Although many people study Turkish either in Turkey or abroad today, there is not a dictionary especially compiled for learners of Turkish as a foreign language. This dictionary has been produced to meet such a need. Therefore, it is more of a learners’ dictionary whose primary aim is to help students of Turkish who not only try to understand but also produce the language.

Turkish is a rich language with more than a hundred thousand words. Learners’ dictionaries are not expected to cover all the words for practical reasons because ordinary people or the educated for that matter normally use no more than a few thousand words. This dictionary covers most frequently used 4456 words. A clarifying sample Turkish sentence is provided together with its English translation for each meaning. These sample sentences are invaluable in that they help the learner to see the syntactic properties of words in addition to their denotations.

The Imagist movement, a radical departure from traditional poetry, emerged as a revolutionary literary turning point in the 20th century. Following the principle of economy and precision of language, the Imagist poets championed poetry devoid of ornament and emotional excess. The movement’s emphasis on directness, simplicity, and visual intensity reshaped the spirit of poetry, sparking profound reverberations in literature.

This book comprehensively explores the Imagist movement’s theoretical background and historical context, as well as the analysis of the poems and contributions of its key figures, such as T. E. Hulme, Ezra Pound, H.D., and Amy Lowell. It also includes selected poems from Imagist anthologies, providing readers with concrete examples that highlight the essence of Imagist poetry.

İbnü’l-Arabî metafiziğinin kalbi sayılan Fusûsu’l-Hikem, varoluşun ve insanın gizemini kader ekseninde çözen sarsıcı bir haritadır. Bu çalışma, Şeyh-i Ekber’in düşünce dünyasındaki, çoğu zaman pasif bir boyun eğme olarak yanlış yorumlanan yazgı kavramını, dinamik bir kader ontolojisi olarak yeniden keşfe çıkıyor.

Kitap; kaderin kör bir tesadüf ya da dayatılmış bir senaryo değil, varlığın kendi öz hakikatine (a’yân-ı sâbite) attığı bir imza olduğunu gözler önüne seriyor. İlâhî isimlerin tecellisi ile kulun iradesi arasındaki o muazzam dengeyi incelerken, insanın kendi kaderinin hem şahidi hem de aktif bir yürütücüsü olduğunu vurguluyor.

İbnü’l-Arabî Metafiziğinde Kaderin Ontolojisi: Fusûsu’l-Hikem Örneğinde Varlık ve Yazgı, kaderin kozmik ritmini ve varoluşsal derinliğini anlamak isteyen araştırmacılar, akademisyenler ve irfan meraklıları için vazgeçilmez bir başvuru kaynağı. Okuru, kaderi bir mahkûmiyet gibi yaşamaktan çıkarıp, onu ilâhî bir sır olarak idrak etmeye davet ediyor.
