İhsan Oktay Anar – Tiamat

“In the beginning everything was cold, empty and meaningless. The Holy Wind was blowing with caressing eddies over the waters, and in the pitch-black night when the sun and moon, the signs and the stars were not created now, his eyes were opened with a miraculous touch, and he was consoling himself personally , that is, the blind nature, which sees the darkness itself again. The unknown silhouette of the other steel beast, his awakening and incarnation, was almost motionless under the swift light of the surface. ” We are in a wonderful story, both inside and outside of that unknown, motionless silhouette, in the world that İhsan Oktay Anar created in the deep sea.

George Orwell – Animal Farm

Overworked and abused animals one day gather and take over the farm where they live. Finally, they have the word, they are determined to create a more just and equal society on the farm. They begin to work to establish this new system under the leadership of the pigs. Although this order initially enabled the development of the farm, in time, unforeseen difficulties will arise and a more ruthless regime will be established than before. Animal Farm is George Orwell’s second well-known contemporary classic novel and a striking political satire. One of the most adequate system criticisms ever written, this novel reveals how a freedom-oriented revolution can evolve into one-man. George Orwell’s allegory remains fresh today in every situation and place where freedom is attacked.

Sabahattin Ali – Madonna in a Fur Coat

Madonna in a Fur Coat, first published in 1943, is still among the most popular and today sold books . Since the day it was published, many researches and studies have been done on the book, which has sold more than 1 million copies, and theses have been written about it, but the secret of this success has not been fully resolved. The biggest share that makes it so special and still being talked about is of course Sabahattin Ali’s master pen and successful soul analysis.

Get Ready for a Shocking Love Story You’ll Read Again and Again!

The work, which has made a name for itself with its subject, is shown in the middle of the most valuable novels of Turkish literature. The novel, which can also be described as a spiritual narrative, is actually shaped around three main themes: love, loneliness and alienation. Although Madonna in a Fur Coat may seem more like a love story, in the novel we actually witness a person’s process of isolation and alienation from society. Within the framework of spiritual analysis, Sabahattin Ali describes this feeling of alienation and loneliness so adequately that he makes us feel these feelings as if we are living them while reading.

Destiny does not give up on humanity. The moment is being written over and over again.

Could a person change even in just seven days?

Could it be written again, baht?

Of course, everything could have changed in only seven days…

Just like a reed in a reed reed turns into a “ney” that can make heartfelt sounds after seven phases…

The Louvre Museum, located on the banks of the Seine River in Paris, contains more than 350 thousand works of art. The museum, which consists of various parts such as Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Egypt, the royal gardens and the glass pyramid, draws attention as it is the first museum opened after the French Revolution. From Leonardo Da Vinci to Botticelli, from Michelangelo to Théodore Géricault, we have examined the works that you should definitely see in the museum, where the iconic works of the world’s most valuable artists are located.

Mona Lisa

The Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo da Vinci in the early 1500s, may be the most famous painting in the world. Mona Lisa, one of the rare works completed by the artist, has been under the auspices of the Louvre Museum since 1797. It is believed that the lady depicted in the work, which is also on the national heritage list of France, is Lisa Gherardini , the wife of a Florentine merchant. Even if there is not a single point of the work that has not been examined, which strengthened its cult status after it was stolen by a museum employee in 1911, its mysterious atmosphere never loses its effect.

Liberty Leading the People

Eugène Delacroix’s painting Liberty Leading the People, made to immortalize the July Revolution of 1830, is owned by the Louvre. One of the most expensive works ever. The work, which deals with the 3-day popular uprising that ended the domination of the Bourbon Dynasty in France, perfectly combines the strict reality of the events with the romantic form of Delocroix. The work, which inspired many things from the Statue of Liberty in America to the album cover of Coldplay, has been on display at the Louvre Museum since 1874.

Venus de Milo

One of the most valuable examples of Ancient Greek Sculpture art, Vénus de Milo, BC. It is estimated that it was made in the 100s. It is believed that the 203 cm tall marble statue symbolizes Aphrodite, the goddess of love and pleasantness. Discovered on the Greek island of Milos in 1820, Vénus de Milo is the XVIII. It was brought to the country by Louis. Many details about the statue, especially the missing limbs, still remain a mystery. So much so that there are even those who believe that the statue is an extremely successful replica.

The Wedding at Cana

Veronese’s most famous work, The Wedding at Cana, tells a story from the Old Testament in the Bible. Specially built by a monastery in Venice, The Wedding at Cana is about Jesus’ first miracle, turning water into wine. The work, which is the largest painting in the Louvre with its dimensions of 6.77 m x 9.9 m, ironically hangs in front of the rather small Mona Lisa. Iconic figures such as the Ottoman Emperor Suleiman the Magnificent and the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V are in the middle of the painting, which includes 127 people.

Dying Slave

The Dying Slave, made by Italian Renaissance artist Michelangelo, together with the Rebellious Slave next to it, was actually Pope II. It was ordered to be put in the tomb of Julius. Michelangelo’s work was not requested as it was found too large, as the tomb had to be prepared on a smaller scale due to budgetary constraints. After this cancellation, the work, which was partially finished in the middle of 1513-1516, is one of the most beautiful examples of sculpture art in reflecting the human form and feelings.

Raft of the Medusa

Although he died at the age of 32, Raft of the Raft is the most precious of the 114 works left behind by Théodore Gericault, who had an extremely productive profession. Medusa is betting on a historical scandal. Only 10 of the 150 people on the ship Medusa, which crashed in 1816, survived. In the following days, it is revealed that the captain of the ship left others to die in order to save himself and the first class passengers with him, and an uprising broke out in the country. After long researches, this iconic work of the artist, who built a replica of the raft in his workshop in order to reflect the details accurately, strikes those who see it with its size of 5 x 7 meters.

The Winged Victory of Samothrace

This statue, also known as “The Nike of Samothrace”, depicts Nike, the God of Victory in Greek mythology. The statue, which is estimated to have been made in the middle of the 1st and 3rd centuries BC, is considered one of the most successful examples of the Hellenistic Period. Discovered on a small island in the North Aegean in 1863, the artifact has been in the collection of the Louvre Museum since 1884. Although the origin of the statue is not known for certain, many details, from the marble used to the drawings on it , indicate that the statue was created by an artist from Rhodes.

The Coronation of Napoleon

The Coronation of Napoleon, completed by the French painter Jacques-Louis David in the middle of 1805-1807, is the Notre of Emperor Napoleon I. It’s about the coronation ceremony at Dame Cathedral. The artist, who was the official painter of Napoleon and was present at the ceremony in 1804, is known for his historical wall photographs. This work, which draws attention with its 6.21 m x 9.79 m dimensions, fascinates those who see it with its realism, as Napoleon himself said. Another copy of the painting, in which the artist’s ability to reflect the details is indisputably proven, is in the Palace of Versailles.

Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss

“Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss”, which tells the love story between Psyche and Cupid, is the most famous work of Italian sculptor Antonio Canova. The statue, completed in 1793 by the artist, who is a representative of neoclassicism, is one of the most romantic works in the Louvre Museum. Based on the story in the iconic poem of the Latin writer Ovid, titled Metamorphoses, the work depicts the moment when Princess Psyche, who was poisoned and fell into a deep sleep, was awakened by Cupid by kissing her.

Azize Caferzade – Sultan of Love

Miço will now spend a long part of his life with them. Our narrator, who wrote his experiences years later, enters into a moral questioning and brings the wild world and the civilized world against each other.

Juan José Saer, during this process of memory refreshment and questioning, manages to establish a lively and complementary link between the era in which he lived and the time period five centuries ago, when he built the narrative; First of all, it is this feature that makes Nobody’s unique.

Considered one of Saer’s most valuable works, Nobody’s, with Gökhan Aksay’s translation from the Spanish original…

“Although little known outside of Latin America, Saer’s most valuable works of the last fifty years are in the midst of Saer’s texts. Forlorn

is a heavy, extraordinary point in the narrative navigation, reached by the extraordinary vision of a unique author with his language and literature, with unmatched devotion.”

The physician who examines him also gets his share from it. Then, this disease begins to affect the entire city. The government, on the other hand, quarantines the blinded people in a place made from prison.

Things change from here. Because the government cannot control the disease. The number of blind people increasing day by day increases the population in quarantine. This will cause a change in the balance of power. Gangs begin to form in the quarantine zone. These gangs, who extort money from everyone, kill and rape people. The one who watches all this closely is the wife of the physician. This woman is the only person who has not been diagnosed with blindness. She went to prison by pretending not to leave her husband alone, and she is witnessing all the brutality here.

One day, as a result of the fire in the prison, people manage to escape from the quarantine zone. There is no one left in the country who is not blind anymore. They must create a new order and succeed in keeping up with this system. Well, but how?

Did you know?

Written by José Saramago in 1995, Blindness was adapted for the big screen in response to the interest it received. The cinema’s entry into the box office took place exactly 13 years after the publication of the book, namely in 2008.
