Description
Seminar in Ottoman and Turkish Studies presents Book Launch – Ghoulyabânî by Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar – English translation.
Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar (1864-1944) was a prominent Turkish author in the late Ottoman and early republican Turkey, and now, for the first time, one of his most popular novels, Gulyabani (Ghoulyabânî), originally published in 1913, is available in English translation. A group of University of Toronto alumni have turned what was once a student club of literature enthusiasts in the Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations into a publishing house, and have just released their second book.
Come join the founders of Translation Attached publishing house, U of T alumni Nefise Kahraman, Karolina Dejnicka, and Yasemin Mangal, as they discuss the life and times of Gürpınar, the enduring appeal of Ghoulyabânî, and the journey of publishing the novel in English translation.
Copies will be available for purchase. Purchases only in cash.
