{"title":"The Hellenic Literary Society at Constantinople between Ottomanism and Greek Irredentism","authors":"Artemis Papatheodorou","doi":"10.53979/yillik.2022.9","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.53979/yillik.2022.9","url":null,"abstract":"\"… the Turks, public servants or soldiers, remained in sum what they’ve always been, Barbarians making a life out of plunder and robbery...\" The above statement reveals how one of the finest institutions of Ottoman Greek letters and sciences, the Hellenic Literary Society at Constantinople, described the Turks in a petition to its honorary members, academics, university professors, and learned societies in the Allied countries and in those that had remained neutral during the Great War, just a month into the deliberations of the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. The picture of the Turk as a barbarian permeates the petition and juxtaposes that of the Greek as the bearer of civilization. In this way, the society attempted to elicit the support of Western intellectuals in favor of Greek irredentism. Such an approach was not unique to the Ottoman Greeks, as Armenians also employed a similar distinction between the Turks and themselves to enhance their national aspirations.2 Yet, such a snapshot of the society in the post-Armistice period can be misleading as to its sixty-odd year-long lifetime. The society had remained, for the most part, in favor of Ottomanism, and its endorsement of Greek irredentism tells us more about how and why multi-ethnic and multi-cultural empires can fail rather than providing an accurate depiction of the society throughout its existence.","PeriodicalId":430972,"journal":{"name":"Istanbul Research Institute","volume":"123 22","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113940130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article aims to unpack these tensions\u0000by examining descriptions and manifestations of xenophobia in post-Lausanne Turkey. It focuses on\u0000Anglo-Turkish encounters over employment in Istanbul in 1926, within a timeframe that extends from\u0000the Young Turk Revolution in 1908 to Turkey’s entrance into the League of Nations in 1932. The article\u0000traces the politics of employment in light of the traumatic impacts of the capitulations, encounters\u0000involving specific institutions, as well as broader geopolitical dynamics. It approaches Anglo-Turkish\u0000relations in the 1920s as a particularly revealing window onto postwar international politics and stresses\u0000the link that was “internationally” drawn in this decade between peoples’ “ability” and sovereignty.\u0000Through this emphasis, the article argues that competing projections about Muslim Turks’ ability “to\u0000stand by themselves” were central to descriptions and manifestations of xenophobia in post-Lausanne\u0000Turkey","PeriodicalId":430972,"journal":{"name":"Istanbul Research Institute","volume":"489 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133323319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
