Afterword
(Cambridge University Press, 2011) Weisbrode K.; Patel K.K.
In the time since our 2010 workshop, the European Union has generated a good deal of drama. A serious debt crisis in Greece was repeated in Ireland, Spain, Italy, and Portugal. It threatened to undermine the basic fabric of not only the Eurozone but also of the entire European project, according to some pessimists. Commitment to the implementation of drastic, but much-needed fiscal reforms stood against the idea of European solidarity and a radical, Europe-wide growth plan. The many reform steps that the member states agreed on brought partial remedy but most were concluded under considerable time pressure, in which global markets instead of parliamentary procedures dictated the speed and direction. What they did bring was greater power of oversight for Brussels, yet at the time of this writing, it is still unclear how and if the sovereign debt crisis will be resolved on a more permanent basis. Much of the commentary about the crisis, which in fact came to seem less like a crisis than a saga over the course of 2011 and 2012, placed the blame for it on two sources, primarily: the after effect of the 2008 global financial collapse and the structural flaws of the Maastricht Treaty. The latter case relates directly to the various themes and problems raised in the preceding chapters. To recapitulate the standard, although oversimplified and perhaps overdrawn calculus of German reunification: it was meant to take place within a stronger European institutional structure, which the Treaty of Maastricht and the various NATO-related promises – described in detail in Frédéric Bozo’s chapter – were supposed to bring about. Specifically, it also meant the adoption of a new currency – the Euro – that, largely on French insistence, Germany had to support and, largely on Jacques Delors’s insistence, Europe had to embrace as the means to counter Margaret Thatcher’s push for a liberalized internal market. Both went against the instincts of many people, particularly in West Germany where a strong Deutschmark and various forms of protection were sacrosanct, but Helmut Kohl agreed to the compromise. © Cambridge University Press 2013.

All the World Wide Web's a stage: improving students' information skills with dramatic video tutorials
(Emerald, 2013) Thornton, David E.; Kaya, Ebru
Purpose – The purpose of this article is to describe a collaborative project organised by Bilkent University Library, Turkey, to produce a series of instructional videos that are both informative and entertaining and also serve to market the library. Design/methodology/approach – The paper will outline the theoretical basis for the use of videos for library instruction, especially with reference to the habits and preferences of so-called Generation Y students and to the potential value of video for facilitating memory and learning. Findings – The use of humorous and interesting content, in a dramatised style, were found to improve Generation Y students’ learning and enjoyment of instructional videos. Practical implications – The development of the project demonstrates the practical and marketing benefits of collaboration by academic librarians with students and faculty. However, it proved more difficult to evaluate the efficiency of the final product in terms of influencing the attitude of students toward the library and library resources and thereby changing their behaviour when studying. Originality/value – The authors recommend that such library videos should definitely form part of an academic library’s information literacy programme, but should not constitute the sole element.

Ancienneté among the Non-Jurors: a study of Henry Dodwell
(Taylor & Francis, 2005) Leighton, C. D. A.
The article offers a study of the theological method of Henry Dodwell, the most distinguished British savant of the late Stuart period and a leading figure in the Non-Juring movement. The study takes the form of arguments for the extension of the contemporary dispute between the Ancients and Moderns, in its historiographical dimension, into the field of divinity; for substantial modification of the claims made in discussions of the dispute about the inherent conflict between the Renaissance’s desire for revivification of the past and its historical scholarship; and for reconsideration of the relationship between 17th century critical scholarship and the Enlightenment. r 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Antichrist's revolution: some Anglican apocalypticists in the age of the French wars
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, 2000) Leighton, C. D. A.
The article deals with the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century development of early modern English apocalyptic thought which permitted the identification of the Enlightenment and its political manifestations in Revolutionary France with the prophesied Antichrist. The importance of this phenomenon is discussed and a framework for further discussion of it, taken from general theories of apocalyptic, is provided. However, the article is chiefly concerned to go beyond existing, inadequate explanations of the phenomenon, which advert merely to the French wars and certain contemporary conspiracy theories, and seeks its origins and relationships in wider currents of British thought in the period and before. Notably, reference is made to the concern of the insular Counter-Enlightenment with rationalist christological heresy, the continuing vigour of the English tradition of apocalyptic exegesis and to contemporary renewed theological and pastoral emphasis on supernatural and dogmatic religion. However, popular thought is also adverted to and the phenomenon is situated within the history of the ideology of the British ancien régime. Throughout, the normality and acceptability of this apocalyptic thought in its contemporary setting is emphasized, implicitly suggesting a need to restrain historiographical emphasis on modernizing patterns of thought in treatments of the period.

Antikitenin öğrettikleri: Yeni Çağ Avrupa düşüncesinde yeni Stoacılık
(İlmi Etüdler Derneği, 2011) Özdemir, M. B.; Durgun, Fatih
Aşağıda da tartışılacağı gibi, özellikle Rönesans ve Reformasyon dönemlerinden itibaren stoacı felsefenin dönemin olumsuzluklarına antik mirasın diğer birçok öğesinden daha iyi çözüm önerdiğine inanılmıştır. Çoğunlukla bu felsefeyle özdeşleştirilen isimlere atıfta bulunularak oluşturulan söylemler, hem düşünsel tartışmalara hem de daha somut siyasi ve düşünsel programlara yön vermiştir. Bu yazıda da esasen, yeni stoacılık olarak tanımlanan düşünsel faaliyetin Yeni Çağ Avrupa tarihinde, sosyal, ekonomik, dinsel ve politik yıkımlar neticesinde ortaya çıkmaya başlayan merkezî devlet yönetimleri bünyesindeki yeri tartışılacaktır. Genel olarak bu merkezî yapılanmaların, bir antik çağ mirasının, o dönem merkezî oluşumlarının içerisinde ne kadar da önemli olduğunu göstermek amaçlanmaktadır.

Assimilation in north-western England from the Norman conquest to the early thirteenth century: The Kirkby, Pennington and Copeland families
(The University of Leeds, 2010) Latimer, P.
By looking at three families, all of Anglo-Scandinavian descent in the male line and neighbours in the Furness peninsula, this article seeks to examine the particular ways in which they, and similar families in the region, adapted to the changes that occurred in the century and a half or so after the Norman Conquest. By the early thirteenth century, an assimilation had taken place whereby these families were beginning to play the role expected of knightly families in thirteenth-century England as a whole, taking their place within a single elite alongside families that traced their male descent back to Continental immigrants. The article examines this process of assimilation by looking at the families' participation in the local aristocratic network, their changing naming practices, their marriage and landholding relationships, and their mix of old and new tenures. It further looks at the introduction of castles, markets and boroughs, and the families' interaction with the growing penetration and sophistication of royal and ecclesiastical administration in the region. Finally, it examines the families' reaction to, and participation in, the transformation of the local Church, both secular and regular. © 2010 Maney Publishing.

Atatürk'ün el yazmalarının işlenmesi
(IEEE, 2010-04) Soysal, Talha; Adıgüzel Hande; Öktem, Alp; Haman, Alican; Can, Ethem Fatih; Duygulu, Pınar; Kalpaklı, Mehmet
Bu çalımada Atatürk'ün el yazmalarının etkin ve kolay eriimini salayabilecek kelime tabanlı bir arama sisteminin ilk aaması olarak sayısallatırılmı belgelerin ön ilemesi ve satır ve kelimelere bölütlenmesi konusunda çalımalar yapılmıtır. Tarihi el yazması belgeler çeitli zorluklar getirmekte, basılı belgelerde kullanılan yöntemlerin uygulanması baarılı sonuçlar üretememektedir. Bu nedenle daha gelimi çözümler üzerine younlaarak satır bölütlemede Hough dönüümü [1] tabanlı bir yöntem uyarlanmı, kelime bölütlemede ise yazıların eiklii göz önüne alınmıtır. Afet nan tarafından salanan belgelerin [4] 30 sayfası üzerinde yapılan çalımalarda elde edilen sonuçlar gelecek çalımalar açısından umut vericidir. In this paper, as a first step to an easy and convenient way to access the manuscripts of Atatürk with a word based search engine, the preprocessing of digitalized documents and their line and word segmentation is studied. The techniques that are applied on printed documents may not yield satisfactory results. Due to this fact, more developed techniques are decided to be applied consisting of a technique based on Hough transform [1] for line segmentation and a technique that is based on dealing with skewness of lines for word segmentation. The results, which are acquired through studies that are conducted on the documents provided by Afet İnan and consisting of 30 pages [2], prove to be highly accurate and promising for future researches. ©2010 IEEE.

Automatic categorization of ottoman literary texts by poet and time period
(Springer, London, 2012) Can, Ethem F.; Can, Fazlı; Duygulu, Pınar; Kalpaklı, Mehmet
Millions of manuscripts and printed texts are available in the Ottoman language. The automatic categorization of Ottoman texts would make these documents much more accessible in various applications ranging from historical investigations to literary analyses. In this work, we use transcribed version of Ottoman literary texts in the Latin alphabet and show that it is possible to develop effective Automatic Text Categorization techniques that can be applied to the Ottoman language. For this purpose, we use two fundamentally different machine learning methods: Naïve Bayes and Support Vector Machines, and employ four style markers: most frequent words, token lengths, two-word collocations, and type lengths. In the experiments, we use the collected works (divans) of ten different poets: two poets from five different hundred-year periods ranging from the 15th to 19th century. The experimental results show that it is possible to obtain highly accurate classifications in terms of poet and time period. By using statistical analysis we are able to recommend which style marker and machine learning method are to be used in future studies. © 2012 Springer-Verlag London Limited.

Automatic categorization of Ottoman poems
(De Gruyter Akademie Forschung, 2014) Can, E. F.; Can, F.; Duygulu, P.; Kalpakli, M.
Authorship attribution and identifying time period of literary works are fundamental problems in quantitative analysis of languages. We investigate two fundamentally different machine learning text categorization methods, Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Naïve Bayes (NB), and several style markers in the categorization of Ottoman poems according to their poets and time periods. We use the collected works (divans) of ten different Ottoman poets: two poets from each of the five different hundred-year periods ranging from the 15th to 19 th century. Our experimental evaluation and statistical assessments show that it is possible to obtain highly accurate and reliable classifications and to distinguish the methods and style markers in terms of their effectiveness.
