Course Flow Plan

Week	Subject	Related Preparation
1)	Definition of social history; emphasizing its concern with ordinary people rather than elites, with everyday things rather than sensational events. Mention of George Macaulay Trevelyan (1876–1962) plus the Annales School founded in 1929 by Marc Bloch (1886–1944) & Lucien Febvre (1878–1956) plus Turkish names like Ömer Lütfi Barkan, Halil İnalcık as well as Wallestein-associated scholars (Çağlar Keyder, Huricihan İslâmoğlu, Reşat Kasaba).
2)	Elaboration of the Related Topics, one by one; starting with the famous Sign Language of Ottomans; its origins, its function and uniqueness.
3)	Black-sea whistle-lingo, an ingenious discovery of people living in hilly, rugged terrains and in dispersed settlements. UNESCO’s registry of the practice as worthwhile for protection.
4)	Janissaries as an elite body of troops, the herd’s ultimate degeneration and abolishment. Replacement with other systems, which was not an easy task. Historical war-waging capability of Turks with its recent appreciation by the western world in Korea.
5)	Attempts of leading Historians like Şükrü Hanioğlu to reconciliate the Republic with its past glory represented by the Ottoman legacy. Early reform movements directly instigated by progressive sultans. Eventual republican revolutions in various fields of daily life; attire being one of the most visible measures. Language and alphabet reforms are discussed from a two-sided approach.
6)	Women in Turkish History. Well-to-do Ottoman women’s freedom to act as entrepreneurs. Civil rights bestowed by the republic. Exceptional but exemplary female achievements like orthopedist medical doctors or football referees
7)	The surname Law replacing formerly-common nicknames, which were attributed even to Ottoman viziers, at the time.
8)	The stages of the education system on the way to full modernization. Vivid extracts from the memoires of certain scholars. Influence of French as the preferred foreign language in the curriculums almost until recent times, before the ultimate “victory” of English based on the prevailing conjecture. How things were settled before the introduction of multiple-choice technique.
9)	Evolution of the family from large feudal structures to the modern core family of the cities. Some characters who left their traces: Tarzan of Manisa, Tall-Ömer, Magician Zati Sungur. Chopping off six zeroes from the Turkish lira, transitory “New Turkish Lira” and eventual settling down of the Turkish Lira.
10)	The golden-age of artisanat: Hand-made (tailored) dresses and even shoes, which defied mass production for decades! Even the sultans were initiated into crafts from princedom days onward, one of the later ones becoming a splendid carpenter.
11)	Development of transportation. An extract from an American novel about the ferry commuting between the Asian and European sides of Istanbul in 1968, five years before the construction of the first suspension bridge over the Bosporus.
12)	Traditional shadow-play (Schattenspiel / théâtre d'ombres) and traditional Turkish theater. Narration of related legends. Open summer-movie-theaters until 1980s all over the country. The special place that the Turkish-bath deserves as a social focal point, besides being an issue of hygiene.
13)	Circus arts among the Ottomans from the marvellous pen of late researcher Metin And. Specially dwelling upon the national-sport: Oil-wrestling. International fame gained by late-stage-Ottoman wrestlers abroad, under foreign managers-and-promoters.
14)	Childbirth practices, circumcision festivities, death rituals. Various scenes of nostalgia as a visual pleasure (Augenvergnügen / plaisir des yeux):
