Du Birayên Bedirxanî: Celadet û Kamiran Bedirxan (1913-1923)

This book introduces you to the world of the Bedirxan family —one of the defining voices of Kurdish modernism. It focuses on the social and political work of Emîn Alî Bedirxan , and especially his sons Celadet and Kamiran , during the last ten years of the Ottoman Empire (1913–1923).

Editor Seîd Veroj has compiled 37 contemporary articles by the brothers from newspapers and magazines of those years and made them available to you – many of them also translated into modern Turkish . This allows you to directly follow the debates of that time: on language and identity, the press and the public, politics, and the future of Kurdistan.

If you are interested in Kurdish history , intellectual history and the press culture of the late Ottoman period , this volume offers you a rare collection of primary sources – clearly structured, easy to read and close to the original voices.
