Lehrbuch Des Osmanischen [German]

By Gisela Prochazka-Eisl

The study grammar offers a practical introduction to Ottoman original texts. Its aim is not only to understand texts of intermediate level of difficulty, but also to transcribe them with philological accuracy and translate them into German. The approach is based exclusively on original texts from various genres, which have been selected according to increasing levels of difficulty. Ranging from folk songs and marriage announcements from the early 20th century to newspaper articles and poems, magical texts from the 16th century and chronicles from the 15th century, the textbook provides a fascinating insight into the diversity of Ottoman written culture.
