YUNUS EMRE:
CONTEMPORARY OF RUMI

A GREAT TURKISH FOLK POET OF LOVE

A Poetry Presentation by Prof. Talat HALMAN,
First Minister of Culture of the Republic of Turkey.

Introduction by Prof. Etem EROL

"For those who truly love God and his ways
All the people of the world are brothers.

We regard no one's religion as contrary to ours,
True love is born when all faiths are united as a whole."

True faith is in the head, not in the headgear.”


Date: Friday, April 11, 2008
Time: 7:00pm
Venue: Columbia University, Schermerhorn Building, Room# 614
116th Street & Broadway Avenue (or Amsterdam Avenue)
(after the gate, walk about thirty yards, go up the stairs, go around Low Memorial Library, after Avery Building.)

Prof. Talat Halman will present sufi Yunus Emre’s (1241-1321) poetry.  Professor is famous for his excellent translations of the Turkish sufi poet. Previously, he taught at NYU. Now, he teaches at Bilkent University, Ankara. He is a former Minister of Culture of Turkey.

Yunus Emre, unlike Mevlana - Rumi who wrote in Persian, the literary language of the era, Yunus expressed himself in his native tongue, Turkish. His language is direct and easy-to-understand, while his style is rich in Sufi metaphors.
