PREPARED BY PROF. ERDOĞAN BOZ

The Institute presents the voice of the great Turkish poet Yunus Emre that has passed the ages and his contribution of Turkish to become the Anatolian language with two beautiful works. Prepared by Prof. Erdoğan Boz, the work of "Yunus Emre Selection" (Yunus Emre Seçkisi) and "Risaletü'n-Nushiyye", depicts Yunus, who preserves his existence in the hearts of Turkish people in his most alive state, and reveals his mystical teaching in an aesthetic way.

The work called "Yunus Emre Selection" contains selections from the Risaletü'n-Nushiyye and the Divan. In the first part of the work, 28 poems from Risaletü'n-Nushiyye, and in the next part, 44 poems from the Divan are included.

The importance of patience, humility and honesty is emphasized in the work titled "Risaletü'n-Nushiyye", which concerns not only linguists, people of letters, and theologians, but also all layers of society. The work consists of original text, translation text and texts rendered into the modern Turkish.

IT WILL BE PUBLISHED IN OTHER LANGUAGES

The Institute aims to present Yunus Emre's Divan to the interested societies in the near future. It aims to translate 3 valuable works into various languages such as English, Chinese, Russian, Arabic, French, Spanish and German.
