Böcker av Yucel Guclu

This book gives an accurate and reasonably complete narrative account of the Armenian events of 1909 and their aftermath and provides an interpretive framework that makes some sense out of this episode in Ottoman history.

This book demonstrates the vital importance of Ottoman and other relevant archives in Turkey for the study of the Armenian question. By turning a modern eye on historical events, Guclu gives necessary attention to discovering the precise chronology, meaning, and development of the continuing negotiations between Turkey and Armenia.

Because the tragedy of the Armenians is not deemed, by consensus, a genocide, many have long sought to connect it to the single event that is most clearly associated with the word genocide-the Holocaust. This book attempts to make this comparison in several distinct ways.
