Читать книгу Too Far for Comfort - Rana Tekcan - Страница 5

I owe a debt of gratitude to Prof. Manuel Schonhorn of Southern Illinois University, Carbondale who introduced me to biographical studies; to Prof. Cevza Sevgen, my doctoral supervisor at Boğaziçi University, who guided me through this work; to the faculty members at Istanbul Bilgi University Comparative Literature Department who daily create the most congenial work environment any academic can wish for; to the staff at Istanbul Bilgi University Library who provided prompt and informed research support; and finally, to Koray Melikoğlu, my editor, who gave thoughtful and meticulous editorial assistance.

Parts of this book were used in a presentation, subsequently published, for the “Life Writing” Symposium held at Haliç University, Istanbul, 19-21 April 2006 (see bibliography).
