title = {Introducing Transcription Standards for Armeno-Turkish Literary Studies},
year = {2022},
note = {Turkish literature in Armenian script comprises a large corpus of
manuscripts dating from the 14th century together with printed
material published between the 18th and 20th centuries. Books were
printed in a wide geographical area and their contents were produced
by mono- and bilingual Turkish- (and Armenian)-speaking Ottoman
Armenians. Therefore, Armeno-Turkish text production represents the
textual output enabled through Armenian and Turkish cross-cultural
interactions, including various genres and different types of text.
Although the scope of Armeno-Turkish text production is extensive,
scholarly engagement with Armeno-Turkish texts at universities has
only been markedly evident since the 2000s. The most significant
reason for this late and limited engagement may lie in the obstacle of
the hybrid nature of the script and the language, whereby
Armeno-Turkish literature has a place neither in Turkish nor in
Armenian literary studies. The aims of this article are therefore (1)
to give a short overview of hitherto scholarly work with
Armeno-Turkish text corpora and (2) to propose a standard for the
transcription of Turkish texts in Armenian script. In a longue durée
perspective, we aim to conduct inclusive literary studies and examine
Armeno-Turkish literature within the greater framework of (Ottoman)
Turkish literature.},
