Learning to Read tells the story of learning to read against the
background of the transition from Ottoman Empire to Turkish
Republic. It begins with the premise that the history of learning
to read and reading, remarkably understudied for this region given
its importance, can tell us much about the arrival of the modern
period in general and the Ottoman-to-Republican transformation in
particular. Investigating by turns the messages imparted to young
readers, the experience of mastering the basic mechanics of
reading, the arrival of new types of reading materials, the role of
illustration, the emergence of books and magazines as commodities
and the ways in which literacy changed people's lives, this book
provides a multifaceted approach to reading during a period of
rapid change. It demonstrates the reading's crucial importance to
the modern history of Turkey.
