Abstract:
Imagine a festival taking place before about five thousand people in a park in Adana, Turkey, in June 1992. In the middle of the park is a stage made of concrete. A touring Kurdish theatre company comprising four men, Hüseyin Kaytan, Kazım Öz, Nihat Öz, and Kemal Orgun, is performing a short play called Du Şivan (Two Shepherds). They enact a village raid and choose the villagers from among the audience. Kemal Orgun plays the commander of the task force raiding the village. The other three carry out the operation, rounding up the villagers. Orgun struts among the villagers, harassing them. All

In this essay, we explore what is at stake for Kurdish theatre artists who develop their theatre praxis in a permanent state of emergency imposed by the Turkish government, and why it matters to&nbsp;<em>act</em>, both in the general sense and in the theatrical one, in a language that is neither the accepted one of the nation nor of the majority culture. This essay discusses interviews with five prominent Kurdish theatre artists, some based in Turkey and others currently in exile in Europe.

Abstract:
Scholars generally argue that during the Second World War the Middle East, and the Kurdish areas in particular, was a peripheral theatre of an otherwise global war. While this is largely true, it seems necessary to introduce some nuances into this analysis. A view from the borderlands, combined with a socio-historical approach to how the war was experienced on a daily basis behind the front line, reveals that military tensions, large-scale arms smuggling, inflation, food shortages and economic migration were common features in the Kurdish borderlands between 1941 and 1945.

Abstract On March 5 of 1991, Kurdish people in the North part of Iraq launched an uprising which resulted in reoccupying various lands from the hands of socialist groups and Baath Regime. These lands were taken over by the demonstrators and revolutionists. This revolution resulted in the establishment of an autonomous Kurdish government. Additionally, Soran province as a part of those reoccupied lands, fell under the influence of that revolutionary atmosphere. As various social activists and artists began seizing the opportunity and started making groups in order to make artistic activities. M

This paper attempts to uncover aspects of artistic performances where the lines between real life and artistic representations are quite blurred. To achieve this purpose, we will investigate the interdependencies of the artistic power of Lalish theatre, a performance troupe emerging from an oppressed Kurdish context, coupled with the human and socio-political dimensions of Lalish performances. By adopting a qualitative descriptive analysis of key features of the performances, the research delves into the methods employed in Lalish performances to challenge and destabilize conventional dramatic

Abstract:
Novel is one of the narrative literary genres that are most open to other literary and artistic ones. So, we see that there is a strong interaction between the novel and the play, because they are two narrative literary genres that are united by common elements such as (dialogue, event, movement, and conflict). Nevertheless, the novel has maintained its limits. It did not, with all its characteristics, turn into a theatrical text intended for performance. That is, it kept for itself distinct characteristics that express its identity, which separates it from the full dramatic text. Henry James

Muheyaddin Zanagana is a Kurdish author, playwright and novelist, he was born in Kirkuk. He authored several works in different literary domain such as theater, story writing and novels. One of his most important and widespread work was the novel “Asus”, which had in between the lines a Kurdish features, depicting or explaining the various aspect of Kurdish society characteristics. I find that shedding lights on this novel is highly noteworthy, thus this paper is an attempt to show and review these Kurdish aspects and manifestations.

This dissertation explores the role played by Kurdish theatre in the Kurdish national struggle in Iraq especially between 1975 and 1991. First, it traces the development of Kurdish theatre, within the socio-political context in Iraqi Kurdistan, from its emergence in the 1920s to the defeat of the Kurdish nationalist movement and the fall of the Kurdistan region under the direct Baath rule in 1975. It will then explore the Kurdish resistance theatre during the Baath rule and will analyse the representation of Kurdish nationalist identity in four dramas produced during the Baath rule between 197

This book focuses on the cultural and intellectual activities of Kurdish migrant women through artistic and aesthetic forms of production in Belgium, France, Germany, Sweden and the UK. Using in-depth interviews with over 40 Kurdish women artists, Ozlem Galip examines how artistic, literary and cultural productions, incorporating the fields of film, theatre and music, are articulated within the structures of nation states, leading to the interrogation of the impact of western and local knowledge, patriarchy, the nation-state and globalisation.
