Harika notlar. Paylaştığınız için çok teşekkürler... :icon_wave:

çok teşekkürler paylaşımınız için. Eminim çok faydasını göreceğiz bu notların :)

Some problems in the notes provided above:

The Irish are supposed to be great talker [sic]. The Scots have a reputation for being careful with money. The Welsh are well-known for their singing ability. ... English people like gardening. ... Welsh [sic] are emotional, cheerful people. ... They are friendly but suspicious of foreigners ... The Scots ... are friendly. ... They are very keen on kilt [sic] and bagpipes.

How is it that these sorts of stereotypes are being taught in university-level courses?

Capital city of Ireland is Belfast.

It's surprising that, after making such careful distinctions between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, such a blatant mistake was made. Belfast is the capital city of Northern Ireland; Dublin is the capital city of the Republic of Ireland; Ireland—which is an island and not, at present, a political entity—has no capital.

I share your bafflement!
They are very hackneyed ideas indeed!? The lecturer feels himself as if he is in a primary school atmosphere, and seems he gives a lesson on adjectives "let's know the people from..", and talks about the people at issue in an oriental-occidental way of thinking. Just strange!!

More than strange; rather insulting, really.

Teşekkürler, güzel paylaşım. :icon_tup:

teşekkürler hocam

l remember how these notes were written.
The student asked the Teacher and made him to do the critics as in the notes and, he warned us these parts are ( like Saposcat found) not academically things.....

This Prof. Kamil AYDIN is the person who is one of the poineer of the comperative literature in Turkey and in the World. One of his book was supported by B.Con.

PS:l think after the age of 40 some of us are not able to remember the past;) (This is not for you Saposcat)
