Donatella demeyin artık anısı var diyoruz
“I’m surprised you’re so judgmental,” said Chaos. “I heard about
what you did with that princess. What was her name— Diana?”
“I have no idea who you’re talking about,” Jacks said smoothly,
though Evangeline noticed him tense just as he had when LaLa had
said that Jacks had been obsessed with Princess Donatella.
If we define a “primitive language” as something that resembles the rudimentary “me sleep here” type of English—a language with only a few hundred words and without the grammatical means of expressing any finer nuances—then it is a simple empirical fact that no natural language is primitive. Hundreds of languages of simple tribes have now been studied in depth, but not one of them, be it spoken by the most technologically and sartorially challenged people, is on the “me sleep here” level.

His philological and literary work earned him widespread fame at a young age. Yet he was always financially dependent on his parents—a benevolent but uncomprehending and rigidly conventional father and a withholding, judgmental mother (maternal imagery in Leopardi’s poetry is usually negative)
Admission of Turkey to the Public Law of Europe and the Rudiments of Formal Reform
In his inaugural speech to the Council of State in 1868, Abdul Aziz, the successor of Sultan Mecid who had enacted the two Reform edicts cited above, vowed to protect and defend the members of all nationalities as "children of the same fatherland." Yet, in spite of all these professions and asssurances, intermittently reasserted up to the 1876 Constitution and beyond, "No genuine equality was ever attained." [10] The reason was evident. The reforms were a repudiation of fundamental socio-religous traditions deeply enmeshed in the Turkish psyche, and institutionalized throughout the Empire. When the 1856 edict was proclaimed:
" Many Moslems began to grumble: 'Today we lost our sacred national rights which our ancestors gained with their blood. While the Islamic nation used to be the ruling nation, it is now bereft of his sacred right. This is a day of tears and mourning for the Moslem brethren.' [11] "
Within few years (1859), these reations culminated in what is known as the Kuleli revolt in the capital. Army officers joined hands with Muslim clergymen and teachers in an attempt to overthrow the regime in protest against what they considered to be sumbisliveness to foreign powers, and the illegimitimacy of the act of granting equal rights to the Christians.

For ‘mafia’ was widely taken to refer not to an organization, but to a mixture of violent passion and ‘Arabic’ pride that supposedly dictated Sicilian behaviour. ‘Mafia’, as viewed by many, was a primitive notion of honour, a rudimentary code of chivalry obeyed by the backward people of the Sicilian countryside.

There are two kinds of vision:
the seeing of things, which belongs
to the science of optics, versus
the seeing beyond things, which
results from deprivation. Man mocking the dark, rejecting worlds you do not know: though the dark
is full of obstacles, it is possible to have
intense awareness when the field is narrow
and the signals few. Night has bred in us
thought more focused than yours, if rudimentary:
man the ego, man imprisoned in the eye,
there is a path you cannot see, beyond the eye’s reach, what the philosophers have called
the via negativa: to make a place for light
the mystic shuts his eyes—illumination
of the kind he seeks destroys
creatures who depend on things.
Admission of Turkey to the Public Law of Europe and the Rudiments of Formal Reform
The decision of the Christion Powers of Europe to embrace Turkey was an anomaly as European public law, the bastion of European legalism, was instrinsically on a collision course with the Ottoman theocratic system and its religious dogmas. The Concert of Europe already in 1648 in Westphalia had laid the foundation of the doctrine of the separation of church and state and thus, in a rudimentary form, had already decided to subordinate religious dogmas to legal principle, the rule of law; it thus consecrated secularism as the cornerstone of the system of the family of nations. But the Ottoman Empire, for most of its history, was and remained a theocracy which, by definition and fact, cannot be secularized; laws that are predicated upon permanently fixed and intractable religious precepts cannot be modified, much less reformed.

“İbtidai sistemlərdə, mümkündür ki, din avam kütlələri çətinliklərə mübarizədə istiqamətləndirmək və ölkə daxilində asayişi qorumaq üçün faydalı idi. Ancaq hazırda faydasız rudiment kimi kəsilib atılmalıdır. Onun yerini elm, texnika, fəlsəfə və vicdan doldura bilir”

1) The Reformed Rake or Siren:
People of this type were once happy-go lucky seducers who had their way with the opposite sex. But the day came when they were forced to give this up—someone corraled them into a relationship, they were encountering too much social hostility, they were getting older and
