Dear Professor Dr. Ýsen,

The famous scholarly Turcological joumal Türklüok Bilgisi Ara§tlrmalarý'' / Journal ofTurkish Studies [TÜBA / JTS] was established some 30 ago by Professors Fahir Ýz and§inasi Tekin. Since that time it has been continuously publishing scholarly articleswritten in English and Turkish by many ofthe major experts in Turkish Iiteratures, aswell as by promising young scholarso

The fact that Ýt Ýs publÝshed from Harvard UnÝversÝty , one of the best unÝversÝtÝes Ýn theworld and certaÝnly the most well-known Ýn AmerÝca, has helped to gÝve Ýt anÝntematÝonal readership and reputatÝon, but Ýt Ýs maÝnly for the solÝd value of Ýts contentsthat it has gained and enhanced its respect in the field ofTurkish stu.?ies. It is for thisreason that 1 have myself chosen to publish eight of my articles in TUBA since Ýtsinception Ýn ý 977 ...

,. .1. ''.t..., , 1

TUBA has been edited by a remarkable husband-and-wife team ofTurcological scholars,Dr ÞinasÝ Tekin and Dr Gönül Tekin, who have always mana.l?ed to obtain funds tosupport its publication. Mter the untimely and tragic death ofDr. Þinasi Tekin in 2004,the solid academic future ofTÜBA will certainly be assured by Gönül HanÝinwith theassistance of two distinguished former students of Þinasi Bey ---Prof.:Dr .Cemal KafadarofHarvard University and Prof. Dr. Selim Kuru ofthe University ofWashington. But itcannot have an academic future withoutfinancial support !

1 have been Ýnformed that you wQuld IÝke to receÝve the v~~ws of other scholars as to thevalue of thÝs academÝc perÝodÝcal. It Ýs my opÝriÝon that TUBA/jTS Ýs perhaps the mostÝmportant and dynamÝc Turcologicaljournal beÝng pubIÝshed today. ItÝsvÝtal that Ýtshould contÝnue to be a Ieader Ýn Ýts field.

What 1 have wrÝtten about TÜBA appIÝes equally to the remarkable monograph serÝesSources of Oriental Languages and literatures: T urkish Sources [SOLL] , estabIÝshed by ÞinasiTekinÝn 1977 .Up to now nearly 70 volumes have been pubIÝshed, many ofthem ''crÝtÝcaledÝtions'' ofrare Turkish texts prevÝously unpublÝshed. §OLL Ýs certainl~ amQng thebe~

In summary, 1 belÝeve that TÜBA/JTS and SOLL deserve the greatest support, bothmoral and financÝal, so that they may contÝnue to successfully serve the field ofTurkÝshIiterature studÝes and brÝng it honor.

With great respect,

Y ours sincerely ,
