This essay delves into the phenomenon of the "unveiling of Sufis" and traces Yaman Dede's journey to becoming a dervish within the Mavlavī Order in the Republic of Turkey. The Mavlavī Order, a longstanding Islamic Sufi tradition dedicated to preserving the spiritual teachings of Mevlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Rūmī and his successors for over seven centuries, faced challenges under Turkey's secularization policies in 1925. This essay explores the extent to which the Mavlavī Order could practice its religious rituals within the secular framework of the Turkish Republic. Additionally, it examines the compelling appeal of the Mavlavī Order to seekers, worshippers, and intellectuals, a call that resonated deeply with Yaman Dede, a Christian Orthodox individual from Anatolia. Through biographical insights into Yaman Dede's identity quest amidst the backdrop of his conversion story, the essay sheds light on his inner turmoil caused by the clash of two faiths, ultimately leading to personal reconciliation as he embraced the path of a Mavlavī dervish. The latter part of the essay delves into the dynamics of the master-disciple relationship, with a focus on the interaction between Remzi Dede and Yaman Dede as a case study. Furthermore, it explores the enduring intellectual legacy of Yaman Dede and its impact on shaping the contemporary Sufi tradition in Turkey.
Der vorliegende Band gibt einer Generation das Wort, die mit der Praxis der europäischen Einigung der letzten beiden Jahrzehnte aufgewachsen ist, und geht damit über die geläufigen Europadiskurse weit hinaus. Er ist aus einem besonderen Ereignis hervorgegangen: Das deutsche und das italienische Staatsoberhaupt haben im Juli 2011 mit 29 jungen Bürgerinnen und Bürgern aus beiden Ländern in der Villa Vigoni am Comer See ein lebendiges und unkonventionelles Gespräch über die Zukunft Europas geführt. Der Band bietet den Wortlaut dieser spannenden Diskussion, im Anschluß daran ausgearbeitete Programmtexte der jungen Gesprächsteilnehmer sowie Impulsbeiträge zu europäischen Problemhorizonten zum Zeitpunkt des Gesprächs.
