Mustafa Imamović’in Boşnakların Tarihi (Historija Bošnjaka) Adlı Kitabı ve Türkçe Tercümesine Dair Tespit ve Değerlendirmeler - Mustafa Imamović’s History of Bosniaks (Historija Bošnjaka) and the Evaluation of the Turkish Translation

The precious work Historija Bošnjaka, written by Prof. Dr. Mustafa Imamović in 1997, was translated into Turkish by Hüseyin Gül and Cenita Özgüner in 2018 under the name History of Bosniaks. Published by History Foundation. Mehmet Alkan, the Director of the History Foundation, wrote the introduction. Bosniaks and with Bosnia and Herzegovina until today as relevant enough to be used in studies of local resources is a serious deficiency in Turkey. Bosnians date of this deficiency and South Slavs with the relevant point contribution to academic literature in Turkey is a very important work. The introduction of such a basic work into Turkish will close a huge gap in this field. However, both the work, its translation and some expressions we encountered in the foreword, some concepts used in the translation and some information given by the author themselves attracted our attention and we wrote this work in order to prevent misunderstandings. In this context, we will make our determinations and evaluations in three items: introduction, translation of the work and about the work.
