More about the book
Focusing on the Zaza people of eastern Anatolia, the book explores their unique linguistic and ethnic identity, emphasizing their various names and dialects, such as Kirmanc and Dimili. The Zaza language retains ancient characteristics not found in other Kurdish dialects. Despite being genetically similar to Kurmanji speakers, their cultural and linguistic ties extend beyond Turkey. The book also discusses the impact of Turkish government policies and the Kurdish movement on the future of the Zaza community, highlighting the role of Zaza intellectuals in shaping their identity.
