Abstract
The trickster figure is a common cultural feature globally. A not-so-pious Muslim cleric, with foolish deeds and clever sayings, Nasreddin (Nasreddin Hoca in Turkish, Molla Nasreddin in Farsi, and Joha in Arabic) has been the most popular folk character and trickster figure in the Middle East for centuries. Molla Nasreddin: The Making of a Modern Trickster (1906-1911) investigates how a cartoon journal in South Caucasus, Molla Nasreddin, reproduced the trickster figure as a medium of social criticism, and how it reimagined “both the name and the persona of the trickster for modern political satire” to “disseminate a progressive discourse on power, religion, class, and gender”.
骗子形象是全球共同的文化特征。Nasreddin(土耳其语为Nasreddin Hoca，波斯语为Molla Nasreddin，阿拉伯语为Joha)是一个不那么虔诚的穆斯林神职人员，他的行为愚蠢，言语聪明，几个世纪以来一直是中东地区最受欢迎的民间人物和骗子。Molla Nasreddin: The Making of a Modern Trickster(1906-1911))调查了南高加索的一家漫画杂志Molla Nasreddin如何将骗子形象作为社会批评的媒介，以及它如何重新想象“现代政治讽刺中骗子的名字和角色”，以“传播关于权力、宗教、阶级和性别的进步话语”。
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Ottoman Studies has been published continuously since 1980 and has carried the pluralist heritage of the Ottomans to contemporary academe by bringing together Ottomanists from different countries as well as from different disciplines and schools of thought. As the founder of the journal, the late Nejat Göyünç (1925-2001), stated in the preface he wrote for the first volume of the journal, the aim of the journal “is to become a means for the increasingly growing number of students of Ottoman Studies to get together in this journal, to encourage young members of the scholarly profession by publishing their interesting research …, to help them to become known, and to facilitate the presentation of their research to the scholarly world.”
