A comprehensive study aimed at enhancing the understanding of “Dîvânü Lugâti’t-Türk”, one of the most significant works of the Turkish language, has been prepared with contributions from researchers across various disciplines.


Another valuable work has been added to the literature by YTB Publications. The book "Kâşgarlı Mahmud and Dîvânü Lugâti’t-Türk", which examines Kâşgarlı Mahmud-who lived in the 11th century and is renowned for his research on the Turkish language- and his most well-known work from an academic perspective, seeks to provide a deeper understanding of Turkish culture, history, and language. 

It was Introduced at Millet Manuscript Library

Edited by Prof. Dr. Bilal Kemikli and Prof. Dr. Mehdin Çiftçi, "Kâşgarlı Mahmud and Dîvânü Lugâti’t-Türk" was introduced at the Millet Manuscript Library in the Fatih district of Istanbul.
