Secretariat communication record

Congratulations to our Vice-President! Prof. Danuta Chmielowska and Kamal Abdulla have published a new book in Polish: „Porozmawiajmy o Azerbejdżanie. Historia, język i kultura” (*Let's talk about Azerbaijan: history, language and culture*), from Wydawnictwo Adam Marszałek.

The book looks closely at the history of Azerbaijan, the particular features of the Azerbaijani language and the country's distinctive culture, and at the long history of ties between Poles and Azerbaijanis. For Polish readers it is a way into a country of the Turkic world that is close to Türkiye in language and tradition.

The book was also on the table at the recent meeting with students at the University of Warsaw's Centre for Europe.

The book is the authors' work and their publisher's: TURKPOL did not take part in the book, and we are simply proud to share our Vice-President's news.

We recommend it especially to the members of our Academic Club: students, young researchers and graduates interested in the languages, history and cultures of the Turkic world.

Where to get it: from the publisher's bookshop, sklep.marszalek.com.pl.
