Comments on: Dede Korkut and the Angel of Death http://storynory.com/2009/03/02/dede-korkut-and-the-angel-of-death/ Audio Stories Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:15:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: HOD http://storynory.com/2009/03/02/dede-korkut-and-the-angel-of-death/#comment-41434 HOD Fri, 27 Aug 2010 07:01:17 +0000 http://storynory.com/?p=1466#comment-41434 If you begin the sentence at the begining like this "There was once a great warrior called Dede Korkut.", you do a big fault. Because Dede Korkut (or Dedem Korkut in some resources) is not a warrior. He is a sage and wise man. He is an old man. Warrior one is Deli Dumrul in Turkish story. Please correct this big fault. Thank you very much from now on. If you begin the sentence at the begining like this “There was once a great warrior called Dede Korkut.”, you do a big fault.

I think, you are right Bertie, nobody can or should oblige you to prepare *another* more authentic piece from Dede Korkut. As opposed to what you feel, however, I don’t feel that there is an issue of harassment, even a problem of diplomacy here. It is natural that people say the same things because the problem is the same. And the problem is not that there is no authentic story from Dede Korkut on this blog, and that you are not enthusiastic about preparing one. The problem is what you present to be is not what it is. And all people ask from you is, not to keep this misleading piece on your blog. That simple. It is a problem of credibility and integrity. And since it is still preserved on this website as it is, after the warnings of people in good faith, now the problem is ethical, and a question of intention. That is why there is no need for any diplomatic negotiations. Why would anyone want to negotiate about a question of integrity? Obviously, if there is no integrity and good will, not even the best diplomacy can make any difference. That is why people, who comment, do comment, because they still believe that there is an integrity and good will that they can appeal to. It is sad that you rather feel harassment. But feelings may be misleading. For instance, I feel that there cannot be such a person called Adem who is supposed to have sent this story, because a teacher in a small village in Turkey would not usually know English, and even if he did, the students of a primary school in a small village in Turkey would not surely know English, and hence could not be storynory listeners as it is claimed above. Well… I also have another feeling that someone who is educated in classics at Oxford, and worked as a BBC journalist, cannot possibly be that ignorant and careless about preparing stories. You see, feelings may tell many things, some may have truth in them, some may not. But you need not try to feel the intentions of your commentators, but rather ask, whether or not your commentator says something right. But if you still feel that even this is harassment, which is not meant to be one, then it is just sad that you take it that way. Bu there is no need for sadness or worry. The solution with a sign of integrity is very simple: just take this story out of your archives, which does not need space, time or money. Hi again, this is Anon.

I have said that we will do a more authentic piece when we are able. That's the end of it. By keeping on at me, you are not increasing my enthusiasm doing justice to Dede Korkut's stories. A little diplomacy might get you a lot further and a lot faster. Just give us some space. Thank you. Dear Selcuk

So I continue here.... Pls do not claim that this is a traditional story from Turkey, there is no such story in Turkey. I wish you remove it from the site completely. Dede Korkut is a folcloric value in Turkey, a story teller whose stories are told in " Dede Korkut Stories" for ages...He was never a warrior. I do not understand how can you publish such a wrong text, without first checking its authenticity? Would you publish a story in which Cinderella is shown as illwilled stepsisters, or Rapunzel with a short hair waiting for the prince in cottage instead of tower? How about publishing story from Grimm brothers, changing the roles of the characters as you wish... Would you still claim that it is Grimm story, or a Rapunzel, or Cinderella? Would you add worthless comments, as you did above, claiming that "its authenticity as a genuine piece of ..... folklore is rather in doubt" Dede Korkut stories are no more different than Grimm's tales and other classic tales of world folcloric culture. What you publish is not a Dede Korkut Story. It is something else... Pls change the name of the story and the name of the characters, also do not say that it is a traditional Turkish story...

But this is precisely what worries me. And I’m sorry if my previous tone of writing prevented you to understand what I wanted to convey and to take the necessary steps accordingly. I did not doubt the good faith of the teachers who prepare this web-page, rather I was disappointed about the control mechanism of such a serious work. I would kindly ask you to take this story out of your archives either permanently or temporarily until you revise it. Some names are not just names; they are special and refer to unique persons. Let me try to explain why this is such a significant issue with an analogous imaginary example: Suppose that the character of this story was not named “Dede Korkut” but rather “Socrates” or “Gandi” “Martin Luther King” or “Pope Benedict”. And suppose that when you were a kid your mother told this story to you beginning with: “Socrates/Gandi /Martin Luther King/Pope Benedict, and his men swept across the earth conquering lands far and wide, and as his power and wealth grew, so did his pride….” And this is one of the stories you loved most and she would tell it to you every now and then. Then you grow up and get to know that Socrates/Gandi /Martin Luther King/Pope Benedict is rather considered to be a wise person in Greek/Indian/African-American/Catholic culture, and suppose this culture is alien to you. What would you think? Would you believe your mother or the words of an alien culture? In this sense, this story as it is, unfortunately plants a seed of prejudice in the minds of innocent children who will be future’s adults. I’m sure that you did not intend this, but given this foreseeable result, if you still decide to keep it as it is, then this will just mean that you do it intentionally. This reminds me what a Catholic philosopher, G.E.M. Anscombe, says at the end of her book, Intention: “St Peter could do what he intended not to do, without changing his mind, and yet do it intentionally”.

We never said that this was a tale by Dede Korkut, We named a character Dede Korkut, which is a different thing. I don't see that we have distorted his story because we never presented this as one of his stories. it was a story sent to us in good faith by teacher in Turkey, and a lot of people like it. I can't just edit the whole peace in an instance, because it is an audio narration, and it takes a lot of time and planning to publish a story on this site, and actually money too. I can research and schedule a genuine story by Dede Korkut, if it can be made suitable for children, but that will take time, as everything does on this free site.

This is not a matter of nationalism. Would you just put anything you hear from anyone in the world on your web page? How can we trust that the other stories are not just as fake as this one? And why would you bother about giving a cultural background if 'good fakes' are good enough. Just write them as 'here is another fancy we came up with' If you CAN EDIT the introduction, why would you not edit the WHOLE piece? Besides, the way you put it: "its authenticity as a genuine piece of Turkish folklore is rather in doubt" What do you mean? Is the authenticity of Dede Korkut's tales are in doubt? Why would you not say as you say in the comment - "It is embarrassing" and we have distorted the authentic story and came up with a good fake. Good for whom?

Point taken. I'll edit the intro to make it clear that this isn't an "authentic" story. This story was actually sent to us by a Turkish teacher - I just point this out to show that it can seem authentic enough even to somebody from Turkey, so if it's a fake, it's a good fake !

It is our duty to correct significant ones. The mistake about the name is NOT a trivial or a small one. Besides, this is not an accurate narration of the original story. If you are sincerely interested in presenting stories from other cultures the first thing you ought to do is to be serious about how to do it.

Dede Korkut is not the character of this tale, he is the old storyteller, (Dede means 'Grandfather' in Turkish)this is one of his stories. The collection of these stories is called the Book of Dede Korkut. The name of the hero is 'Deli Dumrul' where Dumrul is a private name and 'Deli' as a nickname means 'Mad, or Crazy.' And Deli Dumrul is does not try to conquer the world. He guards a bridge and does not let anyone pass without paying him. And he is mad because the river has already dried out and the bridge seems to have lost its function. Also, in the end of the story, the angel of death takes the life of the old parents who denied to offer their lives. Please be more sensitive to the original context of the stories you want to share.
