A Gift to Hasan Ünal Nalbantoğlu

Hasan Ünal Nalbantoğlu is a teacher and an intellectual who has always been part of a 'conversation' with his students. How many generations have benefited from his mind-expanding talks and texts on a variety of interests, from humanities and social sciences to natural sciences and architecture!

We say conversations-and-texts because Nalbantoğlu's lectures, interviews and writings are all activities that are in dialogue with each other and give rise to each other. Just like the bond between social sciences and philosophy, there is an intellectual attitude here that is trained to never break this relationship. The long interview with him summarizes this attitude as well as Nalbantoğlu's intellectual adventure.
