The new issue of "History Lessons with Tamara Eidelman" is dedicated to Mustafa Kemal, the great Ataturk, a reformer, the creator of the Turkish Republic. This is a man who evokes completely opposite assessments - for some he is the greatest politician, the "father of the Turks", the creator of the Turkish nation, for someone - a bloody dictator, for someone - a man who broke centuries-old traditions and disrupted the normal development of the country. What did Mustafa Kemal want? How did he come to power and what did he achieve? BOOKS: * Andrew Mango. Ataturk: The Biography of the Founder of Modern Turkey. * Giles Milton. Paradise lost. Smyrna 1922. The Destruction of Islam's City of Tolerance. * Orhan Pamuk. Plague Nights.
