Mövzu: The heart of Azerbaijan Shusha .
The heart of Azerbaijan Shusha .
The city has suffered significant destruction and depopulation during the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. After the capture of Shusha in 1992 by Armenian
forces during First Nagorno-Karabakh War, the city's Azerbaijani population
fled, and most of the city was destroyed.
Between May 1992 and November 2020, Shusha was under the de facto control
of the breakaway Republic of Artsakh and administered as the centre of its
Shushi Province. On 8 November 2020, Azerbaijani forces retook the city
during the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War following a three-day long battle.]
The Armenian population of the city fled, and multiple reports emerged that the
Armenian cultural heritage of the city was being destroyed. The Azerbaijani
government opened the city to tourists from Azerbaijan in 2022 and plans to
start resettling the city in 2023.
Following the capture of Shusha by the Armenian forces in 1992, the
Azerbaijani population of the town, consisting of 15,000 people, was killed and
expulsed.Before the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War, the population consisted of
over 4,000 Armenians,mainly refugees from Baku and other parts of Karabakh
and Azerbaijan. As a result of the first war, no Azerbaijanis live in Shusha
today, although Azerbaijani authorities plan to repopulate it with Azerbaijani
displaced persons who fled Shusha during the first war.] Shusha's Armenian
population fled shortly before the city was recaptured by Azerbaijani forces
during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War.
Shusha contains both Armenian and Azerbaijani cultural monuments, while the
surrounding territories also include many ancient Armenian villages.Shusha is
often considered the cradle of Azerbaijan's music and poetry and one of the
leading centres of the Azerbaijani culture ,having been declared the cultural
capital of
Azerbaijan in January 2021.The city is particularly renowned for its traditional
Azerbaijani genre of vocal and instrumental arts called mugham. For the
Azerbaijanis, Shusha is the "conservatoire of the Caucasus". Khurshidbanu
Natavan,
Azerbaijan's most famous woman poet, composer Uzeyir Hajibeyov, opera
singer
Bulbul and one of Azerbaijan's first twentieth-century novelists, Yusif Vezir
Chemenzeminli, were born here. Molla Panah Vagif, a prominent Azerbaijani
poet and vizier of the Karabakh khanate, lived and died in Shusha. Vagif Poetry
Days were held in Shusha annually since 1982. The tradition was resumed in
2021
Shusha serves an important role in the history of Armenian music, being the
hometown and headquarters of Armenian composer Grikor Suni and his
chorus.Suni was an instrumental figure in establishing the national identity of
Armenian music and considered one of the many founders of modern Armenian
music.
Shusha is also well known for sileh rugs, floor coverings from the South
Caucasus.
Those from the Caucasus may have been woven in the vicinity of Shusha. A
similar Eastern Anatolian type usually shows a different range of colours.

The Caspian Sea:The Caspian Sea, or the world’s largest lake, makes one of
the best places to visit in Azerbaijan. The coastline stretches more than 500
kilometres (310 miles) from the border with Iran to the south and Dagestan in
the north. You can find beautiful resorts in Sumgait in the northern part of the
Absheron Peninsula. Lankaran, four hours south of Baku towards the Iranian
border, has a few resorts too.
Shirvan National Park:The semi-desert national park located just over 100
kilometres (62 miles) southwest of Baku combines wildlife, dunes and a short
stretch coastline. Visitors enjoy landscapes and diversity of fauna with its large
population of gazelles, jungle cats and turtles. More than 200 species of bird
also live inside Shirvan National Park, including 32 rare ones. Bungalows and
camping sites are available for overnight stays.
Agh Gol National Park:Lake Aggol, the second largest lake in Azerbaijan, sits
inside the Agh Gol National Park in the Kur-Araz lowlands. The arid landscape
creates a nesting spot for migratory birds, while the lake is full of fish. And the
views are spectacular. Imagine a blue-green lake surrounded by a band of trees
with mountains in the distance.
Quba:Quba in the country’s northeast is an important destination for Azerbaijan
culture. The ancient mountain town along the Qudailchay River is a stone’s
throw from remote villages full of history. A small all-Jewish settlement sits on
the opposite side of the river traversing the town. Craggy mountains and valleys
surround the cultural communities. The nearby village of Khinalug at 2350
metres (7710 feet) offers stunning mountain landscapes and plenty of hiking
opportunities.

● Listening to music while you study English can wake up your mind and
put you in a better mood to learn. Happy songs can help you feel re-
energized and motivated if you’re getting bored, while calming music
can help you feel more relaxed if you’re feeling nervous about an
upcoming test.
● Keep in mind, however, that listening to music with lyrics can actually
distract you from what you’re studying. The words of the song can
take your attention away from the English words you’re trying to learn. If
this bothers you, then you can study with music that doesn’t have lyrics,
like jazz or classical.

The head of state also signed an order approving the composition of the
supervisory board of the Karabakh Revival Foundation. According to the order,
the following composition of the supervisory board of the so-called Karabakh
Revival Foundation was approved:
Supervisory board
The reality that emerged after the glorious victory in the Second
Karabakh War is in sight. The number one priority issue is to carry out
restoration and construction works in the territories freed from
occupation, to create new infrastructures, to attract investments, in short,
to turn Karabakh into a paradise again.
The president defined two items of the five priorities (a large return to the
territories freed from occupation and a clean environment, a "green
growth" country) in accordance with this direction. Because the
territories freed from occupation have great economic potential, and of
course, Azerbaijan can make maximum use of this potential. The
successful implementation of these two directions suggests that the
dividends that will soon be obtained from the economic opportunities of
Karabakh can create a real basis for the further rise of the country's
power.
Because in Karabakh there is a great development potential of fields such
as mining industry, metallurgy, food industry, knitting, tourism,
agriculture and "green energy". The restoration of the new international
and regional transport-logistics corridor will increase our country's access
to global markets and will give a significant boost to the development of
territories freed from occupation.
The investment of 2.2 billion manats in Karabakh at the expense of the state
budget also confirms that the economic infrastructures to be created in the
territories freed from occupation will create a great opportunity for sustainable
development.
At the same time, large companies of foreign countries are showing great
interest in investing in lands freed from occupation.
Already, the flow of investments for the reconstruction of Karabakh has started
from countries such as Turkey, Italy, Great Britain, Pakistan, and Israel.
If we look at the important infrastructures currently being built in our territories
freed from occupation, we will see that today in Karabakh Barda-Aghdam
highway, Zafar road (asphalting will be completed in September), Fuzuli-
Shusha highway, Horadiz-Aghband road, Zangilan-Gubadli- Lachin road,
Fuzuli-Hadrut,
Fuzuli-Jabrayil roads, roads are built from Goygol to Omar pass to easily reach
Kalbajar. Also, military important roads are being built in Kalbajar and Lachin
regions.
Lotfi A.Zadeh.
Zadeh was born in Baku, Azerbaijan SSR as Lotfi Aliaskerzadeh.His father
was Rahim Aleskerzade, an Iranian Muslim Azerbaijani journalist from Ardabil
on assignment from Iran, and his mother was Fanya (Feyga) Korenman, a
Jewish pediatrician from Odesa, Ukraine, who was an Iranian citizen.
The Soviet government at this time courted foreign correspondents, and the
family lived well while in Baku.
Zadeh attended elementary school for three years there,which he said "had a
significant long-lasting influence on my thinking and my way of looking at
things."
Iran
In 1931, when Stalin began agricultural collectivization,and Zadeh was ten, his
father moved his family back to Tehran, Iran. Zadeh was enrolled in Alborz
High School, a missionary school,where he was educated for the next eight
years, and where he met his future wife,
Fay (Faina) Zadeh, who said that he was "deeply influenced" by the "extremely
decent, fine, honest and helpful" Presbyterian missionaries from the United
States who ran the college. "To me they represented the best that you could find
in the United States – people from the Midwest with strong roots.
They were really 'Good Samaritans' – willing to give of themselves for the
benefit of others. So this kind of attitude influenced me deeply. It also instilled
in me a deep desire to live in the United States." During this time, Zadeh was
awarded several patents.Zadeh sat for the Iran national university exams and
placed third in the nation.
As a student, he ranked first in his class in his first two years. In 1942, he
graduated from the University of Tehran with a degree in electrical engineering,
one of only three students in that field to graduate that year, due to the turmoil
created by World War II, when the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union
invaded Iran.
Over 30,000 American soldiers were based there, and Zadeh worked with his
father, who did business with them as a contractor for hardware and building
materials.
United States
In 1943, Zadeh decided to leave for the United States to continue his
education.He travelled to Philadelphia by way of Cairo after months of delay
waiting first for the proper papers and later for the right ship to appear. He
arrived in mid-1944, lived in New York and worked for an electronic
association,and entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) as a
graduate student in September that year.
While in the United States, he shortened his family name, creating a new
middle name from the part he removed, and was thenceforth known as Lotfi
Aliasker Zadeh.He received an MS degree in electrical engineering from MIT
in 1946.
In 1947, as his parents had settled in New York City, Zadeh went to work as an
engineer at Columbia University. Zadeh then applied to Columbia University.
- What are the benefits of our citizens studying abroad for Azerbaijan?
- Education is an important factor in the development of society, regardless of
where it is received. As for the citizens of Azerbaijan to study abroad, thanks
to this, the country produces personnel and specialists who have acquired
wider knowledge and the experience of developed countries. This directly
affects the development of
Azerbaijan. In addition, it is important in terms of the formation and growth of
Azerbaijan's diaspora in foreign countries. As I mentioned above, it is very
necessary to promote the culture and ancient history of Azerbaijan and to
introduce it to the world.
- Why is education important for the development of society?
- The greatest investment of a nation is its history, culture and values. Education
is the tool that preserves these and transfers them to future generations.
Well-educated, well-educated specialists in all fields own these values and fight
to protect, continue and develop them. But those who are deprived of this
thought will blow away what they have ("father's inheritance") and expose a
nation to destruction. An uneducated and illiterate society is doomed.
The centuries-old glorious historical path of the Olympic Games has not yet
been shared by any civilization or state. The age of the ancient Olympics (776
BC to 393 BC) is 1170 years, compared to the age of Western Rome (844 years)
and the Russian Empire (196).
The 293rd Olympic Games, held in 393 AD, were the last of the centuries-old
games. In 394, Feodosius I strictly banned these games. He wrote his name in
the history of mankind with his bad deeds, such as canceling the great sports
festival with ancient history and burning the library of Alexandria. 30 years
later, Theodosius II destroyed the Olympic temples. After the earthquakes of
551 and 552, the ruins of Olympia remained underground.
The search for the extinct Olympian civilization of the ancient Greeks is a
wonderful subject for novels and screenplays.
Here the roles are played by the colorful figures who first discovered the secrets
of Olympia: antique lovers, adventurous treasure hunters, world-renowned
scientists and simple, ordinary workers working in the field of archaeology. The
secrets of ancient Olympia were lost in the deep layers of the earth for a long
time. But no! They began to remember it in the Middle Ages and the
Renaissance, even if they did not know exactly where it was located. Until then,
it was assumed that the temple of the sacred Zeus and the place where the
Hellenic games were held were at the feet of Olympus.
But who and when disturbed the tranquility of the vanished world of Olympia?
On June 4, 1723, monk-Benedict Bernard Montfacon, who was familiar with
Pavsani's "Description of Hellas" and author of articles on ancient wonders of
the world, informed the Bishop of Corfu that there are valuable treasures -
statues, reliefs, plates and monuments - in the land of Olympia. .
It is likely that the French monk got hold of the Venetian map of 1516, which
confirmed the facts about the Quicay valley and its treasures. Although the
monk suggested that the archbishop be interested in the mystery of the
Peloponnesus, the other did not agree to this, as he was wary of touching the
sacred monuments of the pagans.
In 1764, the German Johann Joachim Winckelmann's book "History of the Art
of
Antiquity", published in the Weimar printing house, soon resonated throughout
the German state and its principalities. The book also mentioned the possibility
of other finds in Olympia along with the ancient stadium.
Winkelman's book was not a small success. However, the book did not bring the
expected financial result for the excavation work.
Despite this, he developed a plan to excavate the city of Olympia and managed
to get permission from the ruling circles of Turkey, calculating the financial
costs for the implementation of this plan in gold coins. However, in 1768 he
was killed by robbers in one of the Trieste hotels, so Winckelmann could not
realize his plan to conduct excavations on the banks of the
Alpheus River. In 1766, Oxford archaeologist Richard Chapdler, while traveling
to the
Peloponnese, found on the left bank of the Claudius river, the remains of the
walls of a huge temple used as building material by the local population, the
remains of the colonies built by the Dorians.
In 1787, Fauvel, the French consul in Athens, discovered the location of the
temple of Zeus during an excursion to Olympia. In 1821-1824, the Greeks'
struggle for freedom and independence against Turkey allowed Europe to talk
about the mysterious and magical Hellas, the homeland of legends, democracy,
Homer's beautiful works, and the Olympic Games.
On May 9, 1829, the honor of conducting the first scientific excavations was
finally awarded to the soldiers of General Mason, who carried out the liberation
mission in Greece after the naval battle of Navarre in 1827, rather than
scientists and diggers. However, the excavation work was not led by the
general, but by the French scientists Dubois and Blue.
The French expedition began to conduct the first excavations in the temple of
Zeus. On the west side of the temple, they discovered plaques depicting the 12
types of heroism of Hercules, and on the eastern facade, fragments of relief
images of horses depicting the duel between Oenomai and Pelops. The findings
were sent to France via the Alpheus River.
