The volume frames generational dynamics through concepts such as the link and responsibilities between generations, the gap and clash separating them, and the emergence of “coming generations.” It also addresses the role of young writers, honesty as a foundation for innovation, and warnings and moral trials surrounding new poetry.","The Revolt of the Young  \nModern Intellectual and Political History of the Middle East Mehrzad Boroujerdi, Series Editor  \nOther titles in Modern Intellectual and Political History of the Middle East  \nBecoming Turkish: Nationalist Reforms and Cultural Negotiations in Early Republican Turkey (1923–1945)  \nHale Yılmaz The EsVsaelneiialse J. ofHIbādoffmīaIsnlam  \nEthnicity, Identity, and the Development of Nationalism in Iran David N.
