What shaped the language of public discourse among the Tatars of the Volga-Ural region in the early twentieth century? And what did written (Old) Tatar sound like? These questions echoed in my mind each time I attempted to read these sources aloud. Over time, these recordings became my working voice notes: a space to return to, in order to clarify forgotten details. This podcast brings together a series of readings from periodicals published in the Volga-Ural region of late imperial Russia, in the (Old) Tatar language. Cover artwork specially created by Niiaz Khaziakhmetov for this podcast.

    Ep. 1: A Beginning – The First Words of Şura (1908) and a Forgotten Poem (1884)

    In this first episode, I read and comment two early texts in (Old) Tatar. The first is the programmatic editorial article from the opening issue of Şura (1908), a prominent Tatar journal of the time, outlining the goals and planned sections of the publication. The second is a short poem written by the poet Därdmänd in 1884. Both texts are read aloud in (Old) Tatar and followed by commentary in modern Tatar.
