Child in Our Traditional Culture in the Road From Birth to Military Service

Summary/Abstract: This is a study based on the book named Children in Our Traditional Culture which is written by Sedat Veyis Örnek. The book is introduced in general outlines througout the article. While this book offers us a comprehensive and rich detailed review about child-related traditions, it also contains significant information regarding its subject of study. Since Örnek believed that the comments and the attitudes differ by the time, he restricted his own interpretations regarding the subject to only the introduction part of his book. Therefore, he intended to present a systematic instrument open to be utilized and evaluated by the audience. This book is an objective description of traditional practices by Sedat Veyis Örnek. He classifed his data into two seperate groups such as modern medicine and religious/magical treatment. Same classifications can be seen in the Works of Evans Pritchard and Levy Bruhl and Rivers. In his studies in order to reach from local to national and than to universal, he tries to determine each and every aspect of customs and traditions. While achieving his goal he acts with the awareness of citizenship expected from his generation.
