Biography

[edit]

Taner Murat was born on 8 May 1959 in Constanța, Romania.[2] Until 1985 he studied technics in Sibiu.[3] A while he did work in technical projects. He learned Turkish, and tried to evolve his Tatar knowledge. But he wanted to join the Tatar language section in University of Bucharest, however it was closed. Therefore he did read the books of the teachers Şukran Vuap-Mocanu, Agiemin Baubec and Mihai Maxim, including the Altaic languages teachers Mustafa Öner, Marcel Erdal, Sir Gerard Clauson, Philippe-Schmerka Blacher and Vladimir Drîmba.[3] Going to the mosque is a pleasure for him.[3] Murat is considered an expert on the Romanian Tatars and their language. He aims to preserve and research the culture and heritage of the Romanian Tatars. Murat has translated the works of dozens of authors into Dobrujan Tatar and Romanian, but also from French, German and English. He is an editor of the bilingual Dobrujan Tatar–Romanian magazine Emel and founder of the English–Tatar magazine Nazar Look (نَظَرْ لُوقٌ‎) and the Musa Gelil Library of Tatar-related matters. He founded the multicultural organization Anticus and the publisher Anticus Press in Constanța. Murat was one of the organizers of the international conference "Annual Kurultai on the Endangered Cultural Heritage".[4]
