The Objective of the Conference
A thousand years ago, Central Asia developed a brilliant civilization. Predominantly Central Asian Turkic-nomadic culture and Islam in addition to the contributions of Hindu, Chinese, Persian, Arabic, and Greek cultures gave birth to a cultural renaissance in Turkestan in the 11th century. This period, golden age of Central Asia, was the time of great scholars and poets. Yusuf Balasaguni, born in Balasagun, situated on the territory of today's Kyrgyzstan, wrote his famous book "Kutadgu Bilig" (Beneficient Knowledge) in Kashgar, today in Uygur region of northwest China, both cities as important cultural centers of that age on the great Silk Road. An international conference and discussion on 'Yusuf Balasaguni and his Ideas in the Contemporary World', aimed at bringing together academicians and experts from different universities at different countries on an academic platform, will be specifically meaningful when held in such an era in which inter-civilizational dialogue has gained special importance.
