Özet
Kafkasya'da binlerce yıllık bir geçmişe sahip olan Çerkezler, 19. yüzyıldaki Rus işgali ve ardından Ruslar tarafından sürgüne maruz bırakılmadan önce kalabalık bir halk olup Kuzey-Batı Kafkasya'da geniş ve zengin bir coğrafyada yaşamışlar ve kendilerine özgü kültürleri ve yaşam tarzlarıyla dikkat çekmişlerdir. Bugün de hala birçok yönüyle korunan ve yaşatılan Çerkez kültürüne dair 17. ve 18. yüzyıllarda en yoğun gözlemlerde bulunan ve bu gözlemlerini ve edindikleri diğer bilgileri not edenler özellikle Batılı seyyah ve araştırmacılar olmuştur. İmparatorluğun yeni parçası olarak Kafkasya'yı araştırmak ve tanımak için özellikle Rus Çarlığı tarafından gönderilen bu seyyahların eserlerinde bulunan Çerkezler hakkındaki zengin bilgiler, bugün Çerkez siyasi tarihinin aydınlatılmasının yanında Çerkezlerin kültür tarihine de ışık tutmaktadırlar.
The Circassians, who inhabited the Caucasus for thousands of years, were a large nation before Cherkessia was occupied by the Russians in the 19th century and its people were forced into exile. They lived in the Northwest Caucasus, which was a large and fertile area, and aroused interest because of their distinctive culture and lifestyle. In particular, the Western travelers and researchers observed the Circassian culture, which is still preserved and kept alive in many respects, very intensively in the 17th and 18th centuries and recorded their observations and other information they found about the Circassians. The detailed information about the Circassians, that can be found in the works of these travelers, who were sent to the Caucasus by the Russian Empire to explore this region as a new part of the empire, illuminate not only the political history of the Circassians but also their cultural history.
