Summary
Or like stout Cortez, when with eagle eyes
He star'd at the Pacific – and all his men
Look'd at each other with a wild surmise –
Silent, upon a peak in Darien.
(John Keats, On First Looking into Chapman's Homer)When do I recall Çiğdem Kağıtçıbaşı coming into my life? My first recollection is of her introducing herself to me at the Kyoto International Conference Center in 1990. “I have been reading your work, and it's time we talked,” I recall her saying. We strolled out to the broad expanse of the quiet pond area behind the buzzing hall, and began a colleagueship that has lasted these eighteen years. One significant development in our rich relationship stands out for present purposes – Çiğdem's intellectual autobiography that I commissioned for a collection in which some of my cross-cultural heroes considered and described how they crafted their life and career in culture (Kağıtçıbaşı 1997). Çiğdem “crossed the Bosphorus” a decade before I crossed the Pacific, and her reflections on her “life-in-culture” provoked me then and now to rethink mine, ten years after I made my own first attempt at a career self-assessment (Bond 1997). This chapter is another step in the extended conversation I have been enjoying with Çiğdem, who is a muse for me as well as the doyen of Turkish psychology.
