Research on Middle Eastern press is of great importance for
comparative historical studies. Many editors of newspapers and
magazines were not only journalists, but also writers, poets,
thinkers and politicians. These intellectual leaders used
non-official journals as a means of accelerating public discourse
on reforms in the Ottoman Empire are later on in its successor
states. Introducing new genres of literature to the Middle East
they serialized novels, short stories and travelogues, experimented
with new kinds of poetry and let satire blossom. The 15
contributors approach this thematics from different perspectives:
Some concentrate on certain newspapers, literary journals or
satirical magazines, others centre on the biographies of editors or
writers. Although the main focus of this book is on the Ottoman and
Persian press until 1914, some articles extend this scope to
include Post-Ottoman Iraq, Syria, Turkey and Cyprus.
