Born in 1843 in Preveza, Abidin Pasha was one of the prominent statesmen whose name can be mentioned in this context. His grandson Celal Nuri İleri, who was born to his daughter Nefise Hanım, was a man of ideas who read and produced a lot like himself, and with hundreds of articles and articles he wrote, he took his place among the names whose influence was felt in the foundations of the newly established state. Born in 1882 in Gallipoli, Celal Nuri, just like his grandfather Abidin Pasha, grew up as a highly cultured man of law due to the environment he lived in and the education he received. However, his interest in the profession of journalism led him to shape his life in that direction and paved the way for him to write and publish articles in which he expressed his opinions on many subjects. As a matter of fact, the author, who not only wrote newspaper articles but also literary works, was likened to ’a writing machine with eighty horsepower’. Drawing attention to women’s rights and the value given to women for the realisation of political maturation, the author analysed the problems of Ottoman and Turkish women and proposed social and legal solutions in his book titled Kadınlarımız. The author, who gave enough importance to this subject to write an independent work, also included this subject in his stories and classified the women in his stories into classifications and assigned them various roles. In this study, we will analyse the female protagonists in Celal Nuri İleri’s stories published in magazines and newspapers and try to concretise the ’ideal’ woman type.}, number={29}, publisher={Trakya University}
