‘Sahne-i Alem‘de Şakımak: Kanto ve Geç Osmanlı Döneminde Sosyal Hayat

Year 2021, Issue: 2, 13 - 32, 15.10.2021

Abstract

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun son döneminde sahne tiyatrosu yeni sosyal faaliyetlerin sergilendiği, değişen moda ve alışkanlıkların ifade edildiği önemli mekanlar arasındaydı. Sahne mensupları, aktörler, aktristler ve tiyatro yönetmenleri, Osmanlı kültür hayatının modernizminde adeta kilit rolleri temsil ediyorlardı. 1898’de bir grup sanatçı İstanbul’da Sahne-i Âlem adlı bir tiyatro kumpanyası kurdu. Kısa süren faaliyetlerine rağmen bu kumpanya Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun son döneminde kadının sosyal görünürlük kazandığı ve şahsi insiyatifini sergilediği önemli gelişmelerden birine tanıklık etti. Bu makale, Sahne-i Âlem’e mensup üç şarkıcı ve aktristi (Peruz Terzakyan, Şamram Kelleciyan ve Minyon Virjini) modernleşen bir kentin ve onu biçimlendiren öğelerin temsilcisi olarak incelemektedir. İstanbul’un marjinal kesimlerine mensup gayrimüslim kadın kanto sanatçılarını inceleyen çalışma aynı zamanda son dönem Osmanlı sosyal hayatının az bilinen bazı yönlerine ışık tutmaktadır.

Singing on ‘The World's Stage’: Kanto and Late Ottoman Social Life

Year 2021, Issue: 2, 13 - 32, 15.10.2021

Abstract

The staged theater was among the most crucial venues during the late Ottoman Empire for the expression of new modes of social activity and the display of changing fashions and customs, and as such actors, actresses and theater managers represented key figures in the broader process of Ottoman cultural modernization. In 1898, a group of rising artists founded a theater company in Istanbul named the Sahne-i Âlem, “The World’s Stage.” Despite the brief period in which it operated, the theater represented a major development in the public visibility and self-management of women’s labor in the late Ottoman Empire. This paper examines three actresses and singers who managed the Sahne-i Âlem (Peruz Terzakyan, Şamram Kelleciyan and Minyon Virjini) as representative of the modernized city and the discourses that shaped it. The study, which examines non-Muslim female kanto artists belonging to the marginalized populations of Istanbul, explores some of the more understudied aspects of social life during the last years of the Ottoman period.
