Öz

The Young Turk Revolution which led to the proclamation of the Second
Constitution in 1908, was a major driving force behind the publication of a
large number of journals in early 20th century Turkey. Genç Mühendis (The
Young Engineer, 1909) and the Osmanlı Mühendis ve Mimar Cemiyeti
Mecmuası (The Journal of the Ottoman Society for the Architects and
Engineers, 1912) were among the earliest journals published in Turkish by the
Ottoman architects and engineers. The presence of a large number of European
architects and engineers in the Ottoman Empire paved the way for the
publishing of journals in languages other than Turkish. The present paper aims
to introduce the Génie Civil Ottoman and the Zeitschrift für Technik und
Industrie in der Turkei, published in the aftermath of the Young Turk
Revolution, popularly known as “the area of freedom”.

The Génie Civil Ottoman was published between the years 1910 and
1914. Its editor-in-chief was Alexandre M. Raymond, an architect also
reknowned for his work on Islamic art. The editorial board was mostly
composed of civil enginners and architects but also included a number of
electrical, agricultural, chemical and mining engineers. Most of the articles
focus the public works carried on in the Ottoman Empire and its natural
resources. Articles introducing French investments and companies in Turkey
reflects the journal’s close bias towards French entrepreneurs. 

The Zeitschrift für Technik und Industrie in der Turkei, first saw the
press in 1916, during the WW1. Its publication can be considered within the
French-German rivalry in engineering in the Ottoman Empire. The articles are
published in German, French and Turkish and deals with the public work
projects carried on in the Otoman Empire and the status of its mineral
resources. 

Both journals were interested in the issues related to the evolution of
engineering and architecture as a profession and published a number of articles
to discuss the position of architects and engineers working in the Empire.
Together with articles dealing with engineering, industral and economical
aspects of public work projects, both journals are primary sources for
evaluating work done in the last decade of the Ottoman Empire.
