THE REGIONAL INFLUENCE OF “SHARG GADİNİ” MAGAZINE IN THE TURKISH WORLD

Abstract

The reasons that necessitated the creation of the magazine “Sharg gadini” (trans. “Eastern Woman”) published in 1923 were investigated. It has been shown that the creation of the magazine was influenced by popular magazines published in Russia from the middle of the 19th century to the 20th year of the 20th century. At the same time, there was the influence of the Ottoman state, which was considered one of the sources of power in the Muslim world of that period. Thus, the approaches of women's magazines published in the same period as "Sharg gadini" were similar in terms of the problems faced by Ottoman Turks and Azerbaijani Turks, and the same difficulties in the process of upbringing and education. Also, shortly after the publication of the "Sharg gadini" magazine, its influence spread to Turkestan and Tatarstan. The First Turkological Congress held in Baku had an exceptional impact on this process. The "Sharg gadini" magazine had a great influence on the publication of magazines such as "Maarif va oktuchi" and "Saodat" women's magazine published in Uzbekistan after 1925 and "shining in the artistic and literary environment to eliminate illiteracy and cause the light of enlightenment to burn brightly."
