Malumat – “Ecumenical Patriarch Anthimus VII, Ottoman Diplomats and International Landmarks” – Issue No. 48 – August 20, 1896 (8 August 1312) – Ottoman Turkish Edition

Description:

Ma'lûmât was an important Ottoman weekly scholarly, scientific, and literary periodical published in Istanbul during the reign of Sultan Abdülhamid II, from May 23, 1895, to August 20, 1903. One of the longest-running cultural publications of the period, the magazine aimed to inform its readers about a wide range of subjects, including literature, science, industry, commerce, and social life. Its contents covered current developments across the Ottoman Empire and the wider world, scientific and technological advances, history, geography, philosophy, and medicine, alongside poetry, short stories, and literary criticism. The magazine also reflected the growing interest in a more accessible and modern style of Turkish writing.

The cover of this forty-eighth issue, dated August 20, 1896, features a portrait of His Holiness Anthimus VII, Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. The issue also includes portraits of prominent international and diplomatic figures, including Sir Vincent Caillard, Chairman of the Council of the Ottoman Public Debt Administration, and Monsieur Mitar Bakić, who served as Chargé d'Affaires of the Montenegrin Legation in Constantinople. An illustrated article titled “Müzâkerât-ı Mahsûsa” explores the workings of human curiosity and the desire for investigation, examining their benefits and potential disadvantages through a philosophical and literary perspective.

The geographical coverage includes a photograph of the İzmir waterfront, the Tevfikiyye Barracks (Kasr el-Nil Barracks) on the banks of the Nile in Cairo, and a Buddhist temple in Osaka, Japan. The issue also features a photograph of the historic Mühlbrunn Colonnade in Karlsbad, associated with one of the city's famous thermal water springs. In addition, an article examines the simplification of the Ottoman Turkish language, reflecting contemporary discussions about language, literature, and accessibility.
