A GLANCE AT THE ATTEMPT OF AN OTTOMAN INTELLECTUAL AHMET MITHAT EFENDI TO UNDERSTAND THE WEST IN THE EAST-WEST DILEMMA

Abstract

With the entrepreneur spirit and a lot of works, Ahmet Mithat Efendi is one of the important Ottoman intellectuals in the Administrative Reforms Period of Ottomans. He had a trip to Europe, and he made a new approach with material and moral culture in his observation to Europe. While he admired the West by the material point, he criticized the moral values of Westerners. According to this point he built up a more reliable sociological approach than former observers of the West. Ahmet Mithat who thought the material and moral culture separation appropriate and possible for Ottomans also, had motivated with the idea of modern Ottoman Empire which also linked with traditional values. Ahmet Mithat, while he makes the West an object of a sociological thinking, he also becomes for us one of the beginning steps for the occidantalist expression. In his all works he chose being a recommender like a lecturer. So, his works have more didactic characteristics than artistic. He made an ideal Ottoman type with the character of Râkım Efendi and with the Felâtun Bey he also indicated some problems of Westernization in Ottoman.
