Memories of Atatürk

Memories of Atatürk

Memories of Atatürk was written by Afet İnan, one of the prominent figures of the early Republic. In this work, the author recounts the events, observations, and memories accumulated during her many years of close collaboration and educational association with Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. The book reveals not only Atatürk’s identity as a statesman but also, through firsthand testimony, the importance he attached to education, history, culture, and science.

Through Afet İnan’s narrative, Atatürk’s work ethic, human relationships, perspective on youth, and the significant developments that took place during the founding years of the Republic are presented in a sincere and engaging style. The memoirs contained in the volume offer valuable insights into both the establishment of the Republic of Türkiye and Atatürk’s intellectual world.

An important source for modern historical research, this work serves as a valuable reference not only for readers wishing to gain a deeper understanding of Atatürk but also for scholars interested in the history of the Turkish Republic.
