The Persian-language magazine Ruznama-yi Millati (Persian: روزنامه ملتی; translated: The National Journal), was published between 1866 and 1870 in Tehran.[1] It was published monthly in a total of 33 issues.[1] Together with the magazines Ruznama-i Dawlati and the Ruznama-i ʿilmi, Ruznama-yi Millati used to be published under the superintendence of Iʿtizāduʾ s-Salṭana.[1] The upper part of each page shows the figure of a mosque, which displays the national character of the magazine.[1]
Its content focuses primary on the bibliographies of famous poets.[1] A stated goal of the magazine was to move away from the written language of the elite to the spoken language of the masses by adopting a style directed toward communication with the people (mardum).[2]
