Yeni Dergi (Turkish: The New Magazine) was a monthly cultural magazine which was published in Istanbul, Turkey, between 1964 and 1975. The magazine featured both translations and original texts from different fields.
Yeni Dergi was first published in October 1964.[1] Its publisher was De Publications which was owned by Memet Fuat, a Turkish author, and the stated aim of the magazine was to enrich the knowledge base of the Turkish intellectuals.[1] [2] Memet Fuat was also the editor-in-chief of the magazine which mostly featured translations of the modernist literary work and contemporary critical theory from the Western sources.[3] [4] [5] The latter group of texts were about philosophy, aesthetics, politics, and psychology.[1] The most frequent topics covered were existentialism and Marxist criticism.[1] [6] The magazine also published thematic issues two of which were concerned with the work of Herbert Marcuse and Prague Spring.[5] From 1969 Yeni Dergi contained less translated texts, and focused on original Turkish works.[1] One of its leading contributors was Tomris Uyar.[7] Conservative poet Cahit Zarifoğlu published articles in the magazine until 1971.[8]
