Hakkı Arar Papers Collection ID ARCH01968 Creator Arar, İsmail Hakkı Period 1905-1993 Extent 10.2 m. Language list English Language of Material Turkish Context Biographical Note Born in İstanbul 1921, died in 1993; lawyer; studied law at the University of Ankara; had his legal practice in Istanbul; vice-president of the Bar 1948-1965; member of parliament for the Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP; Republican People's Party) 1965-1973; Turkish Minister of Justice, of Education and without portofolio 1971-1973; member of the advisory body set up by the military after the 1980 coup d'état 1981-1983; author of a great many books on Turkish modern history and the role of Kemal Atatürk. Acquisition The papers were purchased by the IISH from Asim Arar in 1996. Content and Structure Content Collection of mainly printed material relating to the first generation leadership of the Turkish Republic, including Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Fevzi Çakmak and Ismet Inönü, other participants of the struggle for independence and members of the political opposition during the first period of the Turkish Republic, including Cavit Bey, Çerkez Ethem and Riza Tevfik and some intellectuals, among others Halide E. Adıvar and Ziya Gökalp; the sultans Abdülaziz, Abdulhamid and Vahdettin; files on the Ittihad ve Terakki (Committee of Union and Progress), the İzmir conspiracy, the struggle for independence, political assassinations and other subjects. Arrangement The Arar collection was acquired by the IISH in 1996. Arar arranged his documents (or rather `documentation', since the collection consists almost entirely of printed material) in the form of files. All documents relating to the same subject are found in a single file, irrespective of the type of document concerned. These files are classified under two categories: biographical and thematic. Next to these files Arar had made separate series of notes, fiches and cataloguing cards, which are partly covering the same persons or subjects as in the files. He had also collected a series of press clippings, which he didn't add to the files and which have been arranged chronologically. The original arrangement of the collection has been largely retained. This is also true in respect of the biographical material, by which persons of Turkish nationality are arranged by forename, and persons of western nationality by surname. Surnames were not in use in Turkey during the period of the Ottoman Empire. Instead familiar names, titles and the like were used. Sometimes familiar names and titles were placed before the forename, sometimes after, and sometimes both before and after. In the case of Hoca Mustafa Efendi for example (see list no.209), Mustafa is the forename, Hoca and Efendi are titles. In the present collection he is listed under Hoca, just as he was in the original arrangement of İ. Arar. The files have been placed under different headings, which indicate their common subjects, periods or persons (for example K. Atatürk). A manuscript on the Armenian question has been placed at the end of the list, under the heading `Documents by others' because it was impossible to ascertain whether the manuscript was written by İ. Arar himself. Periodicals and pamphlets as far as they didn't belong to files have been transferred to the library of the IISH. The size of the collection is 10.25 metres.
