Abstract
Historiography of science cannot be written correctly without mentioning the studies which constructed the main lines of Ottoman history of science. One of such studies is the pamphlet Terakkiyyât-ı ?İlmiyye ve Medeniyye of Ahmed Rasim. With all its shortcomings, this pamphlet is worth to be introduced as a short history of Turkish science. This paper aims to give a general understanding of the historiography of science during the Ottoman era via introducing the Terakkiyyât-ı ?İlmiyye ve Medeniye of Ahmed Rasim, one of the Turkish intellectuals and publishers of the late Ottoman Empire.
