History and profile edit
Dün ve Bugün was first published in Istanbul on 4 November 1955.[1] The magazine was established by Eşref Ekicigil and Feridun Kandemir and was published by the Ekicigil publishing House on a weekly basis.[2][3] As a reference to its title it included reports on recent history of Turkey and included many analyses on the Independence Tribunal.[4]
Shortly after its start Dün ve Bugün became one of the critics of the DP.[4] As a result of its harsh criticism against the DP the page number of the magazine gradually decreased since the magazine experienced a serious paper shortage.[1]
Its regular contributors were leading opposition figures, including Nurettin Artam, Altan Tan, Hüsnü Oğuz Erkmen, Kemal Yalaz, Nizamettin Nazif Tepedelenlioğlu, Sadettin Işık, Raif Karadağ and Burhan Felek.[1] Some former DP members such as Fuat Köprülü, Muhlis Ete, Fevzi Lütfi Karaosmanoğlu and Refik Koraltan wrote for the magazine.[2] The magazine also republished articles of Yakup Kadri Karaosmanoğlu, Hüseyin Cahit Yalçın, Namık Zeki Aral ve Hicret Cambazoğlu which had been featured in Ulus.[1] It also contained interviews with major opposition figures, including Şemsettin Günaltay and Fethi Çelikbaş.[1]
Dün ve Bugün folded on 5 December 1956 after forty-eight issues.[2]
