Dr Ibrahim Temo - the founder of the young turks commitee "Unity and Progres"

Summary/Abstract: Dr. Ibrahim Terno, the founder of the Young Turks Committee »Unity and Progress« is not unknown either in Turkish or Albanian historiography. But in both of them his role has been presented rather one-sidedly. In Turkish historical works, as well as in the foreign ones published in Europe, which deal wtith the young Turks Movement, Temo has been mentioned only as the founder of this Committee; a few details about his arrest and escape to Romania, and his founding of the Democratic Party of Turkey have been given, but his cultural and educational activity among the Turks of Dobrudja has not been mentioned; nothing is known about his works written in Turkish nor about his various activities concerning the Albanian National Movement. On the other hand, Dr. I. Temo is mentioned in the Albanian historical works, but his cultural and educational activity, his works, even his activitty as a publisher have also remained, completely unknown. However, Temo's role both as a figter against the sultan's absolutism, and as fighter for the political, cultural and educational emanc~pation of the Albanian people, is much greater and far more complex.
