American Missionaries’ Approach To The Ottomans’ And Republican Understanding Republican Understanding Of Education In The Late 19th And Early 20th

Summary/Abstract: American missionaries, who had many opportunities of being engaged in educational activities during the Ottoman Regression Period, became influential on awakening of Armenian nationalism by means of the history lessons taught in their schools. American schools were affiliated with the “American Board of Commissioner for Foreign Mission”, as an American missionary association founded in 1810 in Boston functioning across the Ottoman country. However, the curriculum of history taught in those schools was not compatible with that of the Ottoman State. The American missionary schools manipulated educational activities for arising national consciousness among minorities in the areas they were serving. In this study, schools opened by American missionaries across the Ottoman territory and history lessons taught in those schools are investigated. Educational policies implemented during the Ottoman and Republic Period are addressed in general terms.
