The Ottoman periodical Davul (
Ottoman Turkish: داوول) was published in
Istanbul weekly between 27 October 1908 and 27 May 1909 in a total of 24 issues.[1] The satirical magazine was edited by Hasan Vasıf (1889-1944), an Ottoman politician and physician.[2] The numerous satirical illustrations and
caricatures deal with the Ottoman and
European politics of that time. In their humorous articles the authors criticize i.a.
Abdülhamid II, the whole Ottoman policies and the European way of life.[3] In addition, excerpts of the French magazine Fantasie in
French language were published in some issues.[2]
The Chicago Ottoman Microfilms Project initiated by the
University of Chicago in 1985 archived the issues of Davul.[4]
