Notes In this study, ulema and intellectuals are two types of intellectuals who represent the Ottoman classical age and the modernization process after the Tanzimat. These two types also represent the mentality of their period, their perspective on events, and the Ottoman imagination. By nature, there can be a difference and conflict between these two types of intellectuals. This situation manifests itself in many issues. In this study, we will put local languages, specifically the Kurdish language, at the center of this difference of thought and perspective: We will examine the perspective of the ulama, who were educated in the traditional style in the classical period of the Ottoman Empire, and the intellectuals who were educated in the Western style in the modern period, on the local languages ​​spoken in the Ottoman Empire, especially Kurdish. “Where did these two educated groups place the Kurds and the Kurdish language in the current situation and future planning of the Ottoman Empire?” We will look for an answer to the question. We will examine with examples how multilingualism, which was an ordinary phenomenon in the imperial atmosphere in the Ottoman classical era, became a "problem" to be solved in the post-Tanzimat period. In this context, personalities such as Gelibolulu Âli, Evliya Çelebi, Namık Kemal, Şemseddin Sâmi, Babanzade İsmail Hakkı, Said-i Meşhûr, Abdullah Cevdet, Ziya Gökalp, as well as the Kurd Teavün and Terakki Newspaper published in Istanbul, Rojî Kurd magazine, Serbestî newspaper and Peymân newspaper published in Diyarbekir. will be our main research resources.
