Abstract
Süleyman Nazif; Servet-i Fünûn topluluğuna mensup olmakla birlikte Tanzimat zihniyetini devam ettirmiş bir şair, yazar ve gazetecidir. 2. Meşrutiyet'in ilanından sonra aktif olarak gazeteciliğe başlamış, 31 Mayıs 1909'da Ebüzziya Tevfik'le Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr'ı çıkarmaya başlamıştır. Yazarın 1 Ocak - 31 Temmuz 1909 arasındaki yazılarında ağırlığın siyasi konulara verildiği görülür. Devrin çalkantılı olmasının bunda payı vardır. Siyasi yazıların ağırlık noktasını da Girit meselesi hakkındaki yazılar oluşturur. Sosyal, ekonomik ve kültürel meseleler de bu yazılarda yer bulmuştur. Azınlıkların durumuna değinilmiş, hükümetin azınlıklar konusunda yapması gerekenler belirtilmiştir. Yazar, Osmanlı milletini oluşturan unsurların kardeşçe yaşamaları gerektiğini belirtmiş, herhangi bir etnik grubun kendi menfaatini öne çıkarmasını doğru bulmamıştır. Yazar, ülkenin geleceğini düşünmüş ve dönemin önemli gelişmelerini yorumlarken tarafsız davranmaya gayret etmiştir. İstikbal için endişelendiği her hâlinden belli olan yazar, İttihat ve Terakki hükümetini çekinmeden eleştirmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti'nin güçlü dönemlerinin geride kaldığını, o devirdeki ittifaklardan birine dâhil olunması gerektiğini söylemiştir. Bu dönemdeki son yazılarında, 2. Meşrutiyet'le ortaya çıkan tablonun istibdat devrindekinden çok da farklı olmadığını dile getirmeye başlamıştır. Yazarın devlet adamları hakkındaki görüşleri ve meselelere yaklaşım tarzı hürriyetçi ve meşrutiyetçi kimliğini göstermektedir. Dilde sadeleşmeye karşı çıkan Süleyman Nazif; bu dönemdeki yazılarında oldukça ağır bir dil kullanmıştır. Kelimelerini titizlikle seçmiş, Osmanlı nesrinin yetkin örneklerini vermiştir. Yazılarında edebî sanatlara ve özlü söz niteliğinde cümlelere rastlamak mümkündür. Süleyman Nazif'in yazıları, o devre ışık tutmaları açısından tarihî, sanatkârane bir anlayışla kaleme alınmaları açısından edebî değer taşımaktadır.
