Description

Ragıp Rıfkı Özgürel

Istanbul:  Cihan Matbaası  1341 [1925]. 

A rare book on astrology was written by Ragıp Rıfkı, the foremost Ottoman pioneer of spiritualism and the concept of spiritism as defined by Allan Kardec. Rıfkı, who later took the family name of Özgürel, was also known as a translator in the later Ottoman empire and author of political and spiritual texts in the early Turkish Republic. His most affluent work is a German-Turkish dictionary.

According to Worldcat only the Princeton University Library houses an example of the book.
