    Millet-i-Israiliye (1888, Ottoman Empire)

    The 1888 publication  Millet-i Israiliye (Nation of Israel) by Ebüzziya Tevfik is considered the first antisemitic book in Turkish literature. Published in the Ottoman Empire, the work examines Jewish morality and the historical factors behind Jewish exile while proposing a so-called "solution" to the "Jewish question." It is one of the two oldest books in the Khajistan Toshakhana collection, the other being Badi Jantri, a Shia almanac from 1894.
