Pub Note:
"3 issues of the Ottoman law magazine Cerîde-i Adliyye with 3 colourful statistic covers. Presented here are 3 issues of a Turkish governmental magazine in Ottoman language, published in 1924 and 1925. 3 title pages of the issues include unique graphical presentations of the governmental statistics, unlike any others in Turkey nor in the western countries. The charts represent the financial data of the government, court, agriculture etc. in patterns, mimicking the title of the main subject, and combine the visual aspect with the sophisticated data in surrealistic complicated patterns. The magazine was first published by the Ministry of Justice on December 18th, 1909, and is still issued as a bimonthly today. The name changed from the original Cerîde-i Mehâkim-i Adliyye to Cerîde-i Adliyye to Resmi Kararlar Dergisi, Adalet Dergisi and finally to Adalet Dergisi (The Journal of Justice). The magazines only rarely survive with original covers and we could not establish how many were issued with data visualization charts. In 2017, some of the covers of the magazines were included in the exhibition Gözlere Konuşmak or Speak to the Eyes. Visualizing Information from the Ottoman Era to the Republic at Studio-X, founded at the initiative of Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation (GSAPP) in Istanbul. The magazine is scarce in the western Libraries. The Bavarian State Library and Orient-Institute in Istanbul house a complete series until no. 20 of 1929, as the Berlin State Library owes sporadic series. " (Alexander/Johnson, Dasa Pahor, 2021)
