Lady Mary Wortley Montagu’dan ve ona mektuplar

Mary Wortley Montagu’s travel letters were written to some individuals such as Lady Mar, Alexander Pope, and Abbé Conti. Katharine Branning’s travel letters, on the other hand, have been written to Lady Mary Wortley Montagu but at the same time, the writer is addressing these letters to her family, friends, readers and also Turkish people. Branning, who has spent some thirty years in Turkey, is now explaining what has changed in the country so far and sharing her personal experiences. Thus, this article examines two memoirs of two women travel writers. The idea that these women travelogs had in mind was to be the voice of Turkish people; therefore, they both wrote about Turkey, its people and their way of life. So, this study will determine how Turkish women and Turkish way of life have been depicted by two western women, British and American. Moreover, there will also be some focus on the image of Turkish Women. The main intention is to discover whether there have been great changes in the Turkish way of life and the living conditions after Montagu’s memoir, The Turkish Embassy Letter
