Abstract: Recep Bilginer was born in 1922, towards the end of the National Struggle. His childhood and youth were spent in a difficult period before and during the Second World War. An important portion of the author’s memories were shaped by the problems of the Republic, Atatürk’s revolutions, liberty, the single-party period, the privileged period, sometimes discrimination, favoritism, and the transition to the multi-party period. For that reason, he thought that his generation was wasted by various troubles. From the moment he entered life as a child to his youth, the period in which he experienced the most trouble and injustice was the single-party years.R. Bilginer started his real profession, journalism, in Eskisehir during the CHP period and completed his education at the Journalism Institute in Istanbul and then continued his work at the “Vatan” newspaper in 1944. While working as a reporter and editor in chief within the newspaper sector, he became the owner of many newspapers and magazines. He held miscellaneous positions in the Istanbul Municipality during the Democrat Party period from 1950 until the May 27, 1960 Coup. In addition to his journalism profession, he also produced significant theater plays in the field of literary art.In this article, R. Bilginer’s life, his understanding of literary art and world of thought are assessed.
