Feminism in Azerbaijani and Armenian Newspapers (1900s–1910s): A Visual-Political Perspective
Advertisement
What did feminism look like in the early 20th-century South Caucasus?
This lecture looks at how Armenian and Azerbaijani satirical newspapers (Khatabala and Molla Nasreddin) showed women, gender roles, and power through drawings and irony. We’ll explore how these papers sometimes questioned traditional roles and gave space —openly or secretly—to feminist ideas. Through these powerful and often humorous images, we’ll see how visual media became a way to speak about women’s issues and social change in a difficult time.
