Rıza Tevfik Bölükbaşı



Rıza Tevfik (Rıza Tevfik Bölükbaşı after the 1934 Law in Turkey on Family Names) was a Turkish philosopher, poet, politician and a community leader (for some members among the Bektashi community) of late 19th century and early 20th century. A polyglot and a multi-faceted personality, and despite that his involvement in politics was for the main part of a part-time nature, he is most remembered in Turkey for being one of the four signatories of the Treaty of Sevres, for which reason he was included in 1923 among the 150 persona non grata of Turkey, and he spent twenty years in exile till he could return to Turkey in 1943, after Atatürk's death.
