Burhani-Hagigat (Azerbaijani: Bürhani-Həqiqət, برهان حقیقت) was an Azerbaijani literary, socio-political magazine published in Yerevan in 1917. It was the first Azerbaijani-language publication published in Yerevan since the closure of the magazine Lek-Lek. It was published twice a month on eight pages from January 14 [O.S. January 1] to July 12 [O.S. June 29], 1917. Nine issues were issued in total. The name consists of the Arabic words burhan ('proof') and hagigat ('truth').[1]
Publication
[edit]The first issue of Burhani-Hagigat was published on January 14 [O.S. January 1] 1917 under the direction and editorship of the poet and publicist Ali Mahzun Rahimov and the representative of the Yerevan intelligentsia's publishing house Hasan Mirzazade Aliyev.[1]
