Biography
Turkish poet, novelist, playwright, and Islamist ideologue, also known simply by his initials NFK. He was noticed by the French philosopher Henri Bergson, who later became his teacher.
Appropriating his anti-semitic ideas from Europe, Kısakürek regarded Jews as the corrupting element within Western civilization, and described them as the originator of Marxism and capitalism. He held them responsible for the early conflicts between Muslims and the decline of the Ottoman Empire.
Necip Fazıl Kısakürek died on 25 May 1983 in his house at Erenköy after an illness that "lasted long but did not impair his intellectual activity and writing."
