Abstract
Some individuals dedicate their lives to a single area of endeavour, while others pursue a multifaceted approach. Those who excel in their chosen fields often leave a positive legacy, influencing others through their work, ideas and students. Conversely, those who fail to achieve similar success may leave behind a legacy of negative associations due to envy, greed or personal interests. Those who follow in their footsteps often draw inspiration from their predecessors' deeds, evaluating them according to their own perspectives. Ahmet Cevdet Pasha is one of the individuals who occupied numerous roles during the Tanzimat period of the 19th century, leaving a legacy of positive contributions to the fields of science, thought, law, education, history, and politics.
