This article focuses on the change in the discourses of women and ideal women, which played central roles in the Tanzimat Era, 2nd Constitutional Period, and Early Republican period in Turkey. In the article, the purpose is to deal with the change of women in education, work, family life, and daily life in these three periods in a holistic and continuity relation. For this reason, the historical sociology approach, which analyzes long-term historical and social transformations in a holistic manner without neglecting macro and micro interactions, was used in the study. Many sources from different disciplines were used in the study because the article focused on the issue of women, which is at the intersection of many disciplines. As a result of the study, it was concluded that the education of women was taken into the center because of the role of raising future generations in all three periods and a family-oriented women’s discourse was developed. In terms of the participation of women in social life, a different road map was drawn after the proclamation of the Republic, and women who practiced their professions with Western clothing became the symbol of the Republic. Although each of the three periods was similar in terms of the education and family roles of women, the Ottoman new woman, who was formulated as a good Muslim, good mother, and a good wife, evolved into a good mother, good wife, good citizen woman in the Republican Period.
