萨巴哈丁·阿里（Sabahattin Ali，1907-1948） 土耳其小说家。从师范学校毕业后，萨巴哈丁·阿里于1928年去往德国留学。留学期间，他接触到马克思主义著作和德国革命运动。回国后任德语教师，并从事文学活动。初期作品受德国浪漫主义文学的影响，后因结识了希克梅特等作家，逐渐转向现实主义。1933年，由于写了一首讽刺总统的诗，被监禁十四个月。他在狱中与农民接触，写下了许多反映农民生活的现实主义小说。第二次世界大战初期，他发表了长篇小说《我们心中的魔鬼》。因揭露了为德国法西斯效劳的文人的丑恶面目，书被焚毁，直到战后还被列为禁书。第二次世界大战后，萨巴哈丁·阿里创办幽默杂志，发表政论、寓言、讽刺诗，鞭挞出卖祖国的反动派，因而再度被捕入狱。获释后被迫脱离写作，靠当搬运工糊口。后逃往国外，在过境时被暗杀。
