| Summary: | One of the prominent themes of Turkish literature of the 20th century adresses the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the emergence of the Republic. This largely echoes the official view of the western orientated Kemalistic government. Gradually, some writers became conscious of the vital necessity for the country to embrace its history, and started to examine their ottoman past.In Devlet Ana (1967) and in Osmancık (1983), Kemal Tahir and Tarık Buğra took as a subject the beginning of the foundation of a State by the tribes of Turkmen in the 13th and 14th centuries. Despite a marxist vision on one side and a spiritual view on the other, both of them were attached to putting emphasis on the positive aspects of the ottoman Empire’s foundation ( the defense of human values and the model of law and order) ; they both came together to stand up for the defense of a national identity. |
