Summary/Abstract: The history of the revolution of the Republic of Turkey is a lesson that conveys to generations the war of independence of the Turkish nation, our national heroes. The aim of this study is to examine the literary products contained in the 8th-grade history of revolution and Kemalism textbook taught by the Ministry of National Education in our country in the 2020-2021 academic year. Document analysis from qualitative research methods was used in the study. The data were analyzed by content analysis. As a result of the study, the textbook is quite rich in literary works, but the book mostly uses the same types of literacies. On the other hand, it has been found that genres such as songs and folk songs that will feed students emotionally have never been used, and literary genres such as memoirs, stories, and novels have not been adequately used.
