Summary/Abstract: The importance of history which is a product of human actions can’t be disregarded in terms of determining, leading, structuring effect. Forgotten, pressed memory and hidden facts one day reappear and face us by using other arguments. Each historical event continues to live in our collective subconsciousness till it reappears. Society, memory and history which is involved in recollection and forgetting dialectic depend on each other. The past which is adhered to our memory meets art, a social creation and is reflected in terms of historical novels. The Sarıkamış Operation always used as the image of disaster is one of the reflections although wished to be forgotten. Sarıkamış a historical image alone takes place in both our literary and social life. Within the notional framework of our study, the relation of historical events with the social memory is examined and it has been tried to determine how Sarıkamış Operation has been reflected on the Turkish novel.
