Summary/Abstract: In this paper, the whole argument lies in discussing a close relationship between history and literature on the generic basis especially due to a long path of theoretical and philosophical coherence. From Aristotle to Michael Foucault and Lyotard the generic coherence of hybrid discursive formations dictated perplexity of defining the very idiosyncratic composition of them. Thus, the main part of this paper deals with the philosophy of history in terms of its reflecting on literary writings. We may say that for a better understanding of certain historical developments, it would be undoubtedly worth to scan the rich repository of diverse experiences recorded sensitively by creative writers.
