Cautions on Folk Literature Works in the Literature of the period of Natural Struggle

Summary/Abstract: In the period of the National Struggle that started with the 1918 Mondros Armistice Agreement and continued until the end of 1922, the Turkish nation dives into a life and death struggle. We lose the first world war we have joined with the Alliance nations. Our lands are occupied by the Mondros Armistice Agreement signed on 30 October 1918 and the Sevres Agreement dated 10 August 1920. 1919 and 1920 constitute preparation phase of our National Struggle. The struggles and battles that led us to win this life - and - death battle are important battles such as İnönü, Sakarya and the Great Offensive that took place in 1921 and 1922. This period is also a remarkable period from a literary perspective. Nationalism, populism and the simplification of language in the period which started with the proclamation of the 2nd constitutional monarchy intensify within this period.. Researches in the West also allow the intellectuals of the period to turn their interest into this field. The Hungarian folklore scholar, came to Istanbul and became one of the reasons that increased interest. In the year 1913, Ziya Gökalp, Rıza Tevfik and Köprülüzâde Mehmet Fuat’s researches and writings in the field of folk literature emerge.
