Summary/Abstract: In this study, the book of Armenian priest Kevork V. Terzibaşyan which was written in 1928, titled the Sample or Fuzuli Commentary from the Mystical Poem of the Orient was examined. It is valuable in terms of being the first and only in this genre where Fuzuli’s life, works and philosophical world are comprehensively examined. In such an important work written by Terzibaşyan, the author also wrote a section titled “Selam Mustafa Kemal Pasha”. For this reason, this text, which is the subject of this study, is evaluated in terms of history and literature. Unfortunately, the work of Terzibaşyan, written in Western Armenian, has not yet been translated into Turkish. In the study, firstly, the life of Terzibaşyan and its importance in terms of Turkish language and literature was focused on. Then, the content of the section about Mustafa Kemal Pasha was evaluated. In this part, the language used by the priest Terzibaşyan, through his style and words, the perspective of the Ottoman Empire and the Republican period is tried to be understood.
