Yusuf Kaplan and “Road Map” continues to push the doors of ideas with his unique style. In this section, Yusuf Kaplan talks about Turkish novels and writers. Yusuf Kaplan mainly said the following; We actually see with our example how literature, art and therefore the spiritual world play a key role in the construction of both the present and the future of a society or how journeys, literary journeys and artistic journeys that cannot be nourished by the roots of the soul actually end in the destruction of a society. Ömer Seyfettin is a very important man in Turkish stories, a very important man in Turkish literature. Our friends asked how he is, is he a good storyteller? I said he is a good storyteller. In other words, I do not use it in a critical sense, on the contrary, I use it to do justice to it. In fact, he has drawn the most perfect examples of the Turkish character, starting with the world of children, of the human types in Turkey, that is, the self-sacrificing, loyal, patriotic human types produced by this society, the Muslim society, he has drawn their characters, characteristics and drawn them, but the interesting thing is that Ömer Seyfettin could not hold on in any way in the newly established world, in the newly established order. On the contrary, you will build a new world, a new nation, you will build a new nation, you will build a new culture, you will build a new literature, in other words, one of the founding figures of this should be Ömer Seyfettin. Why was Ömer Seyfettin left out? Because Ömer Seyfettin was nourished by the roots of these lands, he was nourished by the spiritual roots, therefore the journey that was undertaken was a journey to dry out the spiritual roots of this society. In a way, the novel was written, it was written with the accumulation and spirit of the constitutional monarchy period… There is a tradition that is nourished by the roots, flowing gurglingly. A tradition that will water us… From here, we are actually trying to discover undiscovered continents… Tanpınar, Yahya Kemal are actually very important types, characters. Cemil Meriç is very ruthless. He is really a very broad man. There is no field he has not touched and he is a man who has produced first-class works incredibly… We need to think about the real murder that was committed here. In a way, on the one hand, there is actually a fake nation construction through a fake, invented literature. Has that been achieved? It was partially successful, in other words, it is not possible for this to be successful forever. A tree without roots does not bear fruit. It is rootless, because it is unstable. It has no support, in other words, its foundations are not solid, therefore its collapse is inevitable. Therefore, literature did not emerge from there, novelists, great novelists did not emerge from there, and there was no follow-up. For example, one of the great novelists was Kemal Tahir. What happened to Kemal Tahir? He was cursed. Kemal Tahir voiced the children of these lands, the voices of his children, he became their voice, he tried to understand and explain that spirit in a way, through the Ottoman Empire, in other words, he redefined the Ottoman Empire in a magnificent way, and the man was excluded, in fact, not excluded, he was excommunicated! For example, there is a second novelist, and that is Tarık Buğra. Nobody has ever seen Tarık Buğra. Tarık Buğra cried, he wept bitterly. He was a completely alone man. The man was Don Quixote fighting against windmills all by himself… The rest is in our video… Come, Let's Walk Together... #mymecra​ #roadmap​ #yusufkaplan​ ????
