Abstract




















This study examines the influence of the
Balkan Wars on the formation of Turkish nationalism through examples from the
youth poems of Nazım Hikmet. The traces of the traumas created by the spatial
and cultural consequences of the Balkan Wars on the Turkish intellectuals of
the postwar period have been tried to be interpreted through literary works. In
this context, inferences were made through quotations from Nazım Hikmet’s poems
written between 1913 and 1930.

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Balkan Savaşları’nın Nazım
Hikmet’in gençlik şiirlerinden örneklerle Türk milliyetçiliğinin oluşumuna

izleri edebi eserler üzerinden yorumlanmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda, Nazım
Hikmet'in 1913-1930 yılları arasında yazdığı şiirlerinden alıntılar yaparak
çıkarımlar yapılmıştır.
