There aare totally 19 texts in the book. 8of the texts that are going to be examined are fictional texts and 11 of them arepragmatic texts. In the study, the textuality criteria suggested by İşeri (2010) wasused as source. Only in 1 of the 19 texts (8 fictional and 11 pragmatic) (Memoriesand Documents about Ataturk) there is one to one compatibility with the determinedtextuality criteria. The texts being fictional or pragmatic did not effect their compatibility / incompatibility with textuality criteria.
