Are novels written by Kurdish novelists in Arabic, Persian and Turkish considered Kurdish products in terms of content?

Abstract

We cannot deny the fact that any independent nation is a product of a group of writers. These writers, through their works, have asked and later obtained a nation and an identity. Also, there are many factors which impede having a nation with an identity including, most importantly, the political and economic ones. Kurdish nation is a good example in this case. Kurds (in all parts: Turkey, Syria, Iran and Iraq even though the ones in Iraq have a semi-autonomous rule), as they have no full spectrum of political and economic independency, have been attempting so hard to reach to the world in many ways especially through literature. The Kurdish writers, even though when are forced to write in other dominant languages, they still refer to the Kurdish culture in terms of the content.

Kürt romancılar tarafından Arapça, Farsça ve Türkçe kaleme alınan romanlar içerik bakımından Kürtçe eserler olarak kabul edilir mi?

Abstract

Herhangi bir bağımsız ulusun bir grup yazarların bir ürünü olduğu gerçeği inkar edilemez. Bu yazarlar, eserleri vasıtasıyla istedi ve daha sonra bir ulus ve bir kimlik aldılar. Ayrıca, en önemlisi, siyasi ve ekonomik olanları da dahil olmak üzere bir kimlikle bir ulus olmayı engelleyen birçok faktör vardır. Kürt ulusu, bu durumda iyi bir örnektir. Kürtler (her bölgede: Türkiye, Suriye, İran ve Irak'ta olanları yarı özerk bir yönetim olsa bile Kuzey Irak) siyasi ve ekonomik bağımsızlık gibi hiçbiri tam spektrum olduğu gibi, birçok yolla olduğu gibi özellikle edebiyat yoluyla dünyaya ulaşması çok zor teşebbüs edilmiştir. Kürt yazarlar, hatta başka bir egemen dilde yazmak zorunda olduğunda, hala içerik açısından Kürt kültürüne bakmaktadırlar.

26. their own country and state. And their country which is Kurdistan is divided between four
27. states. Each state has a different case. The literary products of those Kurdish writers who have written their works in other
28. languages is because of some political, cultural and educational reasons. Their literary
29. products can be considered Kurdish literature. Therefore, the literary works are written in
30. some other foreign languages (and not Kurdish) but they imply themes related to Kurdish life
31. In these cases their works serve the Kurdish nation and all its aspects rather than those
32. official and dominant languages which they have written in.
