Literatür Yayınları Bizim Köy Mahmut Makal - Mahmut Makal

Product description

When our village book was published in 1950, it literally caused an earthquake among wide segments of society. "when the author's ""village notes"", which he started writing as a young teacher at the age of 17, were compiled and published as a book, he attracted the wrath of the power."

because the poverty cry rising from the village was a slap in the face for those who wanted to close their ears and eyes to all kinds of adversities, and those who strive to show the villages as lush, fertile, beautiful peasant girls carrying water from clear springs.

there would be a penalty for voicing the truth that the stone age still existed in the villages, of course. "while the countryside was covered in snow and transportation was impossible, the young teacher who was trying to ""prepare his students for life"" in his village was unaware of the noise made by the book he ripped." When the snows started to melt and the roads were cleared, the first visitors to makal's were the gendarmers.

arrested.

on the contrary, our village has been translated into various languages and began to cross national borders. When the president of the period invited the author to çankaya villa, this attitude was perceived as the democratic party's concern for the problems of the village and its people.

but that didn't last long either.

first, the village institutes, which became the height target of various scribblings, were closed, and then the pressure on the teachers with the institutes started.

a systematic lynch campaign was launched against writers and intellectuals who touched on the conditions that the village and the villagers were in, which were out of date. "tahsin yücel's ""our village"" was a masterpiece in 1950." Despite the passage of half a century, the statement “1995 was also a masterpiece” is a highly accurate assessment in terms of showing that the author and his work still remain relevant.

our village is considered the first book in turkish literature based on village reality and the pioneer of sociological realism. Book title: our village author: mahmut makal publisher: literature publishing house size: 13.5x21.5 first printing year: 2008 language: turkish barcode: 9789750404443
