Abstract

In this study, we tried to examine how the subjects of motherland and nation were discussed in the works of homeland poets, Namık Kemal and Mağcan Cumabayev, two important figures of Anayurt and Atayurt. In their works ,our poets tried to pull their people out of a difficult situationin and tried to show the remedy of the disease. In an environment in which the Ottoman Empire underwent perhaps the most difficult times in its history, and different movements emerged in different parts of the world, the intellectuals of the Tanzimat period brought up new developments and brought artifacts suitable for the era. Namık Kemal, who is an intellectual of the Tanzimat period, has emphasized some concepts as a personage who has written in many kinds of literature and benefited from different types and events in order to announce these concepts to the reader. These concepts are generally issues such as homeland, nation, love, death, inability of reaching love and convergence. However, the love in Kemal’s concept generally expresses his love for the motherland and often leaves behind the love for the beloved. The main topic of Magzhan Jumabaev’s work also was the Motherland, he told the Turks as a whole in his works. In his poems he wrote throughout his life, our author tried to arouse the national consciousness, to invite the public to education and science, to save them from illiteracy.
