National Literature, the groundwork was prepared with the spread of the idea of nationalism after the Tanzimat period and especially II. It is the understanding of literature that developed with the Turkism movement, which was the official policy of the Ottoman administration with the declaration of the Constitutional Era. Considering the development process of nationalism before its transformation into Turkish nationalism, it is seen that this situation is directly related to the political and social events experienced by the Ottoman State. The existence of state administrators who put the survival of the state above everything else and adopted the understanding of 'state forever' shows that 'Ottoman nationalism' always existed in the Ottoman Empire.The issue is the change in nationalism mentality. In this work, ten academicians from various universities come together to examine the development of nationalism in our literary history, which has continued since the Tanzimat period and reflected in the works in its most intense form between 1911-1923.
