| description | This study investigates the origins of making an enemy through examples taken
from Turkic epics, and offered personal evaluations on the relationship between
epics and real world politics. In order to make a comprehensive evaluation, 30 epic
texts selected from different regions of the Turkic world constitute the scope of this
study. The similar features of the enemy in these epics were determined through a
structuralist analysis. However, the epics included in the present study are merely
some containing typical examples of enemy-making: the epic of Oguz Kagan, the
epic of Koroghlu (Anatolian version), Manas and Kocacas epics of Kyrgyz, the
epic of Koblan Batir of Bashkirs and the Book of Dede Korkut. By analyzing the
epics from different perspectives, the aim was to put forward a classification of
the enemies in the epic stories. It was also aimed to contribute to the knowledge
of better understanding of the causes of the conflict and the relationship between
politics and epics as well as their influences upon one another. |
