Abstract

The Ottoman Empire, in the course of the crisis that it experienced in the 19th century, became a government within a state that would not escape the attention of European states as a result of military innovations as well as investments made in the name of education, training and social transformations. Learning and teaching the Ottoman language, which was the dominant language of the Ottoman geography, has been the subject of many sources, depending on the fact that the European states are perceived primarily as a commercial market, but also due to the scientific enrichment of cultural life.These sources taken over the Ottoman language provide an opportunity to determine the morphologic examination of sentence structure and words in terms of scientific process and historical process of Turkish language more clearly. Up to these sources it was possible to follow the development of Turkish language through written sources. However, these sources also make it easier for us to see the position of the Turkish language, in other words, against other languages ??in the centuries, by taking the language directly under the spotlight. Teaching of these new works in educational institutions has provided the foundation for Turkish language to enter into a national process separately from Arabic and Persian languages ??over time. This new process has brought a simpler and more nationalist stance by removing Arabic and Persian for the Turkish language and rearranging the grammar rules. Accordingly, at the beginning of the 20th century, it emerged as a “National Literature” in case of necessity. Here we will try to touch on the resources that have been instrumental in starting this process, how we have pioneered the successive works on the writer's short biography and the contents that he took into account when writing the work.
