Analiysis of Turkish tales compiled of Kunos by Propp method

One of the building blocks of a nation is undoubtedly tales. The source of these products, which do not have a national feature, is unclear. However, regardless of the source, societies adapted these products to their own cultural characteristics and they were separated by names such as Turkish tales, Iranian tales, German tales and Russian tales. İt is very sad that tales are one of the types that have lost our narrative tradition today. In the first quarter of the 21st century, it is our duty to revive this species, which has gradually lost its value with the isolation of the individual and to transfer our tales, which are an important part of our culture, from generation to generation, and to adopt our values, traditions, customs and customs. It is a fact that it is important to examine the tales in terms of structure in order to identify the common aspects of the tales which are accepted as one of the common values of the nations and to benefit the studies made with this aspect. Using the structuralist approach of Vladimir Propp, one of the classification studies on tales, the tales in Ignacz Kúnos' Ottoman-Turkish Folk Literature Compilation (Oszmán-Török Népköltészet Gyűjteménye) will be examined with the Propp method. The aim is to decode the tales in the book with the Propp method. The first part in the anonymous folk literature what the tale is one of, tales studies conducted in Turkey, Ignacz Kúnos's life in the second part, works and contributions to Turkish folk literature, contains information about Propp method in the third section. In the fourth section, episodes and analysis of 98 tales in two volumes will be given. In the fifth chapter, an evaluation of these tales will be made, compiled in 1887 and 1889. Following the bibliography, the translation of the preface of Ignacz Kúnos' Ottoman-Turkish Folk Literature Compilation (Oszmán-Török Népköltészet Gyűjteménye) by Hungarian to Turkish will be given as an additional supplement by Emine ULUTAN. Keywords: Tale, Propp method, Ignacz Kúnos' compilations.
