Abstract

In this article, Âşık Sümmanî's approach to history and his approach to historical events are considered. Sümmanî is an important representative of the minstrel literature tradition. Sümmani's period is a devastating crisis in which different and important historical events are experienced. Sümmanî, by reflecting the historical events of the previous period and the poems of the period he was in, offered the opportunity for future generations to understand these events. The historical reflections in his poems are important in terms of being a remembrance figure in terms of the common memory of the society.
