Abouth Dante In Turkish

One of the answers to the question: with whom we stretch our intellectual horizons towards the west is Dante. Since the 1980's we have come across, first, with his name and his life in articles and in printed materials about Turkish Literature. After the 1990's, however, little pieces of translated passages from Dante can be seen on the printed papers. During the Republican Period many books were published and Dante began to be a source and an influence on the Turkish writers. In Turkish authors' works, mostly in the writings of Halide Edip Adı¬var, Yakup Kadri Karaosmanoğlu, Nihal Adsız, Orhan Pamuk, Elif Şafak and Tahsin Yücel, the traces and influence of Dante's Divine Comedy and its motifs are discerned
