ABSTRACT
Recently the investigators and men of other professions of Turkish
peoples have often come together. They either go down the depth
of history or investigate the realities of the present day. In
such period it must be considered as a fault to forget, not to
remember the men who took an active part in this.
One of the men whose services are forgotten is Amin Abed.
It is so pity that even in his 100th anniversary the name of this
selfless intellectual was not remembered, his birthday was not
celebrated anywhere. Amin Abed devoted all of his life to the
investigation of all-Turkish literature. He has a lot of works
about it.
24 years after Amin Abed's death who became a victim of
the Soviet reaction in 1938 he was fully exonerated. But in reality
that was a physical rehabilitation. After Stalin's death all the
shortcomings that were caused by socialism were written on his
name. Blood that was shed, cruelties that were acted in order
to save the communist party and the socialism system that was
created by it were written on only one person's name.
In 1956 most of the men who were arrested and shot during
1920-1940 in USSR were exonerated. Most of hundreds of persons
who were arrested during those years could not bear hard condition
and died. Those who were alive were not able to struggle against
the shortcomings of the society.
Although the rehabilitation was declared in words, the
damage to the arrested persons and those who were shot were not
paid. The publishing of the works of writers, poets and investigators
were not allowed. Only selected works of a group of authors were
published.
Although the Soviet ideologists who were afraid of a strong
stimulus that could arouse the national consciousness rehabilitated
Amin Abed they did not allow publishing his articles and poems
again.
