– “Hello” to two more of our masters who are featured on our cover with Öner Yağcı’s competent reviews.
Our first master was Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı, whose real name was Musa Cevat Şakir and also known as Halicarnassus Fisherman (17 April 1890-13 October 1973).
It is his love for the “Anatolian civilization” that he has imposed on the world with his novels and stories about sea people, his essays and studies about ancient Anatolia. His claim that Greek civilization was “not the pioneer of Anatolian civilization, but its follower” was victorious years after his death, and today it has been proven in the scientific world that Anatolian civilization existed long before Greek civilization.
The witness that what the Fisherman of Halikarnas wrote, who has about 100 translations other than the History of Herodotus, is a poem of humanity, is Nâzım Hikmet, who said, “Cevat Şakir is a greater poet than all of us.” We commemorate the Fisherman of Halicarnassus with respect and longing, in the words of Şadan Gökovalı: “How happy is the Fisherman who has Anatolia;/ How happy is Anatolia that has its Fisherman.”
Our other master is who started a poetry storm with his 20 poems in I Worn Out the Shackles of Longing, which was first published in 1968, especially with the line “Your love did not abandon me”; He wrote that we live and will live; It became a flood of enthusiasm in rallies, a source of resistance in cells, and a song of freedom in prisons; He caught the grain of our country’s enlightened struggle and defended the poetry of both today and tomorrow; “I am an oppressed and poor poet of my people. “It is a great honor to be like this,” said an immortal whom we remember with respect and longing. Ahmed Arif (23 April 1923 / 2 June 1991).
