Participant of the I Turkological Congress: Kasym Tynystanov

Abstract

Kyrgyz literature is a rich literature that has been developed by great poets, writers, linguists, educators, intellectuals, even though it is formed later than the other Turkish people’s literature (at the beginning of the XX century). One of the first figures grown in this literature is Kasym Tynystanov. His story, “At the edge of the lake with Maryam”, is considered as the first work of the Kyrgyz written literature.
Kasym Tynystanov with the wave of October Revolution as one of the most distinguished intellectuals of his people, wrote his name in history, was one of the personalities who formed the modern Kyrgyz language and literature, making great contributions to the national literature, press, enlightenment of the people, linguistics.
Kasym Tynystanov has done a lot of work in field of education as well as is a brave representative of his people and the Turkish nation as one of the founders of the Kyrgyz culture, the press, and linguistics. He is an intellectual who has always led his people and has stimulated youth to study and eventually sacrificed his life for the people. In spite of all these sacrifices, unfortunately, during the Stalin era in 1930, Kasym Tynystanov’s services were not evaluated that deserved, but in 1938 he was shot for several baseless political accusations.
