Traces of national independence in the works of Umgulsum Sadigzade and Amin Abid Gultakin

Abstract

At the beginning of the XX century, when we talk about independence movement poetry, works of Ali Bay Huseynzada, Umgulsum, A.Sahhat, A.Shaiq, M.Hadi, A.Javad, A.Mu-znib, A.Yusif, J.Jabbarli, A.Jannati, A.Abid, legionnaires, and others have specific importance although in general, the characteristic quality and main line of this period was fighting verbally against foreigners. The poetry of this period developed in an idea-oriented way. Examples of poetry, mainly, came to the fore with the superiority of ideas and movement rather than artistic features. Although the works dedicated to the promotion of great ideals were not particularly distinguished in terms of structure, they differed greatly in terms of absolute content perfection. The chanting joy of national freedom was very strong here, and the hate against the occupation became even more heated. This can also be seen in the works of the authors we mentioned. Thus, the poetic examples were coming a little closer to the national spirit, they were breathing life into the spirit. In the article, the poems of Umgulsum Sadigzade and Amin Abid Gultakin, who have a unique place in the independence movement of the XX century, are compared, and the poems of other liberty poets who have similar parallels are referred to, where appropriate, and the independence movement is analyzed.
