Summary
The Turkmens, who have been living in Iraq for thousands of years, have a rich literature. The new literary movements that started after the proclamation of the republic in Iraq, and the publication of the Turkmen Brotherhood Club, which was opened in Baghdad in 1960, especially after the massacre of the Turkmen in 1959, and the publication of the journal Kardeslik were an important turning point for the Iraqi Turkmen cultural history. Erbil, who started to publish his first poems in the magazine Kardeslik in Baghdad and the newspaper Yurt, became a well-known poet in Iraq, in the Turkish World -Turkey, Azerbaijan, Cyprus and Bulgaria- and among Turkmens. The fact that Esat Erbil, who is the leading representative of Iraqi Turkmen poetry, has not been examined in detail so far has created an important justification for this study. Information about Esat Erbil's life and poetry was obtained as a result of the interview made with him. Interviews were made with those who knew the poet closely, apart from written sources, and it was tried to be explained in detail within the framework of the notes taken
