Summary
Turkish literature of the early twentieth century continued to be under the influence of Western, especially French literature. This facilitated the pervasion of various literary movements, in particular symbolism that marked the urgent needs of society in the search for new topics and forms. Symbolists believed that music was the foundation of life and art (Fesenko, 2005). According to the statement that the symbolists extremely intensified the interest to the shell of the word, to what they called its musicality (Fesenko, 2005), caused in A.H. Tanpinar the desire to get acquainted with the outstanding musical works of Western composers. In the end of the 20s and 30s, the West continues to "export" to Turkey samples of its poetry of the XIX century, such As works of Baudelaire and Mallarme, aesthetic concepts and products of Dadaism, Surrealism and Futurism (Aizenshtein, 1968)
