Abstract:

The Turkish people who have lived within the borders of this country that hosted different Turkish states for ages, have continued their existence in modern days. Iran Turks, who kept alive all the aspects, especially the language, could not use writing in some periods. This situation provided a chance for oral culture to survive, mostly thanks to the efforts of minstrels. In festivals called Toy, they recite both poems and epics, or told folk tales, so they ensured the passing of cultural elements to contemporary day. The adventures of heroes and chain of events of these stories effect not only the audience, but also the minstrels-storytellers. This effect is concentrated with the creator’s approach to a place about a hero in the stories and this concentration becomes the starting point of poetic creation. In this article we will work on two minstrels who come from Tabriz minstrel neighborhood, their reasons about creating poems when they reached the places about heroes in "Shah Abbas and Gülgez" and "Han Çoban and Sara" stories and the relationship between these poems and the stories researched by the point of view of place and creation context and changing of place to artistic creation in which circumstances will be mentioned.
