Özet:

"Keloğlan Tales" is one of the most important products of the Turkish world of culture and literature. In these stories the main character Keloğlan faces the struggle with the challenges. In many stories, Keloğlan’s effort to survive with his elderly mother is on a short way to provide survival resources or to become wealthy. The chain of events that he experiences often begins with his mother’s directing, disguise or expulsion from the house and ends with his mother. In this study, as an important figure of the Keloğlan Tales, the attitude of "mother" to the actions of her child was discussed in terms of "mother-child relationship and the approach of the mother to the actions of the child". This research in the imaginary nature is a quality study. The data of the study was collected with the help of document analysis, which is one of the data collection methods used in quality research. In the framework of the study, Tahir Alangu’s book Keloğlan’s Tales has scanned the stories Keloğlan and his mother together.
