Abstract: Novel emerges as the most important text type of modernization era in Turkish literature. The importance of the novel also arises from the its emergence as the narration of the modern times all over the world. At the same time, opportunities provided by the genre suits the Ottoman intelligentsia?s objectives of modernization, westernization, prevention from corraption and also forming a new ethos. As a general statement novel begins to build its presence as means of presenting ideal lives and moralization. Additionally it is seen that frequently mentioned criticisms about early Turkish novel mostly concentrates on the fields of imitation, being influenced, unsuitability for reality and interventions of author-narrator. All these efforts of definition and criticisms about the formation of the genre are basically based on the question of the sources of the Turkish novel. There have been many studies on the subject and in these studies both western and traditional sources of the genre are stated and interpreted. In this study şıntibahı is chosen as the basic text considering the author?s position and the text's literariness and in the light of similarities expressed by Güzin Dino and Ahmet Hamdi Tanp?nar, the sources of Ottoman-Turkish novel have been tried to state and interpret based on şıntibahı.
