123 XХXV Кононовские чтения Turkic state, the idea of Turan in the novel has a different implementation. Defending the ideas of decentralization and Turkism, Halide Edip does not set hукself the task of achieving the unification of the Turks. It is important for her to single out the Turks as the main element of the Ottoman Empire [2: 419]. So she advocates the idea of “Turkish Turkism” (Türkiye Türkçülüğü). The reflection of the idea of “Turkish Turkism”, as well as the idea of decentralization, is the New Turan party, while the New Ottomans party is the spokesman for the ideas of Ottomanism and centralization. When analyzing the novel, it becomes obvious that Halide Edip Adıvar “supports” the “New Turan” party and it is with its ideas that she connects the construction of a “new” Turkey. Moreover, the ideas of “New Turan” embodied in the novel are not the point of view of one specific political trend, it is a synthesis of the ideas of several trends, mainly the views of Prince Sabaheddin [6: 305] and Ziya Gökalp [5: 133]. When considering the above two parties in the novel, the author of the study concludes that the Party of Unity and Progress, which came to power after the Young Turkish revolution, can serve as a prototype for the New Ottomans and New Turan parties. At the same time, the New Ottomans party is the policy of the Ittihadists, which was really pursued at that moment, and the New Turan party is the political course that the Unity and Progress Party should take in order to save the country. “Turkish Turkism”, decentralization, equal rights of women with men, universal education, including religious education, freedom of madhhabs — these are the postulates on the basis of which the state should revive, but revive not as the Ottoman Empire, but as a “new” Turkey. It is this path, put forward in the novel by the New Turan party, and is the path of saving the country, according to Halide Edip. Bibliography: 1. Enginün, I.
