Until today a monograph or a detailed examination on the works of Cevat Kâzim who has produced works in almost all literary genre within the history of Turkish literature have not been conducted. He is of a military background. For this reason, he has personally witnessed the occupation of Istanbul and the war of independence and he has manifested what he has witnessed during these periods in his memoirs that he published with the title towards Martyrdom. Cevat Kâzim did not suffice with that and again he published what he witnessed during the War of Independence with an epos that he published with the title 'inkilabin siiri' exactly ten years prior to Nazim Hikmet's Epic of Turkish Revolution. This work is exactly an epos of the Turkish Revolution both with the sub-titles which refer to the names of the fronts and live moments of the war described. Again in addition to this poetry book, Cevat Kazim has other poetry books entitled 'Gönül yaslarim', 'Günahlarim' and 'Içli saz'. When we examine the poetic approach in Cevat Kazim's poems, we can classify these poems under two groups.". First Edition. Özege 8461.
