	Azerbaijani literature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Azerbaijani literature, in keeping with the great age of the Azerbaijani civilization, reaches back into antiquity, with some of its greatest works of literature being written as early as the 6th century.
		In the 15th century, Azerbaijani literature was dominated by Black Sheep Turkmen and White Sheep Turkmen (Qara Qoyunlu and Aq Qoyunlu) dynasties who ruled in parts of Iran.
		The country's literature in the 20th century was profoundly influenced by political events that took place early in the 19th century — the two Russo-Persian wars that resulted in Azerbaijan being divided into two separate nations, fracturing what had before been a coherent national identity.

		An anti-colonial approach in studying the rise and fall of south Azerbaijani Democratic Republic is particularly important in that the colonial power relations leading to the downfall of the Republic are still as active today as they were half a century ago.
		Adopting an orthodox class-based approach, the leftist literature, in general, views the aspirations of Azerbaijani people for self-determination through the class lens, seeking to subordinate various racial, national, social, cultural and linguistic issues to issues of class and relations of economics (see for example Nabdel 1973).
		The nationalistic and socio-political demands of Azerbaijani people were legitimate demands rooted in their culture and history. Although the ADP leaders failed to lead the struggle to victory, obtainment of autonomy and unification with northern Azerbaijan have, nonetheless, remained an ideal for millions of Azeris in both sides of the river Araz.

	Editorial: Contemporary Literature
		Now Azerbaijanis are beginning to write about their own sufferings in the context of their own history-not the Soviet interpretation of it.
		Fortunately, Azerbaijanis are not dumping writers simply because they happened to have lived during that era; except for when a specific writer produced only propaganda that served the state.
		It will be a great day for Azerbaijani writers, for Azerbaijan as a nation, and for humanity as a whole, when deserving works from contemporary Azerbaijani pens are also included in the volumes that make up the world's greatest and most cherished collection of literary works.

		In that sense, literature plays an even grander role and makes us conscious that we are not alone as members of the human race.
		In such times, we need literature more than ever to remind us that, in truth, there are far more similarities, than differences, that we share with others who live beyond our borders, and it is friendship and respect for each other that will make the world a safer place.
		In the case of Azerbaijan's literature, we think there is much to gain by carefully studying what was going on in the minds of those who were confined for decades in the seclusion of what we called "the Iron Curtain".
