Kürtlerin Gelenek ve Görenekleri

Bazîdî, a versatile scholar, has done many studies in the fields of language, folklore, history, belief and literature. This shows its versatile feature. For this reason, Bazîdî can be called the "first Kurdish sociologist". Because he deserved this title due to the subjects he discussed in his work titled 'Adat û Rusûmatnameʼê Tewayifê Ekradiye. With this work and his other prose works, Bazîdî is considered the father of prose in the history of Kurdish literature. Because when his works are examined in terms of form, it is seen that he is the first prose writer and storyteller in the history of Kurdish literature. Because, on the one hand, he wrote stories based on historical events, and on the other hand, he compiled the stories told among the public. In addition, he rearranged the masnavis in prose form. The story Mem û Zîn, which he wrote on this subject, can be an example. He became the first historian to write in Kurdish with his work titled Tewarîxî Cedîdî Kurdistan, which he wrote in Kurdish, and was also the first translator. Because Tewarîxî prepared the Kurdish translation of Şerefname under the name Qedîmî Kurdistan. In short, Bazîdî is a scholar specialized in many fields. On the other hand, these works are sources for many disciplines and fields, and some of them are sources for many different researches at the same time. For example, the work Cami'eyê Risaleyan û Öykütan, which consists of a few treatises on the Kurdish language, grammar, tribes and 40 stories, is a source for both literature and grammar and Kurdish history. It is not only an essay that examines the history of the people of the region, including the history of other peoples of the region, and especially by emphasizing the founding and formation process of Iraq, but also a challenge to the paradigm mentioned above.

Rojava, Southern Kurdistan, Kirkuk, Jazira, east of the Euphrates, oil and water fields, Kurds' demands for autonomy occupy the agenda not only of the region but also of the world, and the Kurdish Question, which concerns four countries, is especially affected by foreigners. This study, prepared at a time when it started to evolve into a Kurdistan Problem again with the influence of interventions, also provides important data to analyze the past weaknesses of Kurdish society and politics and a historical experience that should never be ignored. Undoubtedly, the most interesting experience will be to witness that what is talked about today was also talked about a hundred years ago and was discussed at diplomatic tables for years.
