Humanism has been an abiding tradition in Turkish culture from the
earliest times until the present day. Before settling in Anatolia and conversion to islam , Turks had already acquired humanistic attitudes as a result
of the vicissitudes they experienced in long periods of exodus and brief
sojourns - -changes of locale, shifting cultural orientation, new religious
affiliations, warfare against many nations and communities, struggle for
survival in the face of natural disasters -ali of which created a sense of life's
impermaneney as well as the eoneept of the human element withstanding
the ravages of a hostile world. Contact with diverse peoples gave the Turks
a faculty for easy intercourse based on latitudinarian views. Cataclysmic
social and cultural changes instilled in them a sense of confidence in the
human value rather than reliance on institutions.
