Özet
The aim of this study is to reveal that historical novels that represent the unity of history, society and literature are not only literary texts, but also can play an active role on adoption of some human values related to the individual and society. As a matter of fact, it can be seen that historical novels, one of the Aynaci most concrete forms of fiction-real unity, are not independent of external reality. In this context, throughout the study, first of all, it will be briefly clarified the concept of socio-cultural memory and the relationship between this concept and the science of history. And then it will be talked about the factors that reveal historical novels and the effects of these factors on socio-cultural memory formation. Finally, it will be mentioned that the functional features of historical novels, which will be especially discussed under two main headings (reanimation and entertaining), can contribute at a certain level to the continuity of the concept of socio-cultural memory and to the creation of the consciousness of history-identity-belonging. On the other hand, it will be shown that the narrative elements (person, time, space, plot), forming the basis of fictional texts, play an active role in the realization of all these activities. Among the functional features of historical novels, it will be especially stated that the "reanimation " function contributes directly to the aforementioned purposes and the other functional feature "entertaining " has a meaning only within the scope of "reanimation " function. Besides, it will be emphasized that the data related to historical reality in such novels where historical facts become the material of fiction, should be handled more carefully and within a sense of responsibility by novelist.
