One of the most important works of the great Tatar poet Gabdulla Tuqaj (27th April, 1886, to 15th April, 1913) 1 is said to be the poem "Şyrale (The Forest-Demon) ", written in 1907. There is no doubt about the literaryimportance of this work, although many "enlightened "Tatars disparage it as a mere nursery-tale 2 ;but it is likewise important for folklore and literary history
