"Tıp Öykücülüğü" Üzerine

Author(s): Hasan Erbay / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: Special/2017

Medicine is a discipline with its own rules and manner of operation. Literature is one of the dozens of kinds of art. The common point of both fields is that they touch human stories from within life. Human stories in the field of health are about the processes in which a person lives, may live or is able to live. With the definition of medical story, it is narrative which are written by medical staffs, especially physicians. Medical narratives are fictitious narratives connected with medical realities, interpreting the health environment from the perspective of a physician or health care provider. Such is the primary concern of the works in the literary concerns. The medical narratiation is a field with a limited number of examples in both Turkish literature and world literature. Due to the diversity of medical education models in recent years, there is a growing interest in the relationship of medicine with literature and social sciences. Both in terms of medical education and in the context of literary and medical literacy, “Medical Narratiation” as a product of “quest of beauty” is a new and distinctive area in Turkish literature.

"Verujem u Boga i u Sudnji dan" – Hayrun Yahya i savremena kontekstualizacija apokaliptičnih hadisa

Author(s): Marko Pišev / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 1/2013

The motif of the apocalypse has fascinated mankind from the very beginnings of oral history and is present in various myths and religious traditions, finding its expression in the art of all time periods. Even today it hasn't lost its grip on human imagination. In modern Islamic contexts, the phenomenon of the apocalypse incorporates anti-western ideologies, which reflect, to a large extent the socio-cultural heritage of former anti-colonialist struggles, as well as the anti-imperialist attitudes which are present in a large number of contemporary Muslim societies. When paired with apocalyptic narratives, these notions can lead to negative essentializations of so-called "western morals and ethics", which are subsequently interpreted as a clear sign of the End times. Aside from the wider consideration of the symbolism of Islamic apocalyptic narratives, the paper will deal with a critical analysis of the visualizations of the Signs of the Last Day books by religious author Hayrun Yahya, who considers the topic of the apocalypse, as presented in the Koran and hadiths, in an affirmative light. We will attempt to puzzle out why the textual version of Signs utilizes certain quotes from the hadiths, while other, equally relevant quotes are avoided. We will rely on the so-called "interdiscursive" aspect of the enclosed quasi– documentary film, or rather, the heterogeneous elements which make up its audio-visual "text". This analysis should uncover the ideological notions behind this specific instrumentalization of scripture for the aim of religious, cultural and moral critique of contemporary (both Muslim and non-Muslim) societies; however, we will also attempt to point out the multifunctional idea – suggested to the viewing/reading audience of apocalyptic narratives – that Judgment day is near, and can come around at any moment.

"Westernization and Alienation of the State/Social Order": A Pseudo-Scientific Fairy-tale of Turkish Islamists

Author(s): Deniz Yoldas / Language(s): English / Issue: 9/2019

Idris Küçükömer (born 1925 in Giresun, dead 1987 in Istanbul) is a well-known Turkish academic, who tried to figure out the controversial character of the Left-wing movement in Turkey. His main book “The Alienation of the State/Social Order” (in Turkish: Batılılaşma ve Düzenin Yabancılaşması, Küçükömer, 2002) is the dissertation of his principal thesis about contemporary Turkey. Küçükömer is one of the academics/intellectuals who tried to figure out the principal „anomalies” of Turkey with his own perspectives. The controversial character of Kemalism and Left-wing movement of Turkey is the subject of Küçükömer’s works. He tried not only to break out the Kemalist discourse’s falsification but also to create a pseudo-scientific theoretical base for Islamist “Green Kemalist” narration. Küçükömer’s work about the nature of bureaucracy and its transformations between different social systems could be interesting for Post-Soviet countries academic circles. The contribution of the present review is that it brings a present-day perspective on Küçükömer views.

„СТРАННОСТ НА УМА“ НА ОРХАН ПАМУК – КАК Е НАПРАВЕН РОМАНЪТ (ТЕЗИСИ)

Author(s): Tsvetan RAKYOVSKI / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 1/2020

The article explores the diversity of narrative techniques in Orhan Pamuk’s novel A Strangeness in My Mind. The main idea is that the drama of a private life is told against the background of the drama of the life of Istanbul. To do this, the novel parallels the biographical ‘I’ of the main character and the historical ‘He’ of the City. This comparison provokes the idea of the novel’s close relation to the history of Istanbul and Turkey over the last fifty years. Orhan Pamuk does not spare the reader any of the specific, purely "Turkish problems" with the Kurds and Greeks, as well as the radical and conservative moods and public discontent from the 1950s to the 1980s. The narrative line is developed slowly and minutely, owing to the author's intention to authenticate real events through the perspective of fictional characters and vice versa – to romanticize cultural and purely civilizational processes in the last half century of the development of this part of the border between Europe and Asia. This is the only way to explain the presence of the problem of women's emancipation and the lack of that misunderstood "patriotism" which often prevents the depiction of purely national processes in life. This refutes the widespread opinion that A Strangeness in My Mind is a postmodern novel.

AHMET ARİF’İN “ANADOLU” ŞİİRİNİN MARKSİST ESTETİĞE GÖRE ÇÖZÜMLENMESİ

Author(s): Adem GÜRBÜZ / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 19/2020

Ahmet Arif is one of the most important poets of Diyarbakır. He has given works in a socialist realistic line and has reflected his emotions into his works with an artistic sensation. He mostly concerns with infrastructural, oppressed and exploited peoples and the difficulties of living in the Eastern part of Turkey. He is one of the most important Marxist poets in Turkey. The most important aspect that distinguishes Ahmet Arif from the other Marxists is his focus on village life and mountain life instead of tending to city life. Ahmet Arif, son of a civil servant, describes the people and his sights in his poems, but reflects this reality in a unique and aesthetic way with unusual interlocks, local expressions and melodic lines of the East. This Marxist and aesthetic aspect makes the poet my subject matter.

AYLA KUTLU’NUN ROMANLARINDAKİ İNTİHAR İZLEĞİNE DURKHEİM’CI BİR YAKLAŞIM

Author(s): Gürhan ÇOPUR / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 46/2020

Ayla Kutlu became an important author in Turkish literature after 1980 with her novels and stories. Kutlu, fictionalizes her works in a multi-layered structure by intertwining social and individual elements in her novels. Kutlu's novels focus on inner world of individuals taking part in the social events related to religion, beliefs, gender roles, economic life, customs and conventions of the community they live in. In her novels, the presented social events reflect the political and social atmosphere of Turkey, where protagonists are portrayed in their worldly pursuits. In that sense, the author, who is not indifferent to social issues and conditions of the period, makes her own interpretation of events in almost all her works, which makes them suitable for sociological and psychological analysis. In her novels, suicidal tendency of the characters, who are not able to adapt to the conditions they are depicted in, become excluded and marginalized. Emile Durkheim, who is mainly interested in the suicide phenomenon, regards society as a sociological laboratory mainly responsible for the psychological development of the individual. According to Durkheimian, suicide can be defined as an act in which social phenomena mark individual psychology. Emile Durkheim's theory of suicide is based on experienced cases, which he categorizes according to social causes as: “Egoistic suicide”, “Altruistic suicide”, and “Anomic suicide”. Among the suicide types that Durkheim has classified and distinguished according to their sociological dimensions, “Selfish suicide” cases observed in Ayla Kutlu's novels will be in the center of our study. In our analysis, the actions of the characters who commit/attempt suicide in Ayla Kutlu's “Cadı Ağacı”, “Ateş Üstünde Yürümek” “Kadın Destanı” and “Asi… Asi” novels will be examined within the framework of Emile Durkheim's suicide theory.

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum

Frequency: 1 issues / Country: Bulgaria

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum is published by Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and edited by the literary scholars of the Balkan Studies Masters and Doctoral Studies Program (Department of General, Indo-European, and Balkan Linguistics with the Faculty of Slavic Studies). This journal aims to encourage the study of Comparative Literature. The similarities and overlaps between less popular literatures and the well-researched canonical phenomena remain rather unexplored. Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum wants to give priority to such issues; to reconsider the clichéd notions of centres and peripheries, of one-way influences, temporary delays and topic deficiencies. It makes sense to seek the meaning of common affinities and trends, in other words – to look at what is positive, stimulating, and creative about the communication between literary and cultural phenomena. In fact, the Balkans are home to just a small share of the less researched literatures in the field of Comparative Literature. In Europe, we often know too little about our neighbours, unless they happen to be the French, German or British literatures.

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum expresses itself in three languages: Bulgarian, French and English. It provides new opportunities for communication between scholars of Comparative Literature with the aim of a complete, conceptual and terminological understanding of new ideas within our field of research.

HİLMİ YAVUZ ŞİİRİNDE GELENEĞİN BİR UNSURU OLARAK TÜRKÜLER

Author(s): Mehmet ÖZ / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 15/2020

When the development of literature is defined as an uninterrupted line from past to present, it is clear that a tradition is mentioned considering this aspect of the literature. At this point, the understanding that each stop on this line contains some traces of previous stops comes into prominence. Tradition is an indispensable source in terms of poets and understandings that care about the tradition, that make more or less use of it and that transfer it to the future with a new perspective by walking over those traces is a significant criterion for them. Of course, poets understanding, criticizing and rejecting tradition have existed in the history of literature at alltimes. Contrary to those who reject tradition, Hilmi Yavuz is one of the poets who gives importance to tradition and makes use of it to turn it into a significant source of his poetry. Yavuz is one of those who try to make use of the classic Turkish poetry, folk poetry and Western poetry. For this reason, various traces of the tradition can be encountered in his poems. In this article, first, the focus will be set on the tradition and the relationship between the tradition and Hilmi Yavuz, and, second, the poems of Hilmi Yavuz will be approached in terms of folk songs, one of the significant elements of the tradition.

MESNEVİLERDE UYGULANAN TEMSİL GETİRME YÖNTEMİNİN EDEBİYAT EĞİTİMİ VE ÖĞRETİMİNDE KULLANILMASI

Author(s): Meheddin İSPİR / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 19/2020

In Classical Turkish Literature, many works have been written with the form of Mathnawi poetry. In these works, different methods have been applied in the processing and presentation of the topics. One of these methods is telling a representation story in accordance with the flow of the subject. Representation means to transfer the event corresponding to a situation, reprisal, sameness. While the poet tells a story in his work, integrates this story with the topic and finds the story in accordance with the flow of the theme. In selected stories, the main purpose of the topic is observed. In the direction of its designated purpose, it is provided to advise to the reader and make them take lessons from the story. Reader's excitement is actuated and gaining new approaches is targeted. Thus, the poet tells repellent regarding the theme. Representation, as clarified to the narration of the poet it provides the fluency of the subject, removes its boredom, and makes an important contribution to the reader's understanding and learning. The reader, who identifies with the event and the hero in the story, takes the required lesson.

Muhyiddîn İbn Arabî’de Sûfî Dilin Mertebeleri

Author(s): Abdelkader Benaiza / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 1/2018

The vision of Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabî about the language through the literary framework that he put for himself, invited him to arrange the relationship between the person, language, and the effort to question the language. This is not only to clearly understand the tendency and purpose of Sufi discourse, but also to reconstruct the general structure of the problematic. The new vision of Ibn ‘Arabî is based on the question of knowledge, which he reveals during the period in which he observes the religion's relation to society. His observations are in the political and cultural aspect of the society as well as they stretch through the universal image of the poetic experience which has been firmly established with the various scriptural practices of the sufi discourse which Ibn ‘Arabî ascribes to his own circle of the place and time. But he will try to work creatively on it or being based on this idea of possibility and eternity, he will make sufi discourse resistant to this time andplace.

Peut-on vivre sans noblesse ? Le problème du « réalisme » dans le roman des XIXe-XXe siècles

Author(s): Kalin Mikhailov / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,French / Issue: 1/2020

In the Western European novel, the death of the nobleness of the soul brings to life the “social realism” characteristic of Balzac’s work. This change is signified by the transformation of the novel’s protagonist from a moral into a social individual (S. Hadzhikosev). Later, this development will logically progress into the ascension of the antihero and conclude with the “cynical realism” (“réalisme cynique”), preached by authors like Frédéric Beigbeder. Reflecting on several major novels written in the 19th and 20th centuries, this article strives to answer the principal question of whether the novelist could take another realistic path, and tries to imagine what this path would look like.

Sevim Ak Öykülerindeki Deyimler Üzerine Bir İnceleme

Author(s): Sevgen Özbaşı / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 1/2020

Culture and vocabulary are among the fundamental elements of the identity of a language. The culture reflects itself in the nature of the words, and therefore in the language. The changes in the vocabulary of a language display themselves in the culture in return. An investigation into these reflections can yield valuable insights regarding changes in a language over time as well as the syntactic features of a language and cultural values. Vocabulary of a language encompasses many linguistic elements such as proverbs, idioms, reduplications. These elements reveal themselves most vividly in spoken and written cultural productions. Analyzing these lexical units in literary works written both for children and adults may allow us identify the level and structure of the language, the use of lexical elements, and cultural values. To this end, this particular study aims to examine the idioms employed in the stories by Sevim Ak as well as analyze their semantic values for the text. For the analyses of the lexical elements, idioms were specifically chosen because they are widely used both in daily life and other areas and they suggest clues for linguistic and cultural elements. This study is a descriptive study in which 19 stories by Sevim Ak and idioms used in these stories were found. The findings revealed that the author utilized idioms to a great extent, therefore, contributed to its originality and semantic richness. Moreover, they were found to be useful in developing children's vocabulary knowledge and enhance their conceptual understanding.

Textual Hybridity in Orhan Pamukʼs The Black Book

Author(s): Cristina Stan / Language(s): English / Issue: 7/2017

The aim of this article is to explore the way memory and identity intertwine and are reflected by textual hybridity in one of Orhan Pamuk’s most acclaimed writings, The Black Book. As an admirer of great writers such as Borges or Calvino, who redefined and innovated traditional narrative discourses and styles, Pamuk also chooses to experiment, break fictional confinements and go beyond established patterns. The Nobel winner succeeds in creating a well-crafted intertextual network that teems with all sorts of playful allusions, rewritings, references to and evocations of Islamic texts, Turkish literature, Oriental allegories and Western literature. Configuring one‘s identity and coming to terms with memory both find a unique and intriguing expression in a labyrinthine universe.
