Dans cette thèse, on soutient qu’au cours de ces décennies, il s’est produit une recrudescence de la visibilité ainsi que de l’influence de l’activité littéraire sur le monde culturel et la société turque. Mon travail vise également à déterminer les relations complexes qui peuvent exister entre la culture littéraire et la politique. Il convient de souligner que l'identité politique ayant été adoptée par les acteurs littéraires, était généralement une identité dissidente envers le système politique et social de son époque. j'ai tenté d’analyser le climat intellectuel par le biais de la littérature. De plus, ma réflexion se pose sur les raisons de l’importance du rôle des personnalités littéraires comme intellectuels dans la société turque de 1960 à 1980. Littérature, écrivains, intellectuel, culturel, politique Résumé en anglais This dissertation examines the increasing visibility of literary activities as a part of the other cultural activities between 1960 and 1980. During these two decades, there was an increasing influence of literary activities, literary production, and literary world throughout the larger parts of the Turkish society. This work also assesses the intricate relations between literary culture and politics. It will be emphasized that the political identity which was adopted by the literary actors was generally one critical of the existing political and social system. The intellectual climate will be examined via literature. I argue that men of letters, literary actors played important roles with academics and journalists through their public, intellectual identity in the social life from 1960 to the end of the 1970s. Literature, writers, intellectual, cultural, politics Boğaziçi Üniversitesi Atatürk İlke ve İnkılap Tarihi Enstitüsü’nde Doktora derecesi için Hakkı Başgüney tarafından …. da teslim edilen tezin özeti Başlık: Türkiye’de 1960 ile 1980 Yılları Arasında Yazınsal Üretim, Akımlar ve Politika Bu çalışma 1960 ile 1980 yılları arasında kültürel etkinliklerin bir parçası olarak tarif edilen dönemin yazınsal faaliyetlerinin artan görünürlüğünü ortaya koymayı hedefliyor. Bu çalışmada bu iki on yıl boyunca yazınsal etkinliklerin, yazınsal üretimin, yazınsal dünyanın etkisinin Türkiye toplumunun geniş kesimlerine ulaştığı öne sürülecektir. Bu süreç kendi içinde çeşitli akımları, eğilimleri de içeren daha etkin bir yazınsal dünyanın, akımların, kamuoyunun, pazarın şekillenmesi, yeniden kuruluşu ve genişlemesi olarak da görülebilir. Çalışma öte yandan bu dönemde yazınsal kültür ve politik pozisyonlar arasında da güçlü ve karmaşık bir ilişki olduğunu varsayıyor. Dönemin yazınsal etkinlikleri incelenerek de dönemin politik ve sosyal tarihine dair önemli bulgulara ulaşılabileceği, çünkü yazınsal etkinliklerin dönemin politik kültürüne dair oluşturucu, yansıtıcı ve genel fikir verici bir işlev kazandığı düşünülmektedir. Dönemin yazınsal aktörleri tarafından benimsenen politik kimliklerin varolmakta olan politik ve sosyal sisteme karşı muhallif ve eleştirel bir içeriğe sahip olduğu vurgulanmaktadır. Ülkede hakim olan dönemin kamusal entelektüel kimliğinin de edebiyat üzerinden incelenebileceği düşünülmektedir. 1960’dan 1970’lerin sonuna dek edebiyatçıların gazetecilerle ve akademisyenlerle beraber ülkelerinin sosyal hayatında düşünsel ve kamusal kimlikleri aracılığıyla önemli roller oynadıkları iddia edilmektedir.

I owe very special thanks for their help, guidance, patience, and unmentionably great contributions. There is no doubt that without their help, it would be impossible for me to achieve this degree. My sejour in France, at Strasbourg was very contributive, convivial and rich experience for my studies. I am very thankful to Paul Dumont for this opportunity. He shared with me his own literary archive which constitutes the core of this study. I am also thankful to Ahmet Kuyaş, whose interventions, especially in the field of Turkish cultural history made this thesis more complete than its first copy.

Dr. Abdullah ŞENGÜL Tarihî roman ve gerçeklik, tarihî romanla ilgili yapılan çalışmalarda üzerinde en çok durulan konudur. Roman, bir edebiyat türüdür. Bu göz önüne alındığında tarihi roman- tarih bilgisi karşılaştırmaları yapılarak romanın tarihten hangi noktalarda ne kadar uzaklaştığı, ne kadar tarihî gerçek olduğu, başka bir açıdan bakılacak olursa romanı yazanın tarihi ne kadar tahrip ettiği veya tarihî gerçekleri ne ölçüde aldığı gibi sorular gündeme gelmektedir. Kemal Tahir’in romanlarında tarihi, malzeme olarak kullanırken tamamen tarihî gerçekleri mi aktarmış yoksa tarihi, sadece olayların kurgusu içinde edebiyat eserinde kullanabileceği ölçülerde mi vermiştir, işte bu soru çalışmanın temel konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Kemal Tahir, diğer tarihi roman yazarlarından farklı bir yöntem izleyerek tarihi olayları aktarmıştır. Bu farklılık bu çalışmada incelenmiştir.

  • Halide Edip Adıvar Ve Son Romanı
    KİTAPLIK HALİDE EDİP ADIVAR VE SON ROMANI Ömer Ayhan Halide Edip Adıvar’ın Türk edebiya- tındaki yerinin ‘çok doğru’ belirlene- mediğini düşünüyorum. Bunun birkaç nedeni olabilir. Kadın haklarının henüz karşılık bulamadığı zamanlarda geniş bilgi birikimi ve güçlü bir kişilikle or- taya çıkışı, sonraki yıllarda Mustafa Ke- mal Atatürk ile ters düşmeyi bile göze alarak kendi bildiği yolda gitmekteki kararlılığı, onu günümüzde salt bir ya- zar imgesiyle algılamayı imkânsız kılı- yor. Halide Edip Adıvar, bir geçiş döne- mi yazarı. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun son döneminde yazmaya başlıyor. Söz gelimi Yeni Turan bir ütopya romanıdır, tıpkı Yakup Kadri Karaosmanoğlu’nun Ankara’sı gibi. Bununla birlikte, Kara- osmanoğlu bir Cumhuriyet ütopyasını dillendirirken Halide Edip kâğıt üzerin- mayla cepheye gidişi, tek partili dönem- de Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nu idealize de iktidarla ters düşmesi ve tıpkı Refik etmiş gibi görünür. Oysa belki yolun Halid Karay gibi yaşamak zorunda kal- sonuna gelindiğinin ayrımında olan dığı sürgün hayatı ve nihayet 1950’de yazarın romanında dile getirdiklerini, milletvekili olarak Meclis’e girmesi. An- pekâlâ Osmanlı İmparatorluğu başlığı- cak yazarın, bunca baskın kişiliğine ve nı atıp Türkiye Cumhuriyeti önermesi yaşadığı fırtınalı hayat rağmen eserle- olarak da okuyabiliriz. Öncül bir ütop- riyle o derece öne çıkamadığını görüyo- ya romanıdır bu hâliyle. Halide Edip ruz. Doğruya doğru, adı her dönemde Adıvar, tıpkı Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar anılan bir yazar. Bir ölçüde dışlandığı ve Kemal Tahir gibi bir çağ romancısı. 1930’lardaki durumu kestiremiyorum Bunu söylerken ne demek istiyorum? ama benim çocukluğumu ve ilk genç- liğimi yaşadığım 1970’li ve 1980’li yıl- Ülkenin siyasal, toplumsal ve elbette larda, Halide Edip kanonik bir yazardı. kültürel alanlarda, kısa sürede baş dön- Vurun Kahpeye ve Ateşten Gömlek en dürücü değişimleri yaşadığı zaman di- iyi romanları olmayabilir ama içerik liminde, kalemini bu değişimlerin olası öz itibarıyla Kanon’a tastamam uygun sonuçlarını göz önünde tutarak kulla- düşmüş eserlerdir.

  • A Reframing of Metin Erksan's Time to Love
    Auteur and Style in National Cinema: A Reframing of Metin Erksan's Time to Love Murat Akser University of Ulster, [email protected] Volume 3.1 (2013) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2013.57 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract This essay will hunt down and classify the concept of the national as a discourse in Turkish cinema that has been constructed back in 1965, by the film critics, by filmmakers and finally by today’s theoretical standards. So the questions we will be constantly asking throughout the essay can be: Is what can be called part of national film culture and identity? Is defining a film part of national heritage a modernist act that is also related to theories of nationalism? Is what makes a film national a stylistic application of a particular genre (such as melodrama)? Does the allure of the film come from the construction of a hero-cult after a director deemed to be national?

  • The Grave Goods of Roman Hierapolis
    THE GRAVE GOODS OF ROMAN HIERAPOLIS AN ANALYSIS OF THE FINDS FROM FOUR MULTIPLE BURIAL TOMBS Hallvard Indgjerd Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History University of Oslo This thesis is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts June 2014 The Grave Goods of Roman Hierapolis ABSTRACT The Hellenistic and Roman city of Hierapolis in Phrygia, South-Western Asia Minor, boasts one of the largest necropoleis known from the Roman world. While the grave monuments have seen long-lasting interest, few funerary contexts have been subject to excavation and publication. The present study analyses the artefact finds from four tombs, investigating the context of grave gifts and funerary practices with focus on the Roman imperial period. It considers to what extent the finds influence and reflect varying identities of Hierapolitan individuals over time. Combined, the tombs use cover more than 1500 years, paralleling the life-span of the city itself. Although the material is far too small to give a conclusive view of funerary assem- blages in Hierapolis, the attempted close study and contextual integration of the objects does yield some results with implications for further studies of funerary contexts on the site and in the wider region. The use of standard grave goods items, such as unguentaria, lamps and coins, is found to peak in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD. Clay unguentaria were used alongside glass ones more than a century longer than what is usually seen outside of Asia Minor, and this period saw the development of new forms, partially resembling Hellenistic types. Some burials did not include any grave gifts, and none were extraordinarily rich, pointing towards a standardised, minimalistic set of funerary objects.
