Hollywood Alla Turca: a History of Popular Cinema HOLLYWOOD ALLA TURCA: A HISTORY OF POPULAR CINEMA IN TURKEY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Savaş Arslan, M.F.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Ronald Green, Adviser Professor Stephen Melville _________________________ Professor John Davidson Adviser History of Art Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study deals with the history of popular cinema in Turkey, called Yeşilçam. Yeşilçam’s dawn, rise, and fall extended over four decades, from 1950 to 1990. Yeşilçam is discussed through four notions: Turkification, hayal, melodramatic modality, and özenti. While cinema started in Turkey by interweaving two screens, the traditional and the modern, Yeşilçam had a dream (hayal) of making films similar to Western cinemas, especially Hollywood. But the presence, combined with the technologically belated arrival, of this Western medium in a non-Western land brought about its own particularities and peculiarities, reflected by Turkification (practices of translation, transformation, and restitution). Yeşilçam represents a transitory state enmeshed with the drama of nation building and characterized by an aggressive attempt to unify multiplicities. The dubbing of films, both foreign and domestic, led to Turkification, a process of making films ideologically “proper” to Turkey. Yeşilçam also “Turkified” the Western cinematic language through remakes and adaptations, producing not only a non-realistic, postsynchronized filmmaking, but also an active (mis)translation and transformation, thus inventing a popular cultural synthesis, a cinematic amalgamation of the West and the East. ii In the meeting of a two-dimensional Eastern scopic regime with a three- dimensional Western one, özenti (imitation or pretension) indicates a perpetual movement from Eastern self to Western other in Yeşilçam’s desire to be like the other, i.e., Western popular cinemas. But a return to original self is impossible in this movement, and through özenti, Yeşilçam continuously transformed itself. Thus özenti suggests a rhizomatic existence, not being one nor being the other but being in a continual movement, in between two cultures. Yeşilçam’s “melodramatic modality” deals with a particular history of filmmaking that combined realistic film language with non-realistic and anti-illusionistic traditions in its various genre films. Specific analyses of these films address the changes in both the socioeconomic and the cultural milieu, and the cinematic practices and their consumption. Through the introduction of these four notions, this study not only attempts to revise the Turkish histories on popular cinema in Turkey, but also aims to introduce the English-speaking audience to this under-explored field. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank my adviser, Ron Green, for the intellectual support, encouragement, and enthusiasm which made this thesis possible, and for his patience in correcting both my stylistic and scientific errors. I thank Stephen Melville and John Davidson for their comments and support for the realization of this thesis. I also wish to thank my wife Wendy and all my family members who supported me during this process which is full of obstacles. This study would not have been realized without the support and grants of The Ohio State University’s various departments and branches. iv VITA March 8, 1973 Born – Manisa, Turkey 1995 B.A. Political Science, Bilkent Univ, Turkey 1997 M.F.A.

  • Acting the Nation
    Acting the Nation Women on the Stage and in the Audience of Theatre in the Late Ottoman Empire and Early Turkish Republic Cora Skylstad TYR 4590 – Master’s thesis in Turkish Studies Area Studies of Asia, the Middle East and Africa Department of Cultural Studies and Oriental Languages UNIVERSITY OF OSLO October 2010 ii iii Abstract In the first decades of the 20th century, the public position of actresses underwent a radical transformation in Turkey. While the acting profession had long been commonly regarded as unsuitable for Muslim women and had been monopolized by women belonging to the non- Muslim minorities, in the 1920s the Muslim actress was not only legitimized but in fact embraced by the state as a model for Turkish women. In the works of Turkish and Ottoman theatre history, the emergence of Muslim actresses has been given some attention, but it has not been studied from a critical perspective inspired by theoretical questions. Moreover, the process of legitimization of Muslim women as theatre audience, which took place prior to the legitimization of the actresses, has been ignored. The present thesis seeks to develop a better understanding of these developments by approaching them as part of social and political history, while drawing inspiration from an interdisciplinary field of scholarship on gender and theatre. The time period studied begins with the late era of the Ottoman Empire and ends with the early years of the Turkish Republic, covering a time span of more than fifty years. In order to capture the complexities of the subject, a wide array of written sources, including memoirs, interviews, theatre reviews, books and a theatre play, are included in the analysis.

  • Martian Crater Morphology
    ANALYSIS OF THE DEPTH-DIAMETER RELATIONSHIP OF MARTIAN CRATERS A Capstone Experience Thesis Presented by Jared Howenstine Completion Date: May 2006 Approved By: Professor M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Professor Christopher Condit, Geology Professor Judith Young, Astronomy Abstract Title: Analysis of the Depth-Diameter Relationship of Martian Craters Author: Jared Howenstine, Astronomy Approved By: Judith Young, Astronomy Approved By: M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Approved By: Christopher Condit, Geology CE Type: Departmental Honors Project Using a gridded version of maritan topography with the computer program Gridview, this project studied the depth-diameter relationship of martian impact craters. The work encompasses 361 profiles of impacts with diameters larger than 15 kilometers and is a continuation of work that was started at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas under the guidance of Dr. Walter S. Keifer. Using the most ‘pristine,’ or deepest craters in the data a depth-diameter relationship was determined: d = 0.610D 0.327 , where d is the depth of the crater and D is the diameter of the crater, both in kilometers. This relationship can then be used to estimate the theoretical depth of any impact radius, and therefore can be used to estimate the pristine shape of the crater. With a depth-diameter ratio for a particular crater, the measured depth can then be compared to this theoretical value and an estimate of the amount of material within the crater, or fill, can then be calculated. The data includes 140 named impact craters, 3 basins, and 218 other impacts. The named data encompasses all named impact structures of greater than 100 kilometers in diameter.

  • Turkish Cinema
    Turkish cinema Nezih Erdoğan Deniz Göktürk The first years Cinema, as a Western form of visual expression and entertainment, did not encounter resistance in Turkey, a country culturally and geographically bridging East and West. It perfectly represented the ambivalent attitudes of the national / cultural identity under construction. On one hand, cinema came as a sign of modernization / Westernization, not only for the images of the Westbeing projected onto the screen, but also for the condi- tions of its reception. Cinematography was a technological innovation imported from the West and the ritual of going to the movies became an important part of the modern urban experience. On the other hand, cinema offered possibilities for the production of a ‘national discourse’. Many of the early feature films reflect the ‘birth of a nation’ or resis- tance to the Allied Forces during World War I. The audience was already familiar with the apparatus (theatre, screen, figures, music and sound, light and shadow), which bore some resemblance to the traditional Turkish shadowplay Karagöz, one of the most popular entertainment forms of the past. Ayse Osmanoğlu, the daughter of Sultan Abdülhamid II, remembers that the French illusionist of the palace used to go to France once a year and return with some novelties to entertain the palace population; a film projector throwing lights and shadows on a wall was the most exciting of these spectacles. The first public exhibition took place in 1896 or 1897 in the Sponeck pub, which was frequented by non-Muslim minorities (namely Levantines), as well as Turkish intellectuals infatuated with the Western civilization in Pera (today Beyoğlu), a district in the European part of Istanbul known for its cosmopolitan character.
