The thesis examines whether the subordination of women in society is ascribed in literary works to their supposed innate inferiority as women, or is shown to be a consequence of women's circ= cumscribed position and limited possibilities. It investigates literary interpretations of thB concept of honour and shame and the nature of female sexuality, as well as analysing the portrayals of women in their different roles % from familial and domestic to independent and r©volu= tionary0 The study illustrates the extent to which literature appears to reinforce old ideas and expectations about women, and how raeeh it tends towards 8 deeper analysis of character and behaviour. It identi= fies works which deliberately set out to increase awareness of and sensitivity to the injustices suffered by women„ and to show women in roles which enable them to gain fulfilment as individuals end indepen• dence as a group. It is apparent that the increasing participation of women in public life and thsir entry into paid employment in particular have posed a threat to the old order of female domesticity, and the fear of the disruption that this might cause in society and in the family is a recurrent theme in literature. On the other hand there are also striking portrayals of outstanding women l@aders as well as character^ isations of more ordinary women struggling to maintain their integrity*, The copyright of thi9 thssis rests with tho author« No quotation from it should be publishsd without her prior written consent and information derived from it should be acknowledgedo THE PORTRAYAL OF li/OWEN IN MODERN TURKISH LITERATURE Barbara Janet Browning Thesis submitted for the degree of Plaster of Arts The copyright of this thesis rests with the author.

There are many more friends in Durham, especially Turkish friends, with whom I had the benefit of discussing my choice of literary works and different aspects of women's position in society both in Turkey and elsewhere, and without whose assistance and interest my work would have been much more arduouse They are too numerous to name, but I must record my thanks to Judith Okely and Marie Johnson, both in the Anthropology Department in Durham, who kindly read parts of the thesis and whose constructive criticisms and comments helped to bring the thesis to its final form0 I was very fortunate in receiving a grant which enabled me to spend three weeks in Turkey in Way 1979 in order to carry out interviews and obtain access to books and obtain new publications, I know I shall never be able to repay the hospitality shown to me by Zehra and Cahit Kavcar in Ankara and Suzan and Fikri Aydin and their family in Istanbuls and I am immensely grateful to them alio I also wish to express my sincere thanks to all those people = each prominent in her or his own field = who granted me an interview and who were, without exception, most generous with their time and interest,, I am particularly grateful to Gungor Oilmen Kalyoncu whom, although he had V GLOSSARY OF TURKISH WORDS a §a lord, masters local big landowner baslik money paid by the bridegroom to the bride's family <parsa f women's outdoor overgarment gecekondu unauthorized construction set up in one night, squatter's house, shanty imam prayer leaderj religious leader kuma second wife (of two) lise high school mahalle street; quarter^ district mevlud a religious meeting held in memory of a deceased person, in which the Mevlud (poem written by Suleyraan Celebi depicting the birth of the Prophet Muhammad, sung only by special singers) is chanted namaz ritual worshipj prayer pace veil salvar baggy trousers seriat > canonical law vilayet a province governed by a vali (Definitions taken from New Redhouse Tugkish-English Dictionary Istanbul, 1974). iv once been resident in Durham, I did not meet until seeking him out at the ^ehir Tiyatrosu in Istanbul in the Spring of 1979. It was Gungor Oilmen's play Kurban which inspired me to embark on a study of the portrayal of women in Turkish literature, and which has continued to inspire me throughout, and it was delightful to have the opportunity to discuss the play at length with its creator. Finally, I should like to thank Zulkuf Aydin, who has helped me from almost the first days when I was trying to learn Turkishj he has been a constant source of support and encouragement, correcting my trans<= lations of Turkish idioms, and some of my ideas. Without him to stimulate my occasionally flagging morale I could not have brought this study to a conclusion. CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1 - THE NATURE OF THE RESEARCH The subject of this study is the position of women in Turkish society since the founding of the Turkish Republic in 1923, and the portrayal of these women in selected novels, short stories and plays of Turkish 1 authors from 1922 until today. I have taken literature as a medium through which to try to gain an insight into what the revolutionary formal changes wrought in the early years of the Republic have amounted to in practice, and what effect these changes have had on the daily domestic lives of men and women. While a study based on a severely limited number of literary works is doubly representational, its inherently representational nature can be given a more favourable interpretation, for literature can be said to "single out a pattern of experience that is sufficient• ly representative of our social structure, that recurs sufficiently often mutandis mutatis,, for people to 'need a word for it' and adopt 2 an attitude towards it." Furthermore, there has been a conscious effort by many modern authors in Turkey to educate and to influence society's attitudes through their works. Professor of Sociology, Kemal Karpat, goes so far as to say that literature in Turkey plays an instrumental part in preparing the state of mind and emotional 3 background for social evolution. <smr* 2 Literary criticism cannot, of course, be a substitute for social history, but I should like to stress the importance of taking account of the social base from which literature arises, the kinds of human situation that literature reflects, and the ways in which it reflects them,. Stories of violence and murder reported in the press all too often prove to be the eruption of underlying tensions and stress gen• erated by the contradictions and ambiguities locked within society,, Reports of such tragic events taken from real life have inspired the stories of contemporary Turkish authors such as Bekir Yildiz, Fakir 5 Baykurt and Necati Cumali.

  • Turkish Literature from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Turkish Literature
    Turkish literature From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Turkish literature By category Epic tradition Orhon Dede Korkut Köroğlu Folk tradition Folk literature Folklore Ottoman era Poetry Prose Republican era Poetry Prose V T E A page from the Dîvân-ı Fuzûlî, the collected poems of the 16th-century Azerbaijanipoet Fuzûlî. Turkish literature (Turkish: Türk edebiyatı or Türk yazını) comprises both oral compositions and written texts in the Turkish language, either in its Ottoman form or in less exclusively literary forms, such as that spoken in the Republic of Turkey today. The Ottoman Turkish language, which forms the basis of much of the written corpus, was influenced by Persian and Arabic and used the Ottoman Turkish alphabet. The history of the broader Turkic literature spans a period of nearly 1,300 years. The oldest extant records of written Turkic are the Orhon inscriptions, found in the Orhon River valley in central Mongolia and dating to the 7th century. Subsequent to this period, between the 9th and 11th centuries, there arose among the nomadic Turkic peoples of Central Asia a tradition of oral epics, such as the Book of Dede Korkut of the Oghuz Turks—the linguistic and cultural ancestors of the modern Turkish people—and the Manas epic of the Kyrgyz people. Beginning with the victory of the Seljuks at the Battle of Manzikert in the late 11th century, the Oghuz Turks began to settle in Anatolia, and in addition to the earlier oral traditions there arose a written literary tradition issuing largely—in terms of themes, genres, and styles— from Arabic and Persian literature.

  • “Kitab-I Dedem Korkut” in Turkish Folklore of the 20Th Century
    The Tale of the Epic Cycle of “Kitab-i Dedem Korkut” in Turkish Folklore of the 20th Century Tatiana A. Anikeeva Until very recent times, some tales related to the medieval epic cycle of “The Book of Dede Korkut” continued to exist on the territory of modern Turkey and the South Caucasus. These include, first of all, the tale of Bamsi Beyrek, which proceeded its further existence within the framework of a completely different, much later genre of Turkish traditional literature – the hikâye. Turkish folk narrative form called hikâye which is a special genre of Turkish folk literature. It has been existing for a long time mainly in the South of Turkey and in the Eastern Turkey since the Middle Ages. Hikâye is a prose text that includes folk songs and verses, that can be transmitted orally by story-tellers-aşiks or meddahs in coffee houses. The main peculiarity of this genre is its existence both in oral and written traditions at the same time; this genre occupies a borderline between oral and literary traditions. These are prosaic texts of novelistic or fantastic content that once were performed exclusively in oral form; sometimes they are often folklorized versions of literary plots widely known in the Middle East, or, as in the case of the tale of Bamsi Beyrek, are the part of a large epic cycle (“The Book of Dede Korkut”). These folk narratives include the stories of the prosaic version of the epic legend about Köroğlu, which has become widespread in Asia Minor and well-known in the Caucasus, the Middle East and Central Asia, as well as a number of other plots, such as “Ilbeylioğlu”, a story about Shakh-Ismail (“Şah-Ismail”), “Celali Bey ile Mehmet Bey”, “Kirmanşah”, etc.

  • 103 TURKISH LITERATURE in JAPANESE Oğuz BAYKARA*
    İ.Ü. Çeviribilim Dergisi, Sayı: 6 (2-2012) s. 103-133 I.U. Journal of Translation Studies, Issue: 6 (2-2012) p. 103-133 103 TURKISH LITERATURE IN JAPANESE Oğuz BAYKARA* Abstract This article gives an account of Turkish works translated into Japanese between 1925 and 2012. It is also an attempt to provide some answers, especially to the question concerning the reasons of the lack of interest for Turkish literature in Japan. The first part of this article sets out the theo- retical framework. The second part outlines the literary exchange between Japan and Turkey. The third part presents the data collected regarding the published Turkish literature in Japanese by surveying the authors, publishers, translators and translated works as well as scrutinizing the translation activity and the forces that triggered it. The final part evaluates the position of the translated Turkish literature in the Japanese polysystem, based on the data obtained from this research. Key Words: Polysystem Theory, Turkish Literature in Japanese, literary exchanges and relations, central/marginal positions. Özet Bu makalede 1925-2012 yılları arasında Türk edebiyatından Japonca- ya çevrilen eselerler ele alınmaktadır. Makale aynı zamanda Japonya’da Türk edebiyatına olan ilginin neden marijinal düzeyde olduğu sorusuna da yanıt aramaktadır. İlk bölümde çalışmanın kuramsal çerçevesi belirlenmiş- tir. İkinci bölüm Japonya ve Türkiye arasındaki edebi alış-verişi özetler. Üçüncü bölümde Japoncaya çevrilen Türk edebiyatı üzerinde yaptığımız araştırmalardan elde edilen veriler sunulmuştur. Veriler toplanırken sadece çevrilen eserler, yazarlar, çevirmenler ve yayınevleri değil, aynı zamanda çeviri etkinliği ve onu tetikleyen güçler de göz önünde bulundurulmuştur. Dördüncü bölümde ise elde edilen veriler temel alınarak, Japon diline ak- tarılan Türk edebiyatının Japon çoğuldizgesi içindeki konumu üzerinde bir değerlendirme yapılmaktadır.

  • Letters from Vidin: a Study of Ottoman Governmentality and Politics of Local Administration, 1864-1877
    LETTERS FROM VIDIN: A STUDY OF OTTOMAN GOVERNMENTALITY AND POLITICS OF LOCAL ADMINISTRATION, 1864-1877 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Mehmet Safa Saracoglu ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Carter Vaughn Findley, Adviser Professor Jane Hathaway ______________________ Professor Kenneth Andrien Adviser History Graduate Program Copyright by Mehmet Safa Saracoglu 2007 ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on the local administrative practices in Vidin County during 1860s and 1870s. Vidin County, as defined by the Ottoman Provincial Regulation of 1864, is the area that includes the districts of Vidin (the administrative center), ‛Adliye (modern-day Kula), Belgradcık (Belogradchik), Berkofça (Bergovitsa), İvraca (Vratsa), Rahova (Rahovo), and Lom (Lom), all of which are located in modern-day Bulgaria. My focus is mostly on the post-1864 period primarily due to the document utilized for this dissertation: the copy registers of the county administrative council in Vidin. Doing a close reading of these copy registers together with other primary and secondary sources this dissertation analyzes the politics of local administration in Vidin as a case study to understand the Ottoman governmentality in the second half of the nineteenth century. The main thesis of this study contends that the local inhabitants of Vidin effectively used the institutional framework of local administration ii in this period of transformation in order to devise strategies that served their interests. This work distances itself from an understanding of the nineteenth-century local politics as polarized between a dominating local government trying to impose unprecedented reforms designed at the imperial center on the one hand, and an oppressed but nevertheless resistant people, rebelling against the insensitive policies of the state on the other.

The approach to the theme of love was metaphorical and mystical in classical Ottoman poetry. During the period of modernisation (1839-1923), poets either rejected the theme of love altogether or abandoned Islamic aesthetics and adopted a Parnassian approach arguing that love was the expression of desire for physical beauty. A great variety of discourses on love developed during the republican period. Yahya Kemal sets the theme of love in Ottoman Istanbul and mourns the end of the relationship with the beloved who incarnates his conservative vision of national identity.
