Name, Last Name : Yiğitalp Ertem Signature : iii ABSTRACT REPRESENTATIONS OF THE INTELLECTUALS IN 1980s TURKISH CINEMA Ertem, Yiğitalp M.S., Department of Media and Cultural Studies Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Necmi Erdoğan September 2014, 256 pages This study aims to analyze the representations of the intellectual identity in 1980s Turkish Cinema in the context of the socio-political transformation that took place during this period. Employing a thematic analysis based on the common and distinctive themes regarding the representations of intellectual figure, this study examines the mental states and political orientations of the protagonists in a group of films that are exclusively about the lives of intellectual characters. What this study offers is that the cinematic representations of intellectual in the 1980s are charged with decisive depoliticization and emotional/intellectual depression with only exceptional cases where intellectuals take critical stances to the military coup and socio-political transformation that took place afterwards. Keywords: intellectual, turkish cinema, the 1980s in turkey, thematic analysis, representation iv ÖZ 1980’LER TÜRKİYE SİNEMASINDA ENTELEKTÜELLERİN TEMSİLLERİ Ertem, Yiğitalp Yüksek Lisans, Medya ve Kültürel Çalışmalar Tez Yöneticisi: Doç. Dr. Necmi Erdoğan Eylül 2014, 256 sayfa Bu çalışma, 1980’ler Türkiye sinemasındaki entelektüel karakterlerin temsillerini, dönemin toplumsal ve siyasi dönüşümleri bağlamında incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Entelektüel figürüne dair ortak ve ayırt edici temalar üzerine kurulan bir tematik analiz vasıtasıyla, bu çalışma, özellikle entelektüel karakterlerin hayatını konu eden bir grup filmdeki ana karakterlerin ruh hallerini ve politik yönelimlerini incelemektedir. Çalışmanın iddiası, 1980’lerdeki entelektüel temsillerinin, askeri darbeye ve sonrasındaki sosyo- politik dönüşüme eleştirel yaklaşım geliştiren istisnai birkaç örnek dışında, yoğun bir depolitizasyon ve duygusal/düşünsel bunalım ile yüklü olduklarıdır. Anahtar kelimeler: entelektüel, türkiye sineması, türkiye’de 1980’ler, tematik analiz, temsil v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am sincerely grateful to my advisor, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Necmi Erdoğan and exceptional scholars of my department Prof. Dr. Raşit Kaya and Barış Çakmur for their gentle criticisms, inspiring teachings and enriching contributions. I would like to present my special gratefulness to Dr. Özgür Avcı for his invaluable supervision, critique, guidance and moral support from the very beginning of this study until its finalization.

  • 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.

Prof. Dr. Mehmet Kalpaklı January 2018 In the early 17th-century Ottoman Empire, a series of sociocultural, administrative, political, and economic changes were underway that left their mark on how the learned and cultural elite viewed the empire and themselves. Though contemporary sources reflect these shifts in many ways , this period’s rich corpus of invective verse , centering around the poet Nefʿī , has been understudied as a historical source. This dissertation rectifies this neglect by examining this invective corpus as a locus of rivalries and enmities revealing how those involved agonistically defined and were defined by their others, thus necessarily defining themselves in the process. Observing this process of definition and self-definition in the light of contemporary historical developments and sources, the dissertation examines invectives produced against both patrons ( i.e., vertical invective) and fellow poet/clients ( i.e., horizontal invective) in such a way as to demonstrate how the ferocity of the period’s invective verse, and reactions thereto, laid bare how Ottoman elites’ imaginary of themselves was in fact a marginalizing construct.

C. ANKARA ÜNİVERSİTESİ SOSYAL BİLİMLER ENSTİTÜSÜ RADYO – TELEVİZYON VE SİNEMA ANABİLİM DALI HALİT REFİĞ SİNEMASINDA KADIN (1960/61 – 2000) Yüksek Lisans Tezi Bilge Emin Ankara-2003 ÖNSÖZ Atatürk dönemiyle birlikte Türkiye'de sanayileşme süreci başlar. Böylece, 1950 yılından itibaren Türkiye'de sanayileşme geliştikçe, çalışan kadınların oranı da artar. Türkiye'de, kadın iş gücü açısından en büyük gelişme, hizmet sektöründe özellikle kamu yönetimi alanında gözlenir. Bütün bu olumlu gelişmelere rağmen, tarihsel geleneklerin etkisiyle, Türk kadını sürekli ikinci plana itilmiştir. Cumhuriyet dönemiyle birlikte kadınlara birtakım hak ve özgürlükler sağlanır. Bu sırada kadın haklarının yaygınlaşmasında kentlerdeki ve kırsal yörelerdeki kadınlar arasında da farklar oluşmuştur. Kadınların Türk toplumundaki konumu, Türk sinemacılar tarafından da sürekli işlenen bir konu olmuştur. Sinema dünyasında ise Halit Refiğ, filmlerinin çoğunda kadını merkeze yerleştiren bir yönetmendir. Bu çalışma, Halit Refiğ'in 1960/61-2000 yılları arasında çektiği filmlerde, olabildiğince toplumsal verilere dayanarak, kadının hangi toplumsal yapı içinde nasıl ele alındığını ve Halit Refiğ'in kadın sorunlarını nasıl gördüğünü de ortaya koymak amacını taşır. Böylelikle hem bir dönem Türk kadınının toplumsal yaşantısı, hem de bunun beyaz perdeye aktarımı irdelenir. Çalışmanın çeşitli aşamalarında birçok kişinin yardımlarını gördüm. Bilgi, belge ve video kasetlerle beni destekleyen ve yardımlarını esirgemeyen Ali KARADOĞAN’a ve Yrd. Doç. Dr. Ruken ÖZTÜRK’e; tezime katkıda bulunan Prof. Dr. Nilgün ABİSEL’e teşekkür ederim.

    Republic of Turkey Ministry of Culture and Tourism Oğlak Yayınları II come to my voice sesime gel turkey 2010, 35mm, 90’, colour director Hüseyin Karabey script Hüseyin Karabey production Emre Yeksan, Asi Film, Elmadağ Cad. 6/3 Şişli 34373 Istanbul T +90 212 225 3944 [email protected] In a snowy Kurdish mountain village in eastern Turkey, Berfé, an old woman, and Jiyan, her young granddaughter, are troubled when the only man of the household, Temo, the son of one and father of the other, is arrested and taken into custody by the local gendarmerie. The commanding officer has received word that the villagers are hiding guns. It is announced that all the men of the village will be kept in custody until their families submit and hand over the guns they are hiding. But the problem is there are no guns, at least to the knowledge of these two blameless women. Despairing and on their own, Berfé and Jiyan are faced with a long journey in search of a gun that they can exchange for their beloved Temo. But how can their innocence and naivety find a way out in a system that threatens, eventually, to drag them into the sullied world of an interminable conflict? Hüseyin Karabey (1970) has been making films since 1996. He graduated from the Film and Television Department of Marmara University in 2001. His involvement in the democracy movement in the 90s and his background as a documentarian have determined the style and the content of his subsequent film work. His first feature film My Marlon and Brando was selected for the Rotterdam Film Festival and had its North American premiere at Tribeca, where it won Hüseyin Karabey the Best Director award.
