A Cognitive Poetic Approach to Lina Kohen Albukrek's Poem "Hanukkah"
Journal Title: Söylem Filoloji Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
In this study, Lina Kohen Albukrek’s poem “Hanukkah” will be analyzed within the context of the theory of Cognitive Poetics developed by Reuven Tsur, and cultural motifs in the poem will be scrutinized. Turkish Sephardim are the Jews who were accepted by the Ottoman Empire, after they had been expelled from Spain by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand in 1492 since they had rejected to convert into Catholicism. They use a language called Ladino or Judeo-Spanish into which Turkish and Hebrew words entered. Most of them live in Istanbul and Izmir today. Lina Kohen Albukrek is also a Sephardic.
