A Lecture of Deconstruction of Burhan Sönmez's Labiren -An Application of A Contemporary Text in Class
Journal Title: Söylem Filoloji Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Jacques Derrida developed a new approach of lecture of the texts in his publications entitled “Of Grammatology” and “Writing and difference” in 1967. In this approach Derrida, with the deconstruction technic based upon the concepts of “trace” and “differance” invites on one hand the lecturer to construct the text, and on the other the author to delete his/her signature. In that context, the work of Burhan Sönmez consists of the interwoven text as a labyrinth of the traces, which are opened to the history of the society and the identity of the individual. For the researcher who is in the pursuit of these traces of the hierarchical oppositions like forgetting/remembering, life/death, past/future, play the role of an identity, which turns to be its own, and the other’s construction reflected in the mirror. This labyrinth is woven of the content and texts interlaced of which it becomes more difficult to get out or to which the new ones are added. It is intended to prepare a didactic course content with the approach of deconstruction in the context of literature education by wandering in the labyrinths of the contemporary text and deconstructing it and undoing it out of those hierarchical oppositions.
