Three Stories Three Forms of Existence: Self/Other and Society in Cemil Kavukçu

Journal Title: Söylem Filoloji Dergisi - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

Cemil Kavukçu, one of the most important names of Turkish storytelling after 1980, generally focuses on the daily problems while establishing his stories. Some parts of the stories shaped around daily routines are suitable for expanding their meaning areas. The first three stories that constitute the chapter "Kalan" of the book "Düşkaçıran" show a similar feature and widen the framework of ordinary issues they deal with, with the philosophical depth that is open to interpretation. There is a line which moves from plural to single, from society to self in the stories of "İki Nokta Üst Üste", "Doç", "İkizler". This study will be focused on the transformation process of Fatih who is the main character of all three stories and the conflict of self, other and society which reveals in this transformation process. The state of isolation in the process will be evaluated around the time and space phenomena with the arguments of Ortega y Gasset in his book Man and People.
