ORIGIN OF THE TERM “BARBARIAN”

Year 2018, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 18 - 29, 15.01.2018

Abstract

The concept of “foreigner” in Chinese had always been ambiguous in its patterns and substantial semantic connotations. No matter how multitudinous and substantial they used to be, in the vast corpus of Western literature, they were matched with the single term “barbarian" for a long time. Regardless of the unique connotations of each Chinese term, the whole idea of “Chinese foreigner” was constricted to a dichotomy on the civilized-barbarian fault line. This paper argues the basic idea of the term "barbarian".

“Barbar” Kavramının Kökeni

Year 2018, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 18 - 29, 15.01.2018

Abstract

Çin dilinde yabancı kavramı, semantik çağrışım ve desenleriyle
çok yönlü ve katmanlıdır. Buna karşın batı dillerinde yazılan eserlerin
oluşturduğu zengin literatür içinde Çince terimler çoğunlukla
"barbar" ile karşılanmıştır. Bunun sonucu olarak Çince terimlerin asıl
anlamları göz ardı edilmiş ve Çin'in geleneksel yabancı anlayışı,
batının uygar-barbar ikiliğine indirgenmiştir. Bu yazıda "barbarlık"
mefhumu ele alınmaktadır.
