Reading Architecture, City and Space in Latife Tekin's Novels Through Henri Lefebvre

Abstract

In her novels, Latife Tekin describes a journey that migrates from the village to the city and tries to hold on in the city, by positioning the human (body/language), his/her communication, and the spaces he/she produces at its center. The reflections of a social event such as migration on the city and space are deeply involved in Tekin's novels. Dealing with the author's novels selected in this study through Henri Lefebvre's definitions of everyday life and the production of space can make these reflections more perceivable and meaningful. By looking at Latife Tekin's novels through Lefebvre, this article aims to capture the spatial production processes through the changing/transforming social production practices and the organization of everyday life. By considering the factors that shape the production practices and the organization of everyday life in the rural and the urban, the spaces produced by the individual, have been interpreted in the context of the spatial counterparts stated by Lefebvre (spaces of representations, representations of spaces, and spatial practices). The aim of the study is to capture clues about the production of space, which directly integrates with time and the human, and try to offer expansions in the way architects deal with the production process of space and where they should position themselves in this process.
