                            <p>Bu çalışma, ahşapseverliğin evrensel ölçekte tanıtılması gereken kültürlerarası bir tema olmasından ötürü, dünyadaki herkesin yaşam kalitesini en üst düzeye çıkarmak için hemen her şeyle ilişkilendirilebilen insan merkezli bir tutum olarak ahşapseverlik kavramını açıklamaya çalışmıştır. Bu bağlamda, ahşapseverlik, sürekli gelişen ahşap bilimi ve teknolojisi yordamıyla ahşabı mühim bir malzeme ve seçkin bir varlık olarak öne çıkaran ahşapsever yaklaşımla bütünleşik bariz bir olgudur ve doğaya değer vererek ve mümkün olduğunca ahşabın en iyi şekilde kullanılmasını sağlayarak tarih boyunca yaşam kalitesini yükseltmek suretiyle insanların daha iyi yaşamasına yardımcı olmuştur ve ahşabın kolay bulunabilirliği sayesinde çevreyi koruyarak sürdürülebilir kalkınmayı teşvik etmiştir. Ahşapseverliğin soyut ve somut bir bütünlükle çevrelenmiş hayali düşünce ve gerçek koşulların bileşiminden oluşan ve insana değer vermeyi temsil eden ahşap ile hayatın güzelliğini fark eden ve tutkulu bir ahşap sevgisiyle kendi farkındalığına ulaşan insanların ortak bir tutumu olduğu ve günlük işlerin kolaylaştırılması için envaiçeşit ürün tiplemesiyle ahşabın kullanılması suretiyle insan hayatının değerini sürekli olarak yükselten ve ona anlam katan bir olgu olduğu yadsınamaz bir gerçektir. Buna göre, humanist bakış açısıyla desteklenen ahşapseverlik kavramı, doğanın yansıması olan ahşap aracılığıyla insana ve çevreye değer verme düşüncesiyle belirginleşen evrensel bir olguyu ifade etmektedir. Sonuç olarak, yaşamın mükemmel bir çevre olarak bütünlüğü, günlük hayatın akışında insanı ve doğayı bir arada ele alan çevreci bir bakış açısını temsil eden ahşapseverlik kavramıyla yapılandırılıp açıklığa kavuşturulmaktadır.</p></trans-abstract>

In this regard, woodloverness is a remarkable phenomenon that is in integrity with the woodlover approach, which puts in a noticeable position to wood as a significant material and priceless entity, accompanied by the constant progress of wood science and technology, promotes sustainable development by preserving the environment in terms of availability of wood and raises the value of human life by valuing nature and making the best use of wood whenever feasible, and hence helps people live better lives throughout history. It is an undeniable truth that woodloverness is an attitude common to those who recognize life&#039;s beauty and come to their own awareness with a passionate love of wood, which is a composite of imaginary thought and actual circumstance encircled by an abstract and concrete integrity, serving as a representation of human worth, and it is a phenomenon that consistently increases the value of human life and gives it meaning thanks to the numerous ways to use wood to make daily tasks easier. Accordingly, the concept of woodloverness supported by the humanistic perspective refers to a universal phenomenon that is distinguished by the idea of appreciating people and the environment through the medium of wood, which is nature&#039;s reflection. As a result, the wholeness of life as the perfect environment in which to live is structured and clarified by the concept of woodloverness, which represents an environmentalist viewpoint that takes into account people and nature collectively in the course of everyday life.</p></abstract>
