KATHERINE ANNE PORTER’S FOUR “FAILURES”: THEIR ILLUSIONS AND DEFECTS

Year 2008, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 175 - 184, 01.03.2008

Abstract

After reviewing the American South in the first half of the twentieth century, we try to understand Katherine Anne Porter as a Southern woman writer. Carrying a Southern character, she produced short stories dealing with the negative side of life. She peoples her (four) stories with characters who are unaware of their illusions and defects and shows their results. On the other hand, it is easier to bar the negations than solve them, according to her. For this, she advises us to criticize ourselves. When we find a wrong, we should be courageous to eliminate it.  

KATHERİNE ANNE PORTER’IN DÖRT “BAŞARISIZ KARAKTERİ”: YANLIŞ GÖRÜŞLERİ, KUSUR VE EKSİKLİKLERİ

Year 2008, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 175 - 184, 01.03.2008

Abstract

Yirminci yüzyılın ilk yarısında Amerikan Güney’ine kısaca göz attıktan sonra, Katherine Anne Porter’ı Güneyli kadın bir yazar olarak anlamaya çalıştık. Güneyli özelliklerini taşıdığı için yazar, yaşamın olumsuz tarafını irdeleyen öyküler üretmiştir. Öykülerinde kendi yanlış görüşleri, kusur ve eksikliklerinin farkında olmayan karakterler vardır ve yazar bunların sonuçlarını gösterir. Öte yandan, ona göre, olumsuzlukları önlemek onları çözmekten daha kolaydır. Bunun için, kendimizi eleştirmemizi, bir yanlış bulduğumuzda onu yok etme konusunda cesaretli olmamızı önerir.
