A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF METAPHORS IN AHMET HAMDI TANPINAR’S NOVEL HUZUR AND VIRGINIA WOOLF’S NOVEL MRS. DALLOWAY

Abstract

Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar's novel Huzur and Virginia Woolf's novel Mrs. Dalloway depict the adverse consequences of the post-war period within and between societies. The novels, from diverse cultural backgrounds, portray the traumas of individuals and the characteristics of modernism. Huzur from Turkish literature and Mrs. Dalloway from English literature, apply metaphors to illustrate the atmosphere during the post-war period. Metaphors arise from experiences, and it is a way of understanding one domain through the lens of another. Metaphors are often inherent in everyday language and are often used unconsciously; whereas those found in literature are generally treated with artistic intent. As both novelists are critical of physical and psychological disorders of post-war experience, the paper elaborates on “Life is a War” conceptual metaphor inspired by Lakoff and Johnson’s metaphor index. The study focuses on a comparative analysis of conceptual and linguistic metaphors in Huzur and Mrs. Dalloway considering modernist elements in the novels.
