İVAN TURGENEV’İN “RÜYA” ADLI ÖYKÜSÜNÜN MİTOKRİTİK ANALİZİ YÖNTEMİ

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Ivan Turgenyev’in “Rüya” adlı kısa öyküsünün mitolojik temellerini mitokritik analiz yöntemiyle incelemektedir. Birincil amaç, anlatıdaki mitolojik motiflerin, simgelerin, mitolojik öğelerin ve arketiplerin yapısını tanımlayıp çözümleyerek anlatının derin içeriğini aydınlatmaktır. Analiz, anlatı içinde belirli sembolik ağırlık taşıyan, yinelenen imgeler, sahneler veya mitolojik kökenli motifler olan mitolojik öğelerin tanımlanması ve yorumlanmasına odaklanacaktır. Ayrıca, çalışma, Carl Jung’un kuramlaştırdığı gibi, kolektif bilinçdışı ile rezonansa giren evrensel semboller ve ilkel imgeler olarak anlaşılan arketiplerin varlığını ve işlevini inceleyecektir. Bu çalışma, mitolojik unsurları inceleyerek, yüzeysel okumalarla anlaşılamayan daha derin anlam katmanlarını ortaya çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu yaklaşım, Turgenyev’in edebi sanatının ve mitin kalıcı gücüyle ilişkisinin daha incelikli bir şekilde anlaşılmasına katkıda bulunacaktır.

The Mythocriticism Method of The Analysis in Ivan Turgenev's Story "The Dream"

Abstract

This study investigates the mythological underpinnings of Ivan Turgenev's short story 'The Dream' through the lens of mythocritical analysis. The primary objective is to elucidate the profound content of the narrative by identifying and analyzing the constellation of mythological motifs, symbols, mythologems, and archetypes embedded within its structure. The analysis will focus on the identification and interpretation of mythologems – recurring images, scenes, or motifs of mythological origin that carry specific symbolic weight within the narrative. Moreover, the study will examine the presence and function of archetypes, understood as universal symbols and primordial images that resonate with the collective unconscious, as theorized by Carl Jung. By dissecting these mythological elements, this study aims to unveil deeper layers of meaning in 'The Dream' that may remain obscured by superficial readings. This approach will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of Turgenev's literary artistry and its engagement with the enduring power of myth.
