AB  - Wood is a natural and organic material obtained from trees grown through sustainable forestry activities as a unique reflection of nature with magnificent beauties, and it is an important object that contributes to the progress of civilization by supporting change and development with its inherent nature that reinforces the harmony between nature and people with its unique existential content that has existed throughout history. Wood, which is widely used due to its material properties suitable for manufacturing a wide range of products due to its easy-to-process fibrous and porous texture that constitutes its essence, is a valuable entity with its inclusive and affirmative nature that enables the empathic tendency that supports intercultural interaction. In terms of wood's usability as a material and an entity for the purpose of meeting the various needs and satisfying the requirements that arise in the ordinary flow of life, the woodlover approach, which plays a leading role in reflecting the versatility and functionality of wood to life with the accompaniment of wood science and technology, forms the basis of the woodloverness phenomenon and symbolizes the universality of woodloverness. In this context, it has become an inevitable necessity to conceptualize the phenomenon of woodloverness, which manifests itself in the axis of the woodlover approach that centers on wood, which is used in the same or similar way in all cultures all over the world, by examining it in depth from a holistic perspective. Accordingly, in this study, the theoretical structure of the concept of woodloverness, based on the previous studies of Usta (2019), has been tried to be presented in detail by revealing all its components in the holistic manner of thematic issues that are essential to be discussed in order to make theorization possible.

N2  - Ahşap, muhteşem güzelliklere sahip doğanın eşsiz bir yansıması olarak sürdürülebilir ormancılık faaliyetleriyle yetiştirilen ağaçlardan temin edilen doğal ve organik bir malzeme olup tarih boyunca var olagelen kendine özgü varlıksal muhtevasıyla doğa-insan uyumunu pekiştiren içselliğiyle değişim ve gelişimi desteklemek suretiyle uygarlığın ilerlemesine katkı sağlayan önemli bir nesnedir. Özünü teşkil eden kolay işlenebilir lifli ve gözenekli dokusuna atfen geniş bir yelpazede ürün imal etmeye elverişli malzemesel özellikleriyle yaygın şekilde kullanılan ahşap, kültürlerarası etkileşimi destekleyen empatik eğilime imkan tanıyan kapsayıcı ve olumlayıcı doğasıyla değerli bir varlıktır. Ahşabın hayatın olağan akışında ortaya çıkan envaiçeşit ihtiyacın karşılanması ve gereksinimin giderilmesi maksadıyla bir malzeme ve bir varlık hüviyetiyle kullanılabilirliği bakımından, ahşap bilimi ve teknolojisi eşliğinde ahşabın çok yönlülüğü ve işlevselliği ile hayata aksettirilmesinde öncü rol oynayan ahşapsever yaklaşım, ahşapla bütünleşik yaşamın ana fikrine altlık yaparken, ahşapseverlik olgusunun temelini oluşturur ve ahşapseverliğin evrenselliğini simgeler. Bu bağlamda, dünyanın her yerinde tüm kültürlerde aynı veya benzer şekilde kullanılan ahşabı merkeze alan ahşapsever yaklaşım ekseninde kendini gösteren ahşapseverlik olgusunun bütünsel bir bakış açısıyla bakılarak derinlemesine irdelenip kavramsallaştırılması artık kaçınılmaz bir gereklilik haline gelmiştir. Buna göre, bu çalışmada, ahşapseverlik kavramının kuramsal yapısı, Usta (2019)'nın önceki çalışmalarına temellenerek, kuramsallaştırmayı olanaklı kılmak üzere konuşulması elzem olan tematik konular bütüncüllüğünde, tüm bileşenleriyle birlikte gözler önüne serilerek etraflıca takdim edilmeye çalışılmıştır.
