MYTHOLOGICAL ILLUSTRATIONS AND THEIR CULTURAL REPRESENTATIONS IN PIETER BRUEGHEL’S PAINTINGS AND WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS’ POEMS

Öz

Mythology is a universal truth because of connecting diverse cultures in that it creates a common language that all people communicate each other. The power of mythology is so strong that 15th century painter Pieter Brueghel connects to 20th century poet William Carlos Williams. Mythology here plays an important role in the cultural flows between two different centuries. When Williams sees the masterpieces of Brueghel in Kunsthistorishes Museum, he writes poems about them and these ekphrastic poems involve in mythological representations. This paper tells how these poems will be created besides the illustrations of mythic figures. The bridge between words and images merges with the mythology in the context of cultural responses of Williams and Brueghel. At that point, it can be said that mythology is omnipresent and its effects are continuing as an on-going process throughout history and so it does. Myth or mythology is always a superior notion and in the minds of humanity in that the ultimate power gives eternal illustrations to people. Pieter Brueghel is one of them who uses this power in his masterpieces. There are many mythological references in his paintings and each is a great allegory for understanding the society in Brueghel’s period. These mythological embodiments are transferred into the words of William Carlos Williams and it indicates how two different centuries meet with an intimate connection in the context of mythology. Why is the mythology a universal reality? From which perspectives did Williams and Brueghel deal with myth in their works? What is the essence of mythological representations in art? This paper tries to reveal these questions and it will take you from 15th to 20th century like a journey.
