An Interpretation of the Novel The Wedding of Zein in the Specific of Allegorical Interpretation as Literary Text Analysis Method
Öz
This article presents an analysis method for literary texts, basing on the authentic meaning of allegory. This method reveals itself as a text-centered critical analysis method. In this article, firstly, a brief etymological investigation of allegory was made. Then, some data determined as a result of the investigation were evaluated. These evaluations were aimed to form a basis for the methodological side of the article. On this basis, we attempt to infer the character of allegorical interpretation. The indicator of the word uttered is not always aimed. What is said may differ from what was aimed. This situation is frequently encountered in the arts of speech. Literary texts that consist of fiction can also contain this situation. Allegorical interpretation arises from such a possibility and builds itself on this possibility. Allegorical interpretation centering a literary text goes from the thing told to the thing aimed. There are signs in the telling. These signs actually relate to what is aimed. The allegorist as an allegorical interpreter tries to catch the meaning by making a critical analysis of these signs. Thanks to these signs, the aim is revealed. Therefore, this method perceives the narrartive of a literary text with this characteristic as a tool. In other words, according to the method, what is told in a literary text is actually a bridge for what is aimed to be told. This article practically realizes this method in the novel The Wedding of Zein by the Sudanese writer Tayyib Salih.
