NAMIK KEMAL'S VATAN YAHUT SILISTRE IN TERMS OF ITS SOCIAL IMPACT: AN EXPERIMENT ON LITERATURE SOCIOLOGY

Abstract

In this study, Namık Kemal's Vatan yahut Silistre will be examined in the context of sociology of literature in the context of the social conditions of the period, theater culture and Westernization discussions. While the Tanzimat period meant the formalization of the progress of Türk modernization on the axis of Westernization, the first Western-style literary products came to the country during this period. Theater is the most effective way of communicating with the society among new literary genres, and after the Tanzimat intellectuals realized this aspect of theater, they made an effort to create a theater culture in the country. The theater, which was monopolized by the minority communities in Pera, was overcome with the establishment of a "theatre-i Osmani" in Gedikpaşa, while the "Theater Development Committee" was formed in order to stage the plays that the Türks could watch and to spread the theater. The most notable name in this committee is Namık Kemal, who had a good knowledge of theater for his period and followed the Western theater closely in Paris and London. Kemal, who staged Vatan yahut Silistre shortly after the Council was founded, witnessed the social impact of the theater very closely. This effect is not only observed in society, but also other intellectuals who write the work and love theatre, feel this effect deeply. In his work, while trying to convey the idea of patriotism and freedom to the audience, the audience's shouting slogans in the streets and the press discussing this work for days shows the effect of a theater piece on the audience. Namık Kemal, who wrote the work, is arrested and sent to a long exile that will last 38 months. It is known that theater is an effective means of communicating with the audience in general. This study aims to analyze the work-society relationship through theatre. In this direction, the work of Vatan yahut Silistre, written by Namık Kemal, an idealist and political intellectual, during the Tanzimat period, when the theater culture was just beginning to form, and its social impact will be analyzed.
