GENOGRAM: EXAMINATION of THREE GENERATIONS of CEVDET BEY ve OĞULLARI

Abstract

In this research, we aimed to reveal the genogram diagram in the novel of “Cevdet Bey and Oğulları.” Representation of individuals with at least three generations age, gender, marital ties, as well as moods, dependencies, and methods of coping with stress genogram revealed many factors, such as individual and family-based therapies are used. The genogram maps of Cevdet Bey, Refik and Ahmet, who are included in the book, representing three generations, could be examined by extracting them. Not only can the physical characteristics of the characters, but also the relationship between them, communication, decoupling, addiction, etc. concepts be examined in the novel. Although the names and upbringing styles of the characters may change, it can be determined in the work that the toxic events that cannot be solved in the family are repeated. With the help of the study, it was revealed that the novel “Cevdet Bey ve Oğulları”, Orhan Pamuk’s first book which also won two awards, has a separate place in literary works in terms of studying the genogram from all angles.
