Article EĞİTİMİN TEKNOLOJİ İLE SINAVI(Herkese Bilim Teknoloji, 2017) Erton, İsmail; English Translation and InterpretationTeknoloji… Bu kelimeyi her gün telaffuz etmeyen veya her gün, her saat, her dakika nimetlerinden istifade etmeyen var mı? En azından evlerimizde kullandığımız elektrik bile beli bir teknolojik altyapıyı gerektiriyor. Hayatın hemen her alanında ve her sektörde teknoloji kullanılıyor. Eğitim sektörü de elbette bu pastadan payını alıyor. Günümüzde eğitim teknolojileri denilince herkesin aklına cep telefonları, tablet veya dizüstü bilgisayarlar ve projeksiyon cihazları geliyor. Oysa, 1795 yılında Nicolas-Jacques Conte’nin kurşunkalemi bulması veya Christopher Sholes’in 1868 yılında QWERTY klavyeye sahip ilk daktiloyu geliştirmesi de zamanın müthiş icatları veya başka bir deyişle teknolojik gelişmeleriydi. Peki ne değişti? Eskilere, yani X kuşağı ve öncesine soracak olursanız şu anki teknolojiye duyulan ihtiyaç çok abartılı ve gereksiz. Oysaki Y ve Z kuşakları için elektriklerin 5 dakika kesilmesi ve internetin devre dışı kalması tamammül edilemez bir durum! Aslında her kuşak kendine göre haklı argümanlar barındırıyor.thesis.listelement.badge GOTHIC ELEMENTS AS REFLECTED IN FRANKENSTEIN AND DRACULA: THE UNCANNY IN THE REPRESENTATION OF EVIL(2022) Çalışkan, HüseyinIn this thesis, the novels of the nineteenth century British writers Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker and their novels Frankenstein and Dracula are examined respectively with reference to Sigmund Freud's article titled “The Uncanny” focusing on the context of the uncanny and the situations that lead readers and characters to the concept of the uncanny. In both novels, the main characters “Monster” and Jonathan Harker have been elaborated by taking into account the uncanny situations they are in and around them, based on the the basic elements of the Gothic novel. In both novels, it is seen that gothic elements caused fear and uncanny on the reader and the characters as well. This feeling pushes people to adopt unfamiliar approaches in situations they are or not used to. Thus, the characters begin to question life by internalising fear. Not only characters, but readers can feel it in the same vein. One of the aims of the gothic novel which is to drive the reader to fear and hesitation, is conveyed through both the main and minor characters in these novels. In this thesis, the gothic creatures and their unusual situations will be analysed in the two novels written in the same periods within the framework of the gothic elements based on Freud's article.Article Identity Crisis in Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient(2015) Gültekin, Lerzan; Department of English Language and LiteratureThe aim of this paper is to analyze identity crisis in Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient from a postcolonial perspective through the concept of nationalism and national identity, emphasizing cultural, psychological and physical displacement due to colonization, travelling, exploration and space / place (cartography), referring to the theories and views of Benedict Anderson, Homi Bhabba, Franz Fanon, Edward Said, and so on. The paper will mainly focus on the erasure of the national identities and selves of a group of European explorers, scientists and spies, including the colonized Kip, an Indian, serving as a bomb defuser in the British Army. Even though these scientists’ mission is to map the desert, they can hardly achieve it. The desert is uncontrollable and unreliable because of sand storms. Its surface changes rapidly and one can be lost forever. In other words, the desert is the metaphor of their unreliable national identities that are fragmented and varied because of their traumatic personal experiences in this alien landscape and culture. The paper will emphasize the fragility of identities and selves even for those who represent European civilization and Imperial Rule as hegemonic powers together with the colonized Kip who is shaped by these powers as a hybrid identity.Article “Nothing is more Real Than Nothing” A Reading of Beckett’s “Ping” as a Postmodern Text(2015) Batum Menteşe, Oya; Department of English Language and LiteratureProf. Raymond Federman, who was a close friend and mentor of Beckett, in his famous lecture “The Imagery Museum of Samuel Beckett” (2006) delivered following his friend’s death, has said about understanding Beckett that one should not even try, instead one should use one’s sense and imagination to appreciate the imagery of “Sam’s text painting”, for adds Federman; Beckett who could have been himself a great painter, became that painter in his work. He painted beautiful tableaux for us with words rather than with paint.Article Representations of Women : Gender Relations and The Emergence of The Processive Female Subject in Nezihe Meriç’s Hayriye and William Faulkner’s A Rose for Emily(Littera, 2010) Gültekin, Lerzan; Department of English Language and LiteratureThe aim of this study to analyze, compare and contrast the representations of the two heroines in the two short stories “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner and “Hayriye” (an eponymous title) by a contemporary, Turkish woman writer Nezihe Meriç (1925-2009) from French feminist perspectives in terms of gender relations. The representations of the heroines, Emily and Hayriye, are analyzed in terms of gender relations from French feminist perspective, referring to the theories of Cixous, Irigaray and Kristeva. The transgressive attitude of both heroines who subvert patriarchy have been analyzed in terms of “laughter”, subject-in-=process, abject, jouissance, mimesis and the concept of the other, associated with body as a body language through which women exert power and constitute themselves as processive subjects to influence others such as Meriç’s heroine, Hayriye who influences all her neighbours in the story. The depiction of the two heroines from two different perspectives, namely, patriarchal and female, have also been analyzed and emphasized in the study.Article Who is More Responsible? Preparatory Class Students’ Perceptions of Responsibility(ELT Research Journal, 2013) Cesur, Kürşat; Ertaş, Abdullah; Department of English Language and LiteratureThe main aim of this study is to explore learners‟ perceptions of their own responsibility in learning English. The question of whether our learners in Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University (hereafter COMU) Compulsory and Voluntary English Language Prep Classes are responsible enough for their own learning or not is the main focus of this study. Whether some variables like gender, the type of the prep class education (compulsory or voluntary) and the students‟ departments will affect their perceptions on responsibility is questioned in this study. Quantitative research methodology was used in the study. Being a sub-category of a survey method, a questionnaire was used by the researchers to find out the students‟ perceptions of responsibility in English preparatory classes of COMU. Findings reveal that female students are much more responsible than the male students are. Also, voluntary learners are less aware of their strengths and weaknesses in learning English. Students at Travel Management were found to know what to practice in English and how to learn English more when compared to the students of Archeology. Furthermore, students seem to have some problems in planning and revising their own learning. Bearing the findings of the study in mind, suggestions were drawn at the end of the study.
