    Otherness and Displacement in Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys
    (Literary Voice, 2023) Aras, Goksen; Takva, Serdar
    English hegemonic colonial rule of the other parts of the world was based on unequal power relations and the domination of people from different cultures and ancestral backgrounds. Like the other colonized territories, the Caribbean was one of the countries whose social, political and cultural structure was dominated by England. During its rule in the Caribbean, Britain enslaved black people and forced them to work in the sugar cane plantations thus, created hostility between the Creoles and the black. More importantly, the colonizer othered the indigenous dwellers and the colonized people felt secure neither in their homelands nor in the colonizer's country which led to displacement. After the proclamation of independence, postcolonial writers from the former colonies tackle post-independence problems inherited by colonization in their work. Jean Rhys also handles controversial postcolonial concepts in her work. Her novel titled Wide Sargasso Sea is a notable narrative of the turbulent Caribbean life after the Emancipation. This paper in this sense explores Wide Sargasso Sea in terms of its representation of otherness and displacement in the context of postcolonial studies.

    Doctoral Thesis
    Sam Selvon'un Yalnız Londralılar (1956), Tayeb Salih'in Kuzeye Göç Mevsimi (1966) ve Hanif Kureishi'nin Varoşların Budası'nda (1990) Yer Alan Göçmen Deneyiminin Yansıtılması
    (2020) Takva, Serdar; Aras, Gökşen
    Bu tez göçmenlerin nasıl ötekileştirildiğini, yabancılaştırıldığını ve sonuç itibariyle ne Batılı ne de Doğulu şeklinde tanımlanan parçalanmış kimliklere nasıl zorlandıklarını yansıtmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, Sam Selvon'un, Tayeb Salih'in ve Hanif Kureishi'nin postkolonyal romanlarında yer alan göçmen deneyimini sömürge sonrası teori ışığında özellikle Fanon bağlamında inceleyecektir. Avrupa Emperyalizmi, diğer ulusların sistematik bir şekilde sömürülmesi olarak onbeşinci yüzyılda sömürgecilik faaliyetleriyle ortaya çıktı. Avrupalı güçler Ötekileri medenileştireceklerini iddia ederek batılı olmayan toplumları köleleştirdi, bu sayede zenginleşip dünya çapındaki ekonomiyi tahakkümleri altına aldılar. Emperyal güçler arasında, Büyük Britanya Emperyalizm tarihindeki en etkin ülke olmuştur. Britanya'nın sömürge faaliyetleri Elizabeth döneminde başlamış ondokuzuncu yüzyılda zirveye ulaşmış ve yirminci yüzyılın ikinci çeyreğine kadar devam etmiştir. Britanya Karayiplerden Afrika ve Asya'ya birçok ulusu egemenliği altına almış ve bu ulusların ekonomilerinde, politikalarında ve kültürlerinde önemli rol oynamıştır. İkinci Dünya Savaşı'nın ardından baskın ideolojisini kaybetmesi sonucunda, eski sömürgelerden topluluklar, ülkelerindeki ekonomik ve politik çalkantılardan dolayı daha iyi eğitim ve iş bulmak amacıyla Britanya'ya özellikle Londra'ya göç etmeye başladılar. 'Tersine sömürge' olarak nitelendirilen bu tür göç faaliyetleri İngiltere'nin sosyo-kültürel yapısını değiştirmiş ve ülkenin hızlı bir şekilde çok-kültürlü bir ülkeye dönüşmesine sebep olmuştur. Sömürge sonrası dönemde göçmenler anavatan tarafından kabul edilmeyi ümit ederken Batının öteki ile ilgili ideolojik algısı değişmemiş dolayısıyla, göçmenler göç sonrası ötekileştirici politikalara maruz kalmışlardır.

    The American Dream: Cultural and Social Downfall in John Steinbeck's of Mice and Men
    (Literary Voice, 2022) Aras, Goksen; Takva, Serdar
    As known, throughout history, most societies have experienced hard times that have made life difficult to bear. Among these hard times are political, social and economic conditions which shape the ways human beings perceive the world and lead their lives. The Great Depression, that ravaged American society in the 1929s, is one of the most catastrophic economic events in the history of America and it is considered to be a calamity resulting in unemployed, desperate and even homeless people. John Steinbeck, being one of the foremost representatives of American writers, handles the devastating effects of the Great Depression and how it affected numerous people from different parts of the community. In this period, from women to the black, from the old to the disabled. most people wanted to lead a life based on humanly standards but what they expected turned into a frustration paving the way for the impossibility of the American dream and thus cultural and social downfall of such people no matter how hard they try to achieve their goals. Steinbeck's novel titled Of Mice and Men in this context is a touching representation of frustration, hopelessness, despair to have a place to live in, and a portrayal of unattainable happiness and the impossible American dream. This paper explores the futile efforts to realize the American dream and thus unhappiness and failure from Steinbeck's point of view and it presents the reflections of such a concept through the fictionalized characters in the novel.
