    Postmodern Philosophy of History and Reading Its Traces in Postcolonial (Re)writing
    (Springer, 2023) Kirca, Mustafa
    Presenting the outlines of the postmodern philosophy of historiography as it shapes the theoretical background for the analysis of the historical novel, this study aims to render that the recent understanding of history and its reconceptualization in decolonizing fictional (re)writings still provides the "re-visionary" stance seen in contemporary postcolonial narratives. After the introduction of postmodern innovations in theoretical and imaginative writing, there has emerged a rather newfangled view of the historical novel and an increasing inclination for narratives that attempt to reimagine historical moments and chronicles they integrate into their fictional worlds to pursue a re-visionary questioning. The critical frameworks of postcolonial historical fiction and speaking subalterns have moved on in postmillennial historical novels and political novels. Considering that postcolonial literary theories and fictional (re)writings attempt to deconstruct homogenous discourses and the Eurocentric (history) writing of the colonizer, it is claimed that, for the sake of textual decolonization, recent works of postcolonial historical writing intersect in several ways with the newfangled view of the historical novel.

    Tying Memories Into a Pattern: William Golding's Free Fall as Autobiografiction and Trauma Narrative
    (Rector Ciu Cyprus int Univ, 2022) Kirca, Mustafa
    William Golding's 1959 Free Fall depicts the narrator/character Samuel Montjoy's retrospective interrogation of his past in his "non-chronological" autobiography to understand his present self. His first-person narration is a journey into his memories presented according to their importance for him at different stages of his life (the narrated self) and shows the role of memory in shaping the present self (the narrating self). The narrator regulates his memories to conceive a coherent pattern in his autobiographical account which will also give meaning to his life and help construct a unified identity. However, he adopts a structure that has to rely on his remembering/forgetting, which problematizes the idea of constructing the self through unreliable memory. With this quality of the novel as an early example of the "fiction of memory," Golding's text is inventive and looks forward to contemporary narrative approaches to autobiographical writing. Free Fall has been widely studied as an existentialist novel due to the novelist's questioning the concepts of freedom to choose and fall through the protagonist's quest for self-knowledge. However, the aim of this study is to analyse Golding's work as autobiografiction and trauma narrative where the text presents an account of the protagonist's attempt for reconstructing the self through memories subject to his modifications and offers the therapeutic use of his self-narration.

    Re- creating the doppelganger in peter ackroyds the casebook of victor frankenstein
    (2015) Kırca, Mustafa; Munar, Hazal
    İngiliz çağdaş romancılarından Peter Ackroyd, Victor Frankensteinin Vaka Defteri (2008) adlı eserinde, Mary Shelleynin 1818de yazdığı ve artık kanon olarak kabul edilen İngilizce adıyla Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus romanını yeniden kaleme alarak gotik eserlerde karşımıza çıkan kötücül ikiz karakterler (doppelganger) yaratma geleneğine yeni bir yorum getirmiştir. Bu kötücül ikiz, Ackroydun eserinde roman kahramanı olan Victor Frankensteinın bastırılmış dürtülerinin bir dışa vurumu olarak kendisini gösterir. Psikolojik sorunları olan kahramanının yaşadıklarının anlatıldığı bir vaka defteri olarak sunulan bu eserinde romancı, post- modern döneme ait gotik cinayet romanı örneği sunmaktadır. Bu yönüyle, Ackroydun romanı gerçek ile kurmaca arasındaki ilişkiyi sorunsallaştırması bakımından günümüz okurunun be klentilerini karşılayan ve bilinen bir öykünün yeniden yorumlanması da olsa özgün kabul edebileceğimiz bir eserdir.

    Jeanette Winterson's Literalizing Metaphors in the Passion and Sexing the Cherry
    (Karadeniz Technical University, 2021) Kirca, M.; Kırca, Mustafa; İngilizce Mütercimlik ve Tercümanlık
    The aim of this study is to analyze Jeanette Winterson's The Passion and Sexing the Cherry in terms of the feminine symbolic the writer creates in her female characters' narratives through a process of literalizing dead metaphors. Using metaphors in their literal sense, a rhetorical pattern which Regina Barreca calls "metaphor-into-narrative," is often deemed a subversive tool in women writers' works to create "laughter". It shows that women writers often use a metaphor in a conflicting context in their comedic works, and thereby stripping language of its symbolic quality. The present study argues that the marginal subject position of Winterson's female characters as "misfits" creates a noticeable difference in their discourses and suggests a move from the symbolic order of language to a feminine symbolic. With the examples from The Passion and Sexing the Cherry, the article studies Winterson's "literalization" to reveal how the writer uses metaphors out of their original contexts not only to create humor but also to destabilize the singular order of language used in historiographic representation by leaving the distinction between what is figurative and what is literal unclear. Winterson's female characters in The Passion and in Sexing the Cherry are also fitting examples for Bakhtin's "Fool" with their resistance to join in the discourse of patriarchy and to understand the habitual ways of conceiving the world. © 2021 Karadeniz Technical University.

    Multicultural Narratives: Traces and Perspectives
    (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2018) Kırca, Mustafa
    The term ‘multiculturalism’ has been widely quoted to explain and study transnational networks and cultural changes on a global scale. This book focuses on the application of multicultural theories and perspectives in the field of literature and particularly in contemporary narratives. Bringing together ten studies which blur the limits of conventional discourse, and employing an interdisciplinary approach to address research problems using methods and insights borrowed from multiple disciplines, it features theoretical and analytical writings on multiculturalism and its traces in literatures that subvert the essentialist binary frameworks of ethnicity, race, nation and identity in a variety of texts. These include Martin Amis’s The Pregnant Widow, Kazuo Ishiguro’s The Remains of the Day, Salman Rushdie’s Midnights Children and Shame, Hanif Kureishi’s Something to Tell You, J. G. Ballard’s High-Rise, Lady Annie Brassey’s Sunshine and Storm in the East; or, Cruises to Cyprus and Constantinople, and Sir Henry Blount’s A Voyage into the Levant. Approaching theoretical issues concerning multiculturalism from multiple perspectives and looking for its traces in different time periods and genres, this book will be of interest for scholars and researchers working in the fields of literature and cultural studies, as well as students studying in the same fields and the general reader.

    (Western)word / (Eastern)image in My Name Is Red: an Imagological Reading of Orhan Pamuk’s Ekphrastic Reimagination
    (2022) Kirca, Mustafa
    Bu çalışmanın amacı, Orhan Pamuk’un Benim Adım Kırmızı romanını görsel yansıtma biçimlerinin ve Osmanlı minyatür eserlerinin konu edildiği imgemetin ve ekfrastik anlatı olarak incelemektir. Pamuk’un bu eserinde ekfrastik anlatı, Osmanlı ve İranlı üstatların minyatürlerinde yer alan imgelerin roman karakterlerine ve anlatıcılarına dönüşmesi ve bu sayede sürdürdükleri sanat ve gerçeklik ilişkisi üzerine tartışmalarıyla gerçekleşir. Romanda farklı anlatıcı-karakterler, 16. Yüzyıl Osmanlı minyatür resmi ve aynı dönemlerde Batı resim sanatında en bilinen örneklerini veren perspektifi ikili karşıtlık olarak tartışır. Böylece görsel olan romanda anlatının konusu haline gelir. İmge ve söz arasındaki ayrımın netliğini kaybettiği ve her ikisinin de hiyerarşik olmayan bir düzlemde yer aldığı Benim Adım Kırmızı, imgemetin kavramına örnek oluşturur. Ayrıca Pamuk’un bu romanı imgesel olanın yazılı metne aktarıldığı göstergeler arası bir çeviri olarak da değerlendirilir. Romanda, Frenk ya da Venedik üslubu olarak adlandırılan Rönesans perspektif kullanımı objektif gerçekliğe en yakın yansıtma biçimi olarak görülür. Minyatür ise resmettiği nesnelerin gerçeğine benzemeleriyle değil, “anlamı” yansıtma çabası bakımından daha üstün olarak görülür. Romanın konusunu oluşturan bu iki sanat türünün ve onların gerçekliği görme biçimlerinin Doğu-Batı zıtlığı içerisinde sunulması, “biz ve öteki” imgelerinin yeniden şekil aldığı farklı okumalara açar. İmgebilimin de konusunu oluşturan bu türden kimlik çalışmalarının dinamiğini belirleyen öz ve ötekini tanıma/tanımlama için imge yaratımı, Benim Adım Kırmızı adlı romanda birbirine karşıt olarak verilen görme ve resmetme biçimleri üzerinden tartışılmaktadır.
