Book Birth of the English novel(Çankaya University Publications, 2005) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497Book Part Cultural Intersections in Stoker’s Dracula: Transylvanian and Ottoman Identities as the Vampiric “Other(s)” of Victorians(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2019) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497This volume investigates identity discourses and self-constructions/de-constructions in various texts through imagological readings of films, narratives, and art works, examining different layers of cultural identities, on the one hand, and measuring the literary reception of ethnic identity constitution to reveal both the self and hetero images, on the other. The book features theoretical and analytical approaches with insights borrowed from multiple disciplines, and mainly focuses on the application of imagological perspectives in the fields of literature and translation, and specifically in literary works “carried over” from one culture to another. It will be of interest for scholars and researchers working in the fields of literature, translation, cultural studies, and imagology, as well as for students studying in these fields.Article Fear and Wish-fulfilling Flights of Fancy: Walpole’s Nightmare of Class Conflict and the Restoration of Aristocracy in The Castle of Otranto(2014) Koç, Ertuğrul; Atcan Altan, NeslihanThis article discusses The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole as the first gothic work dramatizing, through the theme of “usurpation”, the emergence of the new but “greedy” bourgeoisie in England in the eighteenth century as a threat against the long-established, and from Walpole’s perspective, “divinely ordered” aristocratic system. Au fait with the worries and expectations of aristocracy, for he is the son of Robert Walpole (the first Prime Minister of England), and a member of nobility and the Parliament, Walpole, in his work, cannot help defending the established system against the emerging bourgeois paradigm. In the article, Walpole’s concern with the chaotic state of his country, which he reveals through building a devastating class conflict in Otranto, will be analyzed with the help of biographical, historical, and Marxist approaches. Finally, by referring to the Freudian theory of “wish-fulfillment through dreams”, Walpole’s solution for the conflict will be shown to be a self-gratifying one, satisfying the author’s aristocratic selfArticle Rebirth of the gothic in the metropolitan legends(Çankaya Üniversitesi, 2006) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497Bu makale onsekizinci yüzyıl gotik roman geleneğinin yirminci yüzyıl grafik roman tarzında yeniden ortaya çıkışını irdelemekte ve gotik edebiyatın büyük sosyal dönüşüm süreçlerinin bir ürünü olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Makale bu tarzın ilk ya da son örnekleri olsun, bu eserlerin kapitalizmin ortaya çıkışı ve insanın bilinç kazanma sürecine paralel giden metaforik göndermeler olduğu değerlendirmesinde bulunmaktadır: Gotik roman tarzının ilk örneklerinde kapitalizm nasıl eleştirilmişse, yirminci yüzyıl grafik romanlarında da kapitalist sistem ve sistemin yarattığı materyalist bireye dolaylı atışar vardır. Sonuçta, bu tarzın örnekleri kapitalist kültüre ait bireyin manevi, ahlaki ve entellektüel boşluğunu dile getirmektedir.Article Rebirth of the gothic in the metropolitan legends(Çankaya Üniversitesi, 2006) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497Bu makale onsekizinci yüzyıl gotik roman geleneğinin yirminci yüzyıl grafik roman tarzında yeniden ortaya çıkışını irdelemekte ve gotik edebiyatın büyük sosyal dönüşüm süreçlerinin bir ürünü olduğunu iddia etmektedir.

Hardy shows that, having created God as the culmination of his own moral perception, man hopelessly expects mercy and poetic justice from his own creation. Tess’s catastrophe is not the work of Christian God, but the work of the powers beyond the understanding of the character. Although Hardy suggests the solution for the circle of tragedy in human solidarity, in the civilization of man, or in the social stratification of the Victorian world, however, there is no place for peace and harmony. Hence, from Hardy’s perspective, man is alone and defenseless in the face of the tragedy awaiting him. Criticizing in a sardonic way the patriarchal mentality and the ignorance of his main character Tess, Hardy reveals that human existence is tragic, and what defines the life of individual is crass-casualty.Book The Victorians and the novelists: from Dickens to Hardy(Barış Platin, 2010) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497Article Wutheringheights: a hybrid that rejects classification(Çankaya Üniversitesi, 2007) Koç, Ertuğrul; 6497Much has been said about Wuthering Heights and Emily Bronte. Literary criticism that surrounds the work and its author, however, still continues to haunt the situations of both the novel and the novelist. Rejecting the formal tone and abstract subject matter of the criticism produced so far, I, in this article, analyze the text and its author from deconstructive, biographical, and reader response perspectives. Bronte wrote Wuthering Heights in the Victorian Age, when literary trend was concerned with the urban life. Despite being much discussed in literary circles and appreciated for its out-of-tradition themes, the work is neither the product of the age, nor does it belong to the anterior romantic (or gothic) tradition. The novel is down to earth within the unique conditions it was written, and this is because the writer was a unique personality to produce such an unclassifiable masterpiece.
