Editorial B/orders unbound: Marginality, ethnicity and identity in literatures(Peter Lang AG, 2017) Kırca, Mustafa; Kırca, Mustafa; 33693Contemporary literature concerns itself with transgressing borders and destabilizing hierarchical orders. Border crossing to question the given limits and orthodox beliefs brings many disciplines and diverse experiences together, and the result is a myriad of ways of expressing the alternatives when the established boundaries are liberated. The volume presents fifteen essays and brings together many academics and scholars who share a common interest in transgressing borders in literatures. The book is determined to encourage border violations, and each paper tackles the issue of border crossing in different realms and territories.Article Çevirinin dilbilimsel yönleri üzerine(2021) Kırca, Mustafa; Bal, Evren; Kırca, Mustafa; 33693Article Citation - WoS: 0Citation - Scopus: 0Gender Performance and Transitivity in Angela Carter’s The Passion of New Eve(Hebrew Univ Magnes Press, 2023) Kirca, Mustafa; Kırca, Mustafa; Erkilic, Sila; 33693Article Citation - Scopus: 0Jeanette Winterson's literalizing metaphors in the passion and sexing the Cherry(Karadeniz Technical University, 2021) Kirca, M.; Kırca, Mustafa; 33693The 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.

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.Article Citation - WoS: 0Citation - Scopus: 0Postmodern philosophy of history and reading its traces in postcolonial (re)writing(Springer, 2023) Kirca, Mustafa; Kırca, Mustafa; 33693Presenting 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.Article Re- creating the doppelganger in peter ackroyds the casebook of victor frankenstein(2015) Kırca, Mustafa; Munar, Hazal; 33693İngiliz 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.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Reading Rushdie in Translation: Midnight’s Children, Postcolonial Writing/Translation, and Literatures of the World(Edinburgh Univ Press, 2021) Rundholz, Adelheid; Rundholz, Adelheid; Kirca, Mustafa; Kırca, Mustafa; 33693Book Part Salman Rushdie's 'union-byHybridization' and the issue of multiculturality(Cambridge Scholars, 2018) Kırca, Mustafa; ; 33693Book Citation - Scopus: 0Textual B/Orders violated: the hyperreal world of J.

The paper claims that generic signals, which are supposed to be working mostly at an unconscious level to create a generic context for the reader in interpreting a text, become double-voiced by the parodist’s manipulation and work at a conscious level. It is common that the parody writer barrows and appropriates generic signals of the genre he parodies to indicate the parodied genre and also his departure from this genre. Parodic intentions become palpable immediately with the „parodic stylization” — to use Bakhtin’s term — of the generic signals, which brings about the Bakhtinian refraction of the authorial voice in parody. Since the parody writer intentionally appropriates the speech of the prodied genre, authorial refractions become clearer in parodic discourse. Through studying such refractions with a particular emphasis on genre parodies and specific examples from Cervantes’ Don Quijote, the present study argues that generic signals in parodic discourse assume the double-function of signaling the parodied genre and the parodying voice simultaneously. In order to show how generic signals assume a highly communicative function in parody, this study focuses on texts where the author parodies not a single writer and a single work, but a whole genre with its conventions. As a genre parody which aims for the governing discourse behind the genre it imitates, Cervantes’ Don Quijote produce significant examples that the double-function of generic signals can be seen explicitly through the authorial refractions in the text.Article (Western)Word / (Eastern)Image in My Name is Red: An Imagological Reading of Orhan Pamuk’s Ekphrastic Reimagination(2022) Kırca, Mustafa; Kirca, Mustafa; 33693Bu 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.
