Yılmaz Açık Science fiction, which is supposed to have started with the Greek writer Lukianos in the 2nd century, started to appear in Turkish literature for the first time in the 19th century with Jules Verne translations. In this period, although Ahmet Mithat Efendi's A Science Novel or American Doctors (1888) took its place in Turkish literature as the first copyrighted work, there was no interest in this genre for a very long time. Science fiction, which continued its existence with very few works published until the 1970s, became more visible in the 1980s with the influence of fanzines and science fiction magazines published after the 1970s. After 1980, the novels published in America and Europe were translated into Turkish and with the effect of science fiction films in cinema, it started to take its place in Turkish literature, especially after 2000.
In this book, the place and development of science fiction in Turkish literature has been tried to be revealed by examining the novels published in the genre of science fiction after 1980.

İbrahim Demirci We present one of the most comprehensive books about Ahmet Hâşim, one of the great poets of Turkish Poetry: Ahmet Hâşim's Prose. Ahmet Hâşim, the strong, subtle and wild poet of O Belde, Staircase, Carnation, Piyale, Nightingale, Garden, Suvari, enriched our language and literature with his prose. Ahmet Hâşim, who added "experimental" depth and flavor to almost all of his anecdotes, interviews and travel writings, which he published in various newspapers and magazines and only one third of which he made into a book, avoided being the plaything of literary movements and political ideologies; was able to look at the world with free, curious, sometimes childish and mischievous eyes; benefited as much as possible from the cultural accumulation of all humanity; He produced in-depth texts with an aesthetic approach. İbrahim Demirci, with the meticulousness of a jeweler, dealt with all his prose, both published and unpublished, in this study; evaluated both in terms of content and form. This work, which is a basic source in the context of Hashim's prose, is not a tribute to Hashim, who has already deserved such works, but a duty.
“But why should it be necessary to think like so-and-so in order to have thought right?” “You had to have a soul for you to understand me, and that soul had to be poisoned in a way that was incurable, like the soul of our fellow countryman Loti.” “Mosque and human, robe and turban, barbecue and hookah are not what is called orient; The Orient sees and hears them and adopts them while seeing them. / Literature is in the air of life and in the nets of nerves. Our painters will know this the day they are ready to get out of the turpentine-smelling air of their ateliers.” “Of all the temples, it is the mosque that gets the first light from the sun. Minarets with copper arrows rise in the air to see the sun first.” “No face is as beautiful in reality as it seems in the imagination.” “In Istanbul, there are many poets who are incapable of using their wings, like bees falling into a honey pot, and walk with their feet in shambles, as opposed to a poet whose arm was struck by the electrical wires of a political issue without his knowledge, but once or twice in his life in Istanbul.” “No artist wants to talk about his work to others before creating it. Because a work whose secret has been exposed is doomed to die before it is born.” “One of the last definitions of art, which has been described differently in every era, is this: 'A means of compensating for the caresses that real life has denied us.'” “Germany is a big pink apple. But it is wormy inside.” “A nation that is constantly worried about whether I am loved or not is a nation that has given up hope of being liked.”

The language that gives meaning to life carries the elements it takes from experiences to a fictional world. In this fictional world, a realm that is not disconnected from life is created and works expressing this realm emerge. These are sometimes seen in the form of poetry, sometimes in the form of stories. This means that language is a tool for creating works as well as being a means of agreement. Language, which is the sound and verbal world of nations, and the works created with language are not only the guarantee of the existence of the nations, but also the expression of their historical knowledge and experience.
The book includes methods and techniques used or required to be used in language and literature teaching. In addition to the methods and techniques frequently used in Turkey, the methods, approaches and techniques used in the Western world are also included in this study. The historical flow of teaching Turkish and Turkish literature, its current situation; Information about approaches to language and literature teaching, applied lectures, planning, measurement and evaluation are included.

Ferhat Karabulut This book deals with the issue of the origin and diversification of human language. your tongue; Of course, it is very difficult to determine when, how and where it emerged. There are many claims made in this regard. Every thinker and scientist who has pondered on the origin and nature of language has endeavored to prove his thesis by presenting some evidence in his own way. Since language, like other beings, does not leave fossils or traces, the opinions put forward often become controversial. It should be emphasized that a significant part of the views put forward are valid and should be taken into account. People (actually societies); worldviews, ideologies, belief systems and expectations have more or less permeated the search for the source of language.
This book aims to look at the origin of language from the perspective of legends. Myths, legends, epics, tales and legends, which are invaluable products of the collective memories of societies, provide important clues about the origin of language and the diversification of languages. He also combined all these genres under the umbrella concept of "legend". Although legends do not provide absolute scientific evidence, they become the subject of science, as Ahmet Bican Ercilasun stated. We often illuminate the dark corridors of history with the light that legends throw before us.
This book also evaluated some scientific studies and claims under the title of legend, based on the metaphorical meanings of the concept of legend today. In this sense, the book consists of two main parts. The first part includes the source, nature and diversification of language, based on natural legends. The second part discusses some scientific and experimental researches in the context of the origin and nature of language, starting from the metaphorical meaning of the legend.

In this structure, it is seen that the feelings, thoughts, views of the people who lived in different times or geographies, and the way they express their own existence are shaped by national and local characteristics and become universal.
While national literatures address certain societies, world literature addresses humanity; It is the common heritage of all humanity. While the issue of which authors and works should be considered as a priority when it comes to world literature is open to debate, what matters here is what we hear and feel from these writers and works, regardless of their language, religion and nationality. Regardless of nationality, the language of emotions is common.

In this respect, it is thought that the work will constitute an important resource for researchers and art lovers who are interested in world literature.

The beginning of Anatolian-centered Turkish folklore studies is also dated to this period. Turkish folklore, advancing towards a scientific formation with the pioneering works of Turkist intellectuals, has shown a rapid development in the context of the cultural policies of the Republic of Turkey. The fact that folklore studies have started to be carried out in an institutional framework has brought about the representation of this new branch of knowledge in our academy. Many scientists have provided unforgettable services in the progress of this process, which dates back to the 1960s, and in understanding the importance of folklore in cultural sciences.
folklore; In addition to becoming an undergraduate and graduate level department in the "Turkish Language and Literature" departments of the academies, the need for teaching materials has increased day by day with the opening of the "Folklore" departments, which aim to train experts in the field of folklore.

In this regard, we will not first lease our minds to the West or borrow their minds and lie on it. Because not only they are thinking, we are thinking too, we are also making “production ideas”.
Today, Turkey is located in the "periphery", not the center that determines and determines the intellectual agenda in the world, and often acts in a peripheral situation depending on the agendas determined by the center.
Therefore, our second goal is to help pave the way for getting out of the periphery and being at the centre. At the same time, it is to help the revival of our civilization, which we belong to in history, as an alternative, and to contribute to our thought life in its rebuilding.
This book also aims to reveal that contemporary Turkish thought is strong enough to be showcased in the world thought arena. If the development of our intellectual life towards its “natural medium” continues, it is certain that Turkish thought will make a significant contribution to world thought by producing newer and more original ideas. Now, we should leave behind the period of self-evaluation according to the thoughts of Western thinkers, and aim at the level where they can evaluate their own thoughts by looking at our products of thought, as in the past. We must be aware of it, so that we can move on to the periods of producing more of our new and universal ideas.

Adile Yılmaz, Ayşe Derya Eskimen, Ayşe Yücel Çetin, Halil İbrahim Şahin, İhsan Kalenderoğlu, İsmet Çetin, Onur Alp Kayabaşı, Satı Kumartaşlıoğlu Folk literature is a wide field of literature that is the product of common consciousness, and that enables societies to exhibit the will to live together due to this feature and makes its existence permanent. Expressing the universe and the world of thought of human beings who seek the secret of existence in the universe; Literary data, which are skillfully created in every field, from mythical narratives that tell the story of the unknown universe of humanity to individual pleasures and sufferings, are generally interpreted within the broad field called folk literature.
Within the concept of folk literature, there is a rich literary field ranging from the creation of the universe to the creation of beings, from the mythical narratives in which the stories of the transformation and formation of the existence are told, to the literary data produced by the collective consciousness in the time lived. Folk literature, which continues its existence in all areas of history and historical-cultural geography, from belief-based rhetoric to entertainment-centered data, from the caress words of infancy to the laments for the lost, on the one hand, is preserved and transferred in the individual memory, and on the other hand, it maintains its existence in the social memory. It also contributes to the gathering of Turkish society around a common identity.

İsmet Çetin The stories, which are among the elements of oral culture, seen with different names, performers and performance styles in the wide geographical area where the Turkish society lives, were fictionalized with an "aesthetic" approach in the period they were created and lived, and were conveyed through words and writing; It is one of the literary genres that changed while being transferred and became the source of new literary creations. The width of the borders of the Turkish communities, which have been in constant and rapid movement since the first periods of history, and the lifestyle lived accordingly, caused the difference in the line of literary development. Despite this, the stories have been the common narratives of Turkish groups living in different parts of the Turkish geography. This book contains general information about the formation, development, performers, performance style and structure of folk storytelling, which is one of the cultural elements that form the common memory of Turkish society.
