TANPINAR’IN DİLİNDEN BİR TOPLUM ELEŞTİRİSİ: SAATLERİ AYARLAMA ENSTİTÜSÜ.

Our study is Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar's work "Saatleri Ayarlama Enstitüsü" in which he realizes social criticism with an ironic style. The work consists of four parts under the titles “Great Hopes, Small Truths, Towards the Morning, Every Season Has an End” and each part is numbered and subdivided into sub-sections. In the work, in which the faulty aspects such as people, institutions or social behaviors that prevent the development of the individual or society are shown and satirized, the author makes social criticism with metaphors, and reveals the differences in the work strikingly with the choice of words and representative objects. While describing the decay in society or institutions, the author pays attention to the relationship between words, ensures that this relationship is transformed into the strongest discourse and makes the irony even stronger by making use of the contrasts between words. In the work, attention is drawn especially to the fact that the work, transactions or behaviors that are wrong within the institution or society later turn into the general acceptance of the society. In our study, after the “Introduction” section, in which information about the event, person, time and place described in each part of the work is given, the author's criticisms that draw our attention and ironically address the faulty aspects of the society in his work are given under headings. Finally, at the end of the study, there is a “Conclusion” section in which the findings obtained about the work are evaluated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
