Abstract

Evaluating a story within the framework of the “absurdity theory” of metaphor requires questioning the text in comparison to reality and evaluating the position it has taken within the framework of its own system versus reality. The metaphorical process which begins with a socially consensus on the meaning of a word – a word means the same for all individuals of a society – continues with “logical contrast” and “inner contradiction”. Subjects like the definition of metaphor, compatibility, randomness and time are always causing a opposition inside of absurdity. The theory of absurdity in this regard is in a conflict with reality and perception of reality. Thus, stories that include “dream” and “imagination” are very appropriate for explaining this theory. In the story “The Forgotten” by Oğuz Atay, both levels were positioned one above the other, along with the continuity they create within. In emphasizing the differences between bending, breaking, knotting, and reshaping reality, we would have mentioned an important conceptual chaos in explaining the concept of “absurdity.”

Özet

Metaforun “Absürtlük Teorisi” kapsamında bir hikâyeyi değerlendirmek, bilhassa metnin gerçeklik karşısında sorgulanmasını ve gerçeklik karşısında edindiği konumun kendi içinde oluşturduğu düzen çerçevesinde değerlendirilmesini gerekli kılar. Bir kelimenin toplum içi bir uzlaşmayla -o toplumun bütün fertleri için- tek bir anlama gelecek ve bu anlamın tamamını gösterecek şekilde bir manaya delâlet etmesi (lafzın vaz’î delâleti) ile başlayan metaforik süreç “mantıksal zıtlık” ve “kendi içinde çelişenlik” ile devam eder. Metaforun tanımı, uygunluk, tesadüfilik ve zaman gibi mevzular absürtlük için hemen daima bir muhalefet tavrı içinde yürür. Absürtlük teorisi bu bakımdan hakikat ve hakikat algısı ile sürekli bir hesaplaşma içindedir. Dolayısı ile “rüyâ” ve “hayal” içerikli hikâyeler bu teorinin izahı için oldukça müsaittir. Oğuz Atay’ın “Unutulan” isimli hikâyesinde de her iki katman kendi içlerinde oluşturdukları süreklilik ile üst üste konuşlandırılmıştır. Gerçekliğin bükülmesi, kırılması, düğümlenmesi ve yeniden biçimlendirilmesi arasındaki farkları da vurgulayarak “absürtlük” kavramını teorik olarak izaha çalışmak ile mühim bir kavramsal kargaşaya da temas etmiş olacağız.
