Abstract

Existentialism is a philosophical movement rooted in the writings of Heidegger, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche and Sartre. As well as the philosophers, existential thought was a point of interest for many men of letters. Hemingway is one of those novelists on whose writings existentialism had a great impact. In addition to his highly appreciated novels, Hemingway made a reputation in writing short stories and his name is usually associated with war. “A Clean Well-Lighted Place” is a short story written by Hemingway in which there is hardly a plot. The present study aims to investigate and interpret this short story with reference to existentialism, nihilism and the idea of the absurd

Özet

Varoluşçuluk Heidegger, Kirkegaard, Nietzsche ve Sartre gibi filozofların yazılarında kök salmış felsefi bir akımdır. Varoluşçu düşünce filozoflar kadar edebiyat insanlarını da etkisi altına almıştır. Hemingway de yazılarında varoluşçuluğun önemli bir etkisi olan yazarlardan birisidir. Çok takdir görmüş romanlarına ek olarak kısa öykü alanında da ün yapmıştır ve adı genellikle ‘savaş’ kavramı ile ilişkilendirilir. Hemingway’in ‘Temiz ve Aydınlık Bir Yer’ başlıklı öyküsünde neredeyse bir olay örgüsü yok gibidir. Bu çalışma, adı geçen öyküyü varoluşçu düşünce çerçevesinde hiçlik ve saçma düşüncesine atıfta bulunarak incelemeyi hedeflemektedir
