description | In literature, canon is formed by mentioning authors and poets who meet the
criteria specified by authorities together and including others in this group on
condition that they resemble authors and poets in question. Canon in literature
teaching paves the way for society’s perception of literature to be developed
through a political sieve. This study aims to investigate which authors and poets
are mentioned most frequently in the Turkish language and literature curricula and
observed whether a canon of these poets and authors has been formed. In this
study, document analysis method which is one of the qualitative research methods
is used. Accordingly, in total seven language and literature curricula published
after the proclamation of Republic in Turkey were examined. It was found that no
author and poet names were mentioned in the curricula published before 1950. It
was observed that politically and artistically traditionalist and conservative authors
and poets were mentioned in the language and literature curricula instead of those
who were on the innovative side. It was seen at the end of the study that the most
mentioned authors and poets in the language and literature curricula in Turkey are
Yahya Kemal Beyatlı (20), Mehmet Akif Ersoy (17) ve Necip Fazıl Kısakürek (16)
Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar (15), Ahmet Haşim (15), Namık Kemal (13), Yunus Emre
(11) and Peyami Safa (10) respectively. These authors and poets are artistically or
politically conservative or from the pre-Republican era. |
