Inhalt: In this lecture, we will explore the relationship between fiction and history in modern Turkish literature. Starting with a theoretical discussion on the poetics of the historical novel, we will then navigate our way through a sample of representative historical novels from the 19th to the 21st centuries to see how Turkish authors have grappled with their own history in different ways – as nationalists, educators, innovators, visionaries, ideologists, questioners, or entertainers. Our focus will be – though not exclusively – on the depiction of the Ottoman centuries and the early Republic. The Lecture will be in English.
