    Latmos: A semiotic view on the subject's role in the sustainability of natural and cultural values
    (Semiotica, 2023) Kalelioǧlu, Murat
    Along with the developments in social, scientific, and technological fields, today’s conditions are constantly changing and becoming much more complex. Humans must keep pace with the rapidly changing world, meet requirements, and solve various problems encountered with minimal damage. One of the most crucial obligations is to preserve the delicate balance between nature and culture to make it sustainable for humanity. This study is carried out pursuant to semiotics with an interdisciplinary perspective dealing with the relation of culture with nature and the role of humans, as a subject, in this relation regarding both natural and cultural heritages of Latmos. The study examines the subject’s acts and possible influences on nature, culture, and society in the region. It is seen that there is an uphill battle between two different subjects; the reason for this is a conflict of interest encountered on individual and social planes. On the one hand, one of the subjects is aware of the positive effects of preserving natural and cultural values on society and its future. On the other hand, another subject is unaware of all these or is aware of them but ignores natural and cultural values and destroys them for the sake of self-interest.

    Cross Linguistic Influence: The Case of Adjective and Preposition Collocations
    (Dil Eğitimi ve Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2022) Altuğ, Süleyman Alperen; Önal, Ahmet
    The impact of previously learned knowledge on newly learned knowledge has long been recognized and named as interference. Interference in language is the influence of a previously learned language on any target language. Named as language transfer, this notion may render the learning process harder for the learners and results in fossilization in some cases. Thus, researchers and language teachers should consider this influence and find ways to repair the damages it might cause. In order to provide the field with a study that analyses the effect of cross-linguistic influence in terms of Turkish EFL learners, this study attempts to pinpoint English adjective-preposition collocation that may induce language transfer by utilizing a test that assesses the aforementioned type of collocation knowledge of 291 Turkish EFL learners. The findings have revealed that; indeed, some collocations result from language transfer and a list that contains transfer inducing collocations have been presented.

    NARRATIVE SEMIOTICS AND THE CITY: THE PLACE OF THE CONCEPT OF 'CITY' IN ITALO CALVINO'S INVISIBLE CITIES
    (İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2021) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    The significant element is the subject of enunciation −author− considering literature and practice of writing. The author struggles to combine images via language and generates a semantic universe throughout the process in the system of literature. This universe is generated with systematic sequences of signs. The artwork, which has been qualified as being a specific message, turns into a sign just as Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities (1972) is analyzed by the end of that generative process. The theme of the narrative is the image of happy cities, which have been lost in distorted and unhappy ones. In this way, the subject of enunciation establishes a link between symbolic cities and real cities, and he makes a tangible reference to the realities of urban life. The author of enunciation builds the semantic universe of the narrative on the dichotomy of happy and unhappy cities. These cities, where cultural exchange is realized, are described as a clearing place of desires and memories and are the protagonist of the narrative rather than the decor. Through the study, a semiotic analysis of how the meaning generation process is structured will be carried out by adhering to the theme of the narrative. Also, the place of the ‘city’ concept in Calvino’s narrative will be questioned.

    A narratological analysis of O. Henry's "the ransom of red chief"
    (NALANS: Journal of Narrative and Language Studies, 2020) Büyükkarcı, Orhun; Kalelioğlu, Murat
    The studies within the frame of classical narratology have remarkably contributed to the field of narrative analysis. The significance of the present study is to raise awareness of constructive elements of a narrative using classical narrative analysis. This study aims at investigating character, time and space in O. Henry's "The Ransom of Red Chief", using the narratological terminologies in the analysis. Considering the current situation of narratology as a method of analysis that involves many approaches towards a high number of aspects in a narrative, the study focuses on the essential constructive elements of the story and point of view. The employs the theoretical terminologies offered by classical narratologists. Findings in the study fall into two categories: Narration and narratorial position of the narrator, and formative elements of the story. These categories present three essential formative components, (a) Characters and characterization, (b) space, and (c) time. The data gathered from the findings indicated that O. Henry's achievement might lean on the prevalence of a reliable narrator using discourse time more for the narration of incidents between the characters than that of others in specific types of space with humoristic style as well as situational and verbal irony. This study allows for critical implications both on the readers who wish to understand O. Henry better and on the researchers calling for an increase in the number of narrative studies.

    Is it the door through death what scares us? An analysis of the Cask of Amontillado between semiotics and narratology interface
    (Journal of Narrative and Language Studies, 2021) Büyükkarcı, Orhun
    Semiotics as a comprehensive branch seeks for meaning production process generated by the interrelations of signs, and therefore, may allow examining any discipline. One of those disciplines is literature. The significance of the present study is to draw attention to the analysis of formative structures of a narrative, using analysis tools of literary semiotics and narratology. Accordingly, examining both abstract and concrete fine details of a text, this study aims at investigating how the sense of horror was invoked by Edgar Allan Poe in one of his horror stories, “The Cask of Amontillado”. The methodology of the study, improved by French semiotician, Algirdas Julien Greimas, comprises the analysis of three semantic layers: the discursive, narrative and deep levels. Also, the tools of narratology have been utilized at the discursive level to examine the actors and time in the story, thereby making this an interdisciplinary study. In doing so, the pre-determined semiotic methodology has made it possible to obtain information both on the authorial techniques and the text itself. According to the findings gathered through a semio-narrative analysis, it can be suggested that transformations from beginning to the end of the story regarding characters, space and time have taken place from good to evil, life to death or bright to dark. This further highlights Edgar Allan Poe’s achievements in the creation of horror stories.

    Semiotic analysis of the affective domain of discourse: Projection of emotional transformations
    (2021) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    Literature is one of the most important representations of the artistic field, which is constructed by an extraordinary sequence of verbal and nonverbal signs. Short story is one of the genres of this area in which encountering various kinds of signs is possible through the production process. There are umpteen signs in relation to the attitudes of narrative persons in such stories. In such short story narratives, which are a linguistic message, many indications about the behavior and attitudes of the narrator can be encountered. These indicators are behavioral-emotional indicators that reveal the mood of narrative figures such as joy, enthusiasm, sadness, crying, hugging, and hugging. Nonverbal signs, sometimes, do not make sense alone. However, they are meaningful when they are used in a particular context to support the verbal signs, which displays contribution of the nonverbal signs to the meaning established with the verbal signs. What is significant here is the harmony of using nonverbal signs in conjunction with the verbal ones. If that congruence exists, the produced message becomes stronger and increases its effect; otherwise, the power and impact of the message decrease. Hence, the message becomes meaningless. In this study, how the affective domain of discourse is produced in short stories, and the contribution of nonverbal signs in the construction of meaning and emotional field is investigated. The research is carried out pursuant to the possibilities offered by semiotics of discourse approach, which explores and clarifies the inner world of the subject of enunciation, who produces discourse, the changing mood, and the forms of expressions of the subject in different situations and events in narratives. Throughout the study, affective domain of discourse and the stages of it –affective awakening stage, disposition stage, passional pivot stage, emotion stage, and moralization stage– are examined pursuant to semiotics of discourse approach, elaborated by Jacques Fontanille, who is one of the representatives of Paris School of Semiotics.

    EGITIM FAKÜLTESI ÖGRETIM ELEMANLARININ PEDAGOJIK FORMASYON EGITIMI SERTIFIKA PROGRAMLARINA ILISKIN GÖRÜSLERI (SINOP ÖRNEGI).
    (ICOESS, 2018-04-07) Özdemir, Atilla; Kul Bilsay, Ömür; BÜYÜKKARCI, Orhun
    The profession of teaching is “an area of specialization” as stated in Number 1738 of Constitutive Law of National Education. The graduates from education faculties which have been founded for training of teachers in our country have completed theoretical and practical courses essential for profession of teaching, and have been assigned as teachers. Besides, according to Assignment Regulation of National Education, graduates from higher education can be assigned as teachers on condition that they successfully complete Pedagogic Formation Education which is seen appropriate by Ministry of Education. The Certificate Programs of Pedagogic Formation Education can be initiated at universities having departments of educational sciences with the necessary given permission by Higher Education Institution. When it is taken into consideration that these formation education programs have been run by teaching staff working at education faculties and at departments of educational sciences, the importance for revealing views of teaching staff on these programs is clear. The general purpose of study is to identify the views of teaching staff on Education Programs of Pedagogic Formation. The answers for the below questions have been observed in the study which is conducted within the frame of qualitative research paradigm. “What are your opinions about the Education of Pedagogic Formation?”, “What are the reasons for students taking formation education to participate in these programs?”. The data of study have been gathered by semi-structured interview forms obtained from 35 instructors working at Education Faculty of Sinop University between the years 2017 and 2018. In conclusion of the study, the views of teaching staff have been gathered under two categories as positive and negative. Most of teaching staff have expressed negative opinions for Education of Pedagogic Formation. Amongst these views, the insufficiency of education duration and the increase in the number of unassigned teachers are seen prevalent. On the other hand, according to teaching staff, amongst the reasons for students to attend Pedagogic Formation Education are that the students see profession of teaching as convenient and guaranteed, also as a proper way of increasing their chance to be assigned.

    On Meaning Production Process in Short Stories: A Semiotic Approach to Hwang Sunwon’s ”Cranes”
    (International Journal of Language Academy, 2018-12-15) BÜYÜKKARCI, Orhun; Bulut, Türkay
    Semiotics, as a signification approach, makes it possible to unfold meaning formation process of the works of art. Each work has an idiosyncratic semantic universe created by the logical systematization of signs. The situation is also valid in the literary world. The impactful interaction of semiotics and literature forms the multidisciplinary approach titled literary semiotics. Meaning production process in the narratives can also be examined through the approach. However, the unique characteristic of rules and concepts of the literary semiotics prevent the implementers to apply it to the analysis of the texts which requires penetrating and explaining various meaning layers to be able to reveal the semantic organization and meaning production process of the texts. Therefore, in this study, the aim is to make the application process and the concepts of semiotics in the analysis of the literary texts more comprehensible. To do that, one of the famous Korean short story has been chosen. The focus is to reveal the meaning production process of the story within the scope of literary semiotics. In the light of the findings gathered from semiotic analysis of the short story “Cranes”, it can be suggested that the story was produced on oppositions of war time. These oppositions can be summarized in the form of leaving homeland/remaining in homeland – life/ death – freedom/captivity, or duty/friendship. Also, the oppositions found out in the end of analysis can be accounted as link between the real life and the text itself.

    A Literary Semiotics Approach to the Semantic Universe of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four
    (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2018-12) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    Semiotics can be considered as a well-organized signification journey taken among the pages of the work of art. It requires background knowledge related to the field and its analysis tools, as well as careful reading practices in the text to reach the projected destination after stopping over in certain stations. These stations represent meaning intersections where the meaningful formations are articulated to contribute to the generation of the semantic universe of the text. The presentation of such a fictional universe can be complicated because of the nature of the literary work and the language used. With regards to Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, what makes its fiction precious is the masterful acts of the author in both paradigmatic and syntagmatic dimensions.This book conducts a semiotic analysis in order to unfold the enigmatic semantic organization of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four narrative by penetrating the formative structures at various meaning levels of the text.

    Multidisciplinary Approach to the Texts: Semiotic Analysis of the Process of Meaning Construction in O. Henry’s The Gift of the Magi
    (2018-12) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    Semiotics covers a broad range of subjects since it has an enchanting multidisciplinary frame from language and culture to philosophy and science. Whatever the subject area is, the primary purpose of semiotics is the signification of all types of signs produced by societies. Language and literature which reflect the cultural richness of societies are the critical outcomes of that production process. Those disciplines are firmly relevant to the field of semiotics since they are formed with linguistic and non-linguistic signs. Regarding the analysis of the products, it is considered to gather various methods and combine them rationally to examine the texts with a multifaceted approach. Accordingly, it is determined to analyze the production process of the semantic universe of O. Henry’s The Gift of the Magi in this study. The research has been carried out by taking advantage of the data from narratology and semiotics. Primarily, the text has been evaluated within the scope of narratology; first, it has been attempted to account for the narrative considering the theory of enunciation and then to put forward the basic structure of the text according to Larivaille’s five-staged narrative profile. Subsequently, in the analysis of the text, it has been made use of literary semiotics; at this point, the constituent elements of the narrative in different semantic stratums have been scrutinized as part of Paris School’s semiotics trajectory. In this regard, we had the opportunity to observe the formative elements of the text at the surface and deep levels of meaning and to explain how these elements are articulated with each other to create the fiction of the narrative as a meaningful whole. Greimas’s four-staged narrative programme, actantial schema, and semiotic square have been practiced in the analysis of the formative elements taking place at various meaning levels of the text. As a result, it has been attempted to find answers to the questions of how O. Henry created the semantic universe of the text, and of what the role of culture was in the creation of meaning in this universe.

    Creating Society in Orwell’s 1984: A semiotic analysis of the notion of social transformation
    (Chinese Semiotic Studies, 2018-11) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    In this paper, the idea of constructing a new society in George Orwell’s 1984 is analyzed in the context of the Paris School’s semiotics trajectory. Saussurean legacy, which heavily sheds light on the semiotic conception of the school proposed by Greimas, asserts the significance of dichotomies for signs to gain their meaning. Accordingly, the study is grounded on the desired and non-desired contrariety to make the analysis with the semiotic square meaningful. It is possible to encounter the traces of the proposed idea pertaining to the struggle of forming an ideal society at all levels of meaning, predominantly at the deep level as the proposed idea represents the elementary meaning of the narrative, throughout the text. Considering the approach, desired society gains its meaning in the face of the non-desired one relativistically. Regarding the opposition theory of Saussure, what is good for the Party is not supposed to be good for the Opponents. For this reason, the idea of creating society is on the battleground, as there is an uphill fight between the ruling Party and the Opponents. The formation of desired society is revealed thanks to the semiotic square by focusing on both positive and negative transition processes. The really interesting aspect that we encountered is the vicious unended cycle and the war that will never end between the stated groups within the framework of the ideology/axiology perspective.

    Analysis of Duha Kocaoglu Deli Dumrul Narrative within the Framework of Literary Semiotics
    (Turkish Studies: International Periodical for the Languages, Literature, and History of Turkish or Turkic, 2018-03) Kalelioğlu, Murat; Günay, V. Doğan
    Oral narrative tradition dates back centuries, and it has a great variety of rich culture and colorful motives in literature. Within this cultural wealth, one of the most significant works of art is Dede Korkut narratives accepted as the oldest epic tales belonging to Turks which are the stories that can be shown as the earlier examples of oral literature in Turkish culture. The common point of the tales is to have fantastic expressions. The heroes are Turks, and they usually fight against different actants which can be real or abstract. Moreover, the tales put forward the form of life, moral and cultural values in Turks’ life. Among the tales, one of the most outstanding tales of Dede Korkut is The Story of Delu Dumrul that is read and interpreted in the sense of semiotics. In this study, we handle the struggles and testings of Deli Dumrul as an actant within the context of Paris Semiotic School’s actantial schema. It is a fact that folk tales have some special features such as good is always rewarded while bad is punished. By adhering to the literary semiotics perspective of the school, it is the point of departure of this research to reveal if the situation is valid for this epic tale. At the end of the research, the validity of the general fact belongs to the folk tales stated above is partly actualized in Deli Dumrul narrative. The state of the result in the narrative is solved by taking the support of the supernatural forces and religious values. In this case, the positive ending of the narrative depends on fulfilling the function of both belief and religion positively in the society.

    The Theory of Signification: Semiotic Criticism and Literature
    (International Journal of Language Academy, 2017-12-15) Kalelioğlu, Murat
    As a signification theory, semiotic criticism attracts considerable interest from researchers in different disciplines. Literature is one of the fields where the theory is used for signifying practices. Literary semiotics has emerged as a sub-discipline as a result of the efficient interaction between semiotics and literature. The process of meaning creation in texts can be elucidated through literary semiotics. Semiotics has idiosyncratic rules and concepts in its system to accomplish its goal that bars new researchers from benefiting the theory’s data in penetrating and unfolding different meaning stratums. This paper will argue the critical steps and tools of a systematized semiotic analysis within the process of signification to overcome such obstacles. The relationship between language and literature, literary semiotics and analysis tools will be addressed through the discussion of the historical development of sign studies within the scope of semiotics as a signification theory.
