Abstract
Postmodern roman, biçimsel deneyselliğin ön plana çıktığı bir roman türüdür. Bu nedenledir ki, edebiyat ve toplum arasındaki ilişkiyi eserin içeriği ile kuran edebiyat sosyolojisi çalışmaları, postmodern romanı sosyolojik olarak değerlendirebilmek üzere yetersiz kalmışlardır. Postmodern metinlerin analizinde, edebiyat sosyolojisi Dr. çalışmalarının yerini edebiyat tarihi, karşılaştırmalı edebiyat ve kültürel incelemeler gibi alanlar almıştır. Dolayısıyla bu metinlerin toplumsal olanla bağı eksiktir. Bu çalışmada postmodern romanın biçimsel özelliklerini sosyolojik olarak anlaşılır kılmak hedeflenmiştir. Bu maksatla biçimin nasıl bir toplumsal gerçekliği temsil ettiği gösterilmek istenmiş; roman ve toplumsal gerçeklik arasındaki ilişki tarihsel olarak betimlenmiş ve sonuç olarak, yüzyıllar içinde toplumsal gerçeklik anlayışı değiştikçe romanın kurgusal öğelerinin farklı biçimsel görünümlere büründüğü gözlenmiştir. 18. yüzyıl romanı kolektif geleneksel bir anlayışın yerine bireysel gerçekçiliği, 19. yüzyıl romanı, edebi eser ve dışsal gerçeklik arasında birebir bir ilişki olmasını arzulayan gerçekçi bir gerçekçiliği benimsemiş; 20. yüzyıl modernist romanı ise parçalanan gerçeklik anlayışı sonucu bireyin içsel dünyasını temsil etmiştir. Denilebilir ki farklı gerçeklik anlayışları ve bu anlayışların farklı temsilleri söz konusudur. Postmodern roman da toplumdaki yeni gerçekliğin bir ürünü, edebiyat alanındaki yansımasıdır. Makro teorilerin yerini mikro teorilerin aldığı, hakikat anlayışının parçalandığı, rasyonel öznenin yadsındığı, tekil düşüncelerin yerini çoğulluğa bıraktığı yeni bir gerçeklik anlayışıdır bu. Tanrının ya da insanın merkeze alındığı kendinden önceki düşünme biçimlerinden farklı olarak öznenin dil olarak belirdiği bir gerçeklik anlayışıdır.
The postmodern novel is a type of literature in which the formal experimentalism comes into prominence. This is why studies of sociology of literature, which focus with regard the content of literary works on the the relation between literature and society, have been inadequate of analyzing postmodern novel sociologically. In analyzing of postmodern texts, literary history, comperative literature and cultural studies replace studies of sociology of literature. Therefore these texts have not a special connection with society. This study aims to make understandable the formal characteristics of postmodern novel sociologically. For this purpose, it is demonstrated what kind of social reality the form represents; the relation between novel and social reality is described historically and as a result it is observed that the elements of fiction in a novel give way to different formal appearences depending on changes in social reality. The 18th-century novel adopted individual reality instead of traditional reality; 19th-century novel accepted an objective reality that provides to have the most efficacious relation between literary work and exterior reality; 20th-century novel represented individual’s inherent world as a result of fragmented perception of reality. It is said that there are various reality concepts and their various represantations. So postmodern novel is a product of new reality in the society and is a literary reflection of society. This is a new reality concept that microteories are in place macro-teories, the perception of truth is fragmentized, rational individual is ignored, singular thougts give place to plurality. This is also a reality concept that the subject is reborned as language with the difference of previous ways of thinking that God or human are in central.
