EXPRESSED SOCIAL EVENTS THROUGH ART

Entitled to receive the "Mediterranean Award" with his story titled ‘’Adını Unuttum (I Forgot Your Name)’’,  having a topic freely chosen, Dr. Emrah Tüncer, Faculty Member at Istanbul Gelisim University said, ‘’ I took part in this competition with a travel story on my path to understand Kaygusuz Abdal, and I am very happy that it was awarded. The general topic in literature, which is defined as the art of expressing aesthetically the events occurring in the society, the thoughts of people, their feelings and dreams through language, is human. In this sense, it often deals with human beings and their relationships with other people. Further, novels and stories provide information about the social, political and economic conditions of the period in which the event took place. That's why I think that importance should be attached to read literary texts and write in that genre in the academia.”
