Abstract


Oğuz Kağan’da Derin Ekoloji Açısından “Doğa ve İnsan”

Throughout history, spanning from ancient epochs to contemporary eras, humanity has consistently perceived both animate and inanimate entities as objects necessitating some degree of regulation, manipulation, and governance within the various contexts they inhabit. This inclination towards dominance has notably intensified with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, as humans increasingly exploited their surroundings for personal gain, often disregarding the inherent agency and entitlement to existence of other entities within the cosmos. This anthropocentric disposition has precipitated ecological imbalances, pollution, and the specter of extinction, extending its repercussions beyond terrestrial confines into the realm of outer space and, conceivably, onto extraterrestrial bodies. Ecocriticism emerges as a counterforce against humanity's anthropocentric ethos and its resultant ramifications. Central to this dissent is the contention that our planet constitutes an interconnected entirety, inclusive of all its constituents. Environmental Criticism, an interdisciplinary framework, posits that the fabric of existence fosters direct or indirect interrelations among its elements. Consequently, human beings cannot divorce themselves as mere agents, relegating other denizens of the Earth to subordinate roles requiring oversight and dominion. Deep Ecology, a facet of Ecocriticism, serves as a literary conduit advocating for the imperative of communal coexistence and the unconditional acceptance of all entities inhabiting Earth's domain, transcending distinctions of gender, race, class, and species. Primarily concerned with the literary milieu, Deep Ecology underscores the perspectives embedded within extant and prospective literary works, contemplating humanity's role within the cosmic narrative and its portrayal therein. This study investigates the potential integration of written and oral folk narratives from ancient cultural traditions into educational frameworks aimed at fostering environmental consciousness. In addition to contemporary literary works foregrounding ecosystem awareness, Deep Ecology provides a critical lens through which to analyze and elucidate pertinent themes. Specifically, the perspective of the Oghuz Turk, characterized by a reverence towards virtually all animate and inanimate entities, transcending human-centric boundaries, is examined within the purview of Deep Ecology, with particular emphasis on the Oghuz Kagan Epic.
