Abstract

Aysel's Tragedy or the Depression of the Intellectual Woman in the Novel "Olmeye Yatmak" (Lie Back to Death)

In the novel Olmeye Yatmak by Adalet Agaoglu, the thematic issues revolve about the self-questioning of intellectuals during a certain period of time. The heroin of the novel, Aysel, is questioning herself in term of guilt erosed by a conflict between duty and her personal ideals. Aysel questions her nihilistic idealism which is also the denial of the individual. According to her, the individual must be herself, and should be herself to determine her belief and duties. The way to become an individual involves a commitment to personal experience and having the personal right of choice. In the novel, Aysel whose duly it is to promote the principles of Republic while struggling to become an individual, is being questioned under the light of Aysel's attempt to commit suicide in a hotel room.
