    The representation of truth on human body in Ancient Greek tragedy
    (İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi, 2020) Abalıoğlu, Eylem; Keskin, Ferda
    ABSTRACT: How is it possible that, despite the fact that The Greek Tragedy was merely generated in around hundred years, is still embraced even today by contemporary dramaturgists, directors, poets, authors and is rewritten and reproduced again and again? How shall we explain the fact that it expresses all the dilemmas of our daily lives via reaching today in a timeless manner far from centuries long distance and still smiles towards us? If the works of art are connected to a historical context as all the other social products do, if their births, structures and meanings are within this context and shall only be understood over this context, while the necessary conditions for their production is vanisned, while the social life styles have evolved and went into an extreme change at all levels, how shall we explain these Works of arts are still surviving and they are able to still tell us something? Tragedy in social life that consider totally different ethical and legal rules and polytheistic way of living than we have today was questioning the position of human in an indefinite, divine, natural and social world that is fragmentized with discrepancies where no rules have decisively been established, one god is in conflict with another god, one law is in conflict with another law and justice is translocated and transformed even when the action is still in progress, From this aspect, it would not be too wrong to claim that tragedy is a timeless textual structure since it treats the uncertainties, dilemmas and interrogations that do exist in human nature in a more realistic way than today. In this thesis, I tried to research over the limit and limitlessness concepts that are to be counted on the center of Ancient Greek thought, while investigated how the search for truth in tragedies are represented in linguistic and physical body layers. I went deeper in the context of the limits of physical body and psuche (????) and the limitlessness of the creative capacity of human and the representation of body related ways of expression depending on the paradox of these two in tragedies. I also emphasized the human desires that are subjects to tragedies such as violence, death, salvation from the body and the desire of becoming a god on layers of texts, form and staging.
