NOSTALGIC MANNER OF MODERNISM: POETRY OF YAHYA KEMAL

Time, which witnesses change, transformation, a lot positive and negative development; gets away from the starting point in a continuous and fast way is an important phenomenon that leads humanity. People start to question the speed and flow of time after understanding it through the changes that have been experienced. Individual, who realizes the relationship between time-change and speed as he/she gets older, prefers either ignoring or not thinking about the death which is the end of time, or he/she prefers to live in the integrity of past-now and future in order to make time and experience, which is a part of time, continuous. Yahya Kemal preferred the second one throughout his life and he presented his preference in his works. He matured the idea of privacy by interpreting three different time periods through conservative manner and nostalgic feelings. Nostalgia was one of the determinants that creates his poetry both in terms of theme and aesthetics and in terms of message. In this study, how his nostalgic manner affected his poetry is going to be analyzed.
