    Master Thesis
    Transfeminizmin Duygulanımsal Çevresi: Türkiye'nin Güncel Alternatif Tiyatrosunda Cinsiyete Meydan Okumak
    (2024) Yanıkcan, Ahmet Berkem; Akın, Afife İdil; Altınay, Rüstem Ertuğ
    Trans-dışlayıcı feminist söylemlerle birlikte artan transmizojini ve transfobinin giderek görünür hale gelmesi, Türkiye'nin güncel alternatif tiyatrosundaki trans temsillerinin karmaşık duygusal manzaralarını anlamak için incelikli bir duygulanım analizini de gerektirmektedir. Duygulanım kuramına temellendirilmiş bu çalışma, trans performanslarında kullanılan stratejileri ele almaktadır. Artan transfobi ve muhafazakâr politikalar arasında alternatif tiyatro, ötekileştirilmiş seslerin direniş ve yaratıcı dışavurumları için mühim bir alan olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışma, trans deneyimlerinin tasvirini sınırlandıran ve stereotipleri destekleyen melankoli, üzüntü ve acı gibi duygulanımların ana akım anlatılarda önceliklendirilmesini inceleyerek Türkiye'deki güncel alternatif tiyatroda yaygın olan melodramatik unsurları araştırmaktadır. Esmeray Özadikti ve Seyhan Arman gibi sanatçıların kilit performanslarını yakın okumak, transfeminist sanatçılar tarafından kullanılan mizah, ironi, öfke ve direnç gibi, hâkim anlatıları bozguna uğratan çeşitli duygulanımsal ifade biçimlerini belirginleştirmektedir. Bu analiz trans duygulanımını bireysel bir deneyimin ötesinde geniş kapsamlı güç dinamikleriyle şekillenen sosyal ve kültürel bir olgu olarak incelemektedir. Sara Ahmed'in 'duygulanım ekonomisi' ve 'duyguların sosyalliği' kavramlarına dayanan bu çalışma, Türkiye alternatif tiyatrosunda duyguların nasıl dolaşımda olduğuna odaklanmaktadır. Arşiv araştırmasıyla desteklenen bu çalışma, duygulanım kuramı, performans çalışmaları, kuir ve trans çalışmalarını bir araya getirmektedir. Böylelikle, trans temsillerinin daha dikkatli anlaşılmasını ve trans performanslara içkin olan duygulanımsal ve politik karmaşıklıkların daha kapsamlı tanınmasını savunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu yaklaşım, indirgeyici anlatılara meydan okuyup trans yaşamlarını ve deneyimlerini oluşturan çeşitli duygusal boyutları vurgulamakta ve sonuç olarak da Türkiye'nin sosyopolitik bağlamında trans görünürlüğü ve temsiliyeti etrafında şekillenen söylemleri güçlendirmektedir.

    Large-Scale Collaborative Research Projects in Theatre and Performance Studies: Resources, Politics, and Ethics in the Margins of Europe During the Covid-19 Pandemic
    (The University of Kansas, Department of Theatre and Dance, 2021) Altinay, Rüstem Ertuğ; Çınar, İlyas Deniz; Karabekir, Jale; Tosun, Gamze; Yıldırım, Şeyda Nur
    Staging National Abjection: Theatre and Politics in Turkey and Its Diasporas is a research project funded by the European Research Council’s Starting Grants program. Building on the initial insights of the project, the authors study collaboration as a performative process. They analyze the promises and risks involved in large-scale collaborative research projects and how they unfold in the context of Turkish academia and the COVID-19 pandemic. The authors examine how they manage their responsibilities to fellow members of their research team, to other members of Turkish academia, to the minoritarian communities they work with, and to the broader public who funds their research. Finally, they discuss how they work toward collective care and empowerment while negotiating the demands of globalized neoliberal academia as well as the oppressive sociopolitical environment in Turkey and explore the limits of their scholarly and ethical endeavors.

    The Not So New Turkish Woman: a Statistical Look at Women in Two Istanbul Neighborhoods
    (2009) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Güler, Fazil
    Using survey data gathered from nearly 400 women living in two Istanbul neighborhoods this article explores issues of work education family and feminism. In addition to presenting the findings we argue that there is a continued gap between the ideal of the Republican woman and the actual practices of this group of Turkish women. The picture of these Turkish women that emerged from this survey is that of women still largely in the grips of an ideal born in the early days of the Turkish Republic. However it also became clear that there also exist rifts between belief and practice in the lives of these women: they seem to believe in many facets of the Republican woman while at the same time the practices they engage in belie some aspects of this belief. Ultimately it seems that in some respects they are in the process of constructing their own idea of a Turkish woman while at the same time some aspects of these women's lives remain deeply bound by traditional notions of gender.

    The Limits of Cis Compassion: The sad trans experience and its others in contemporary Turkish theatre
    (PERFORMANCE RESEAR, 2024) Yanıkcan, Ahmet Berkem
    In the last decade, dramatic literature and theatre productions about trans women have become a significant part of Turkey's alternative theatre scene. These performances, pioneered by trans women, have been both celebrated and appropriated, with cis theatre makers often reshaping them within melodramatic conventions. Since the political ramifications of these theatrical productions are intricately linked to their narrative styles and genres, the employment of melodramatic portrayals presents emergent challenges for trans individuals, thereby culminating in a nuanced ‘transploitation’ of their narratives.While the melodramatic representations tell the stories of trans women's suffering and often end with the main character's death, the playwrights, actors, and the rest of the cast are almost always cisgender. Despite their popularity as well as aesthetic, social, and political significance, these plays have received limited scholarly attention. Moreover, the limited scholarship and public debates on them tend to treat their affective politics uncritically and even celebrate it. In the context of Turkey's liberal identity politics, these plays about trans women appear to challenge cis-heteropatriarchal oppression but ultimately reinforce cisnormative perspectives.In contrast, one-actor plays by transfeminist performers and playwrights challenge these melodramas. Characterized by themes of hope and resistance, transfeminist performances offer a contrast to mainstream portrayals of trans experience. These plays challenge the prevalent sadness in mainstream narratives about trans women, offering more empowering and representative portrayals. This juxtaposition sheds light on how sadness facilitates the experience of compassion, which both legitimizes and limits the performances about trans women.
