THE POETICS OF THE FANTASTIC IN BARIŞ MÜSTECAPLIOĞLU’S NOVEL “THE COUNTRY OF SHAMANS”
Abstract
In the article it is proved that the poetics of the fantasy in B. Müstecaplıoğlu’s novel “The Country of Shamans” (2012) forms a complex set of artistic means, among which the central place is occupied by the speech-genre lexical units connected with the notion “unreal”. These lexemes make up two intra-textual paradigms, revealing different aspects of the fantastic - with positive (shamans, Divine powers, Good) and negative (magic, state, Evil) connotations. Fantastic poetics is supplemented by an unusual plot, a phantasmagoric chronotope, and subjective (character-based) oppositions. The subjective distinctions (personal and group) are supported by the provision of subjects with supernatural properties and by modeling of sublanguages.
