The book provides a dialectical narrative for the emergence and development of the Turkish novel in order to highlight the genre?s critical role within the modernization project. In doing so, it also delineates the changing forms the novel assumes in the Turkish context from a platform for new literature to a manifestation of crisis in the face of totalizing rationality. Vis-a-vis modernization's engagement with rationality, The Turkish Novel and the Quest for Rationality reveals unexplored ways of conceptualizing the development of the genre in non-western contexts. 410 0$aTextxet: Studies in Comparative Literature$v91. 606 $aTurkish fiction 606 $aModernism (Literature) 606 $aRationalism in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTurkish fiction. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aRationalism in literature. 676 $a894.3533 700 $aHemmat$b Ayse Ozge Kocak$01038795 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910494714103321 996 $aThe Turkish Novel and the Quest for Rationality$92460593 997 $aUNINA
