| Abstract
|
:
|
Turkish cinema has produced very few examples of fantasy fiction genre films since its beginning in 1914 except for the 1970s Yeşilçam era. The first film ever to be made in Turkey by a Turkish filmmaker (Fuat Uzkinay) is credited as <i>Ayastefanos’taki Rus Abidesinin Yikilişi (The Destruction of the Russian Monument at Ayastefanos)</i> (Panaite, 8), which is an actuality film similar to Lumiere brothers’ shorts. The lack of recognition of fantasy fiction in Turkish film history and literature can be attributed to the social and political movements along with the modernization process in the republic’s history to migration, alienation, and the contradictory Turkish identity. A survey of Turkish novels reveals a parallel lack of fantasy fiction in literature. In analyzing this lack of fantasy fiction films in literature, Veli Ugˇur concludes that it is the late modernization process (he claims starts with early 2000’s) within the Turkish social, cultural sphere that influenced this almost complete non-existence of the genre.
