Safahat’ta Hâl(Durum) Eklerinin İşlevsel Olarak İncelenmesi
The Examination of Case Suffixes in Safahat Functionally

Summary/Abstract: Safahat is the novel of Mehmet Akif Ersoy, one of the most important individuals in Turkish intellectual and literature history. With its literal meaning, Safahat implies “phases / scenes from life,” which means the reflection of the life. Mehmet Akif created a statement for the society he lived in with the language of that society. It is clear that the political, social and economic state of that era lied behind this situation. There is a portrayal mainly with a critical point of view in the novel and the solution suggestions for the detected problems were made with the language of the society. While Akif used both written language and vernacular, he used all aspects of Turkish language. Thus, Sahafat has become one of the most important document of Turkish language. In this study, the chosen texts from Safahat were examined in terms of case suffixes in Turkish syntax. While the texts were chosen to be examined, attention was paid to their language properties and content. The texts were taken from Ertuğrul Düzdağ’s work “Safahat Eski ve Yeni Harflerle Tenkidli Neşir” (Safahat, Critical Publication with Old and New Letters).
