Existential Sources of the Love of Humanity and Human Value in the Sociology of Yasar Kemal’s Novels

Summary/Abstract: While working on many subjects on human, society and environment, Yasar Kemal also successfully built the female and male novel characters who act in accordance with his intellectual attitude. Yasar Kemal was an intellectual that reflected in his works a discourse of justice, peace, equality, freedom, democracy and human rights and through his characters, he opened a path for a discussion about these phenomena. When we consider this aspect of the novel universe, novel characters’ worlds of thought and their viewpoints of people, society and environment are built on love for human, human value and tolerance concepts. Human is the highest value in Yasar Kemal’s novels. It is also possible to say that Yasar Kemal also successfully created a novel universe in which the evil is exhibited and critically criticized. While examining the existential resources on which the love for humanity and human value are based in the sociology of Yasar Kemal’s novels, in which philosophically good and evil are juxtaposed, this study also aims to create an insight for the democratic function of his novels.
