THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MAN AND NATURE IN TURKISH SHORT STORIES: AN ANALYSIS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF CONCEPTUAL METAPHOR

Lakoff & Johnson (2003) argue that metaphors, a cultural phenomenon, dominate our conceptual system which controls our thoughts, perceptions and actions and explain this case within the framework of ‘Conceptual Metaphor Theory’ and classify metaphors in three types, i.e. structural, orientational and ontological. Metaphor is a type figurative language used frequently in short stories (Shaw, 2014); however it has not been studied under the theory of ‘Conceptual Metaphor’ (Lakoff & Johnson, 2003). Thus, in order to find out how the theory works in short stories, metaphor is studied in two different short stories on the relationship of human beings and nature and aimed to reveal how the relationship between human beings and nature is encoded via metaphors. To this end, Carnations and Tomato Juice (Sait Faik Abasıyanık) and The Story of a Forest (Sabahattin Ali) have been selected.

In The Story of a Forest other than preference to use the ontological metaphor of personification of all the type of conceptual metaphors, the most salient difference is in the conceptualization of nature. In Carnations and Tomato Juice, via the concept of NATURE IS IN CONFLICT WITH HUMAN, the fight between the human and nature and in The Story of a Forest however, with NATURE IS HUMAN conceptual metaphor the connection between them is constructed.
