Öğe Alienation in Families and the Breakdown in Children's Educational Process: Ann Tyler's Teenage Wasteland (1983)(Selcuk Univ, Fac Letters, 2022) Koseman, ZennureThis research article highlights that postmodern era after the modern period causes fragmentation because of the existence of alienation and isolation senses in family units and ends up undesirable failure in children's educational process as reflected in American writer Ann Tyler's Teenage Wasteland. Thereby, these are concurrently the basics of modernism that destructs human lives. Similar to T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land, Tyler emphasizes the existence of a dramatic monologue deriving from the disillusionment in the infertile land and the alienation in social living. Tyler specifies the presence of a meaningless life and alienation for children. At the same time, Tyler concerns how parents become unable to deal with their children in their intensive working life. She hints that children become unsuccessful in their educational process due to their parents' intensive working. Therefore, the teenager and his parents have mutual lack of communication in their alienated worlds. A wasteland in the target short story implies having the sense of loneliness which causes failure in children's educational world and rises the disturbance in family units. Accordingly, family members are the victims of their working life and embrace the senses of alienation and isolation in their inner worlds. Therefore, this article will pursue a psychoanalytical consideration in the selected short story.Öğe Malamud's The First Seven Years and the indirect achievement policy(Elsevier Science Bv, 2014) Koseman, ZennureThe implied or indirect thematic basis of Bernard Malamud's The First Seven Years (1950) revolves around how the characters credit individual happiness as their social status rises in their acquisition of material and monetary achievement in the industrial and technological developments. Such an individuality reflects itself especially as the shoemaker father, the main character, in the short story decides to arrange a marriage for his daughter, Miriam, to a schoolboy, Max. Father's decision making gives him great pleasure, yet, the tale concludes differently: not Max but Sobel becomes much more interested in his daughter. This implies that direct circumstances and direct themes in the short story reflect indirect messages and implies the occurence of ironic themes, i.e., what is implied stands for some other meanings in the context.
