literature, society and sociology



Literature is the artistic expression of culture, the events that take place in society, the fractures; the era it has been an undeniable fact that the theme of thoughts is a reflection. As a social being it is also known that the person seen is in shopping, interacting with the society in which he lives. Literature social and cultural as much as thought is the embodiment of emotion in language for the purpose of art indicates the environment (Alver, 2006, p. 11) .



The transformative power of the relationship between literature and society, which is connected through language, is obvious. Sociology takes scientific methods behind it and Decrees that “the origin of human communities, which keeps people together reasons, common ways of behavior of communities and characteristics that distinguish them from different communities stand on it"an while, besides being a field, looking at the fractures in history, the traces of dynamic life when trying to make an inference; a conclusion based on the inferences he made about the socio-cultural field he tries to reach out (Tüzer, 2019, p. 19).



Although the society of literature is not in a structure that directly tells the truth, society and literature are natural to each other it is two sides that affect as. "Because the environment in which literature is formed, developed and described is completely it is society" (Alver, 2006, p. 12) . According to Köksal Alver, the Decoupled link between literature and society is two it will bring benefits. First, “an attitude and situation in literature point directly to social reality maybe, attribution to social reality can be accepted” (Alver, 2006, p. 12).



By John Hall for Alver according to him, the second benefit is that “the social environment helps to understand the literary text” (Alver, 2006, p. 12) . Orhan Kemal's treatment of cotton workers while Oguz Atay's treatment of the individual in the city is social it can serve as an example of the reflection of the environment on literature. The artist's personality "is based on the biopsychological body, soul structure; the living of the natural (of course) environment that surrounds itself take from all inanimate beings; various cultural patterns of the social environment, institutions, organization go up to their (organizations), their values, according to Kösemihal, who said that they are all under the influence of” the artist's work can also be evaluated in this context (Kösemihal, 1967, p. 5).



The relationship of literature with life the inseparability of literature with society is “a life that has taken the form of words, writing, or it can also be explained by the fact that it is a lived oral or written form of expression” (Kösemihal, 1967, p. 8) . Sociological social in the emergence of the novel genre, which is seen as a child of the Enlightenment when the dimensions are considered, we can see the integrity of society and literature. The idea that art and literature reflect society is not a new idea. According to Socrates, the poet is a when it is reflective; according to Stendhal, a novel is a mirror that is walked along the road (Moran, 2007, p. 18). Society the fact that a person in it puts out a book using the aesthetic possibilities of language; this person growing up in the conditions of value, culture and conditions in the society in which it is located; the work, the book society this mutual relationship between society and man, due to the fact that he is in contact with a reader, 19. has found its place in the field of science in the century.
