Temeli Oğuz Türkçesine dayanan Türkiye Türkçesi ağızları sadece Anadolu sahasında değil, Anadolu sınırlarını aşarak Azerbaycan, Kafkaslar, İran, Irak, Suriye, Kırım, Kıbrıs, Rumeli, Batı Trakya, Kosova, Bulgaristan ve Romanya gibi ülkelerde de varlığını sürdürmektedir. Oğuz Türkçesinin bu kadar geniş bir sahaya yayılmış olması, Anadolu’ya muhtelif tarihlerde doğudan ve kuzeyden gelen diğer Türk topluluklarının göçleri, Osmanlılar döneminde sıkça uygulanan iskân ve yer değiştirme politikaları bu sahada ağız çeşitlenmelerine neden olmuştur. Aynı durum Doğu grubu ağızlarının yayılım gösterdiği Doğu ve Güneydoğu Anadolu bölgelerini içine alan sahada da çeşitli ağız dallanmalarına zemin hazırlamıştır. Karahan’ın Türkiye Türkçesi ağızlarının sınıflandırılmasında Doğu grubu ağızları olarak adlandırdığı ve bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturan ağızlar, ses bilgisi ve şekil bilgisi bakımından detaylı olarak incelenmiştir.

The aim of this book is to shed light on dystopia within the circle of twentieth century literature by analysing the development of totalitarianism and its detrimental effects, such as dehumanisation and social unrest that shattered the unity of society in three basic forms as reflected in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies (1953), George Orwell’s Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). Thus, it explores the beginning of totalitarianism resulted from an inborn instinctive drive as reflected in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies (1953) first, then its formation and rise in George Orwell’s Animal Farm (1945), then finally the ill effects of it in both society and in individuals in Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). Totalitarianism, together with “Fascism”, in the twentieth century can be confined to the period between 1922 and 1975. It starts with Mussolini; is followed by Hitler and Stalin, then ends with the death of Franco. It was during the rule of totalitarians that all ideals promising peace were abused to claim the rule, terror and fear factors were resorted to secure a totalitarian power at the expense of millions of deaths, torture and social unrest. In these novels, William Golding and George Orwell criticise how totalitarianism is established, and maintained by fear, manipulation and terror in the twentieth century.

In the perusal of the Irish literature, we see that the strength of this conservative instinct has been of the greatest service in the preservation of the early monuments in their purity. So much is this the case, that in many tales the most flagrant contradictions appear, the author or scribe being unwilling to depart at all from that which he found handed down. For instance, in the “Great Breach of Murthemney,” we find Laeg at one moment killed, and in the next riding black Shanglan off the field. From this conservatism and careful following of authority, and the littera scripta, or word once spoken, I conclude that the distance in time between the prose tale and the metrical originals was very great, and, unless under such exceptional circumstances as the revolution caused by the introduction of Christianity, could not have been brought about within hundreds of years. Moreover, this same conservatism would have caused the tales concerning heroes to grow very slowly once they were actually formed. All the noteworthy events of the hero’s life and his characteristics must have formed the original of the tales concerning him, which would have been composed during his life, or not long after his death.
