Abstract:

Socialist-realism emerges as a reflection of Marxism in literature, and the tenets of the movement are determined by the final declaration of the First Soviet Writers Congress in Moscow in 1934, read by Maxim Gorky. Depending on the different political and social conditions in Turkey, within a short period of time Socialist-realism finds its reflection in Turkey and progresses differently from its development Russia. For this reason, Socialist-realism makes progress within the framework centering the problems of villages and peasants. Sabahattin Ali is one of the well-known Socialist-Realist writers of Turkish literature. The main point that distinguishes him from other Socialist-realist writers is directly related to his success in creating more vivid heroes by not adhering to the stereotypical principles of Social-realism. Sabahattin Ali, whose works are generally based on the oppressive-oppressed conflict under the influence of social realism, prefers to give the social message of this conflict through symbols in many of his stories. In this study, the story of "Ayran" which was written by Sabahattin Ali in 1938, has been analyzed according to the elements of conflict that are symbolized within the principles of Socialist-Realism.
