Özet:

Hegemonic masculinity is one of Connell's four types of masculinity. Connell says that the men who make up this category, women, and other men's categories are also under pressure. This group of men with the lowest number of male categories is in a constant renewal, adapting to the changes that the system needs. Hegemonic masculinity exists by re-producing and re-producing by social institutions. Studies on the representation of hegemonic masculinity, in the media and educational fields, have recently gained importance. The school is the second institution where children socialize after the family. The influence of the school on the personality, emotional and mental perceptions of the children is unquestionable because it covers a large part of the child’s life, and because there is also an educational foot along with the teaching foot. Hegemonic masculinity is produced by social institutions. In schools with a systematic educational model for a social institution and children, hegemonic masculinity is re-produced by means such as teaching materials, teacher attitudes and behaviors. This study aims to reveal the reflections of hegemonic masculinity in high school Turkish lessons. The study listed the characteristics obtained from the definitions of hegemonic masculinity in literature, and the visibility of these characteristics in the studied texts was studied through the male characters. The research has found that some characteristics of the hegemonic male image are represented by male characters in the texts.
