Turgut Uyar, one of the representatives of the modernist understanding in contemporary Turkish poetry, developed a symbolic and abstract language of poetry like other poets writing in the İkinci Yeni [“The Second New”] and expressed some problems belonging to the individual/subject through this language. The psychological depression experienced by the modern individual, the loneliness in the face of the social life shaped by modern practices and the feelings of alienation are among the problems described in Turgut Uyar’s poems. In response of these feelings, the poet handling a yearning for the nature and the natural as being “self” and the process of “self”-rebuilding in his poems deals with an idea of a strong contradiction between civilization and nature in this context. Turgut Uyar dealing with the relationship between the nature of the individual shaped with modern practices and escaping from modern life as one of the primary subjects of his poem gives wide coverage to criticism of modernity. In this paper, it will be focused on how the contradiction between civilization and nature was handled in the poems of Turgut Uyar, which were collected by him under the name of Dünyanın En Güzel Arabistanı [“The Most Beatiful Arabia in the World”].
