Culture, History and Consciousness in DeLillo’s White Noise: The Aesthetics of Cyberspace
Anahtar Kelimeler:
White Noise- Don DeLillo- Walter Benjamin- Frank Lentricchia- cyberspaceÖz
Bu makale, Don DeLillo’nun White Noise adlı eserini Walter Benjamin ve Frank Lentricchia’nın kuramsal yaklaşımları çerçevesinde incelemektedir. Televizyon ve bilgisayar gibi medya araçlarının kimliği ve bilinci şekillendiren bir sanal alan oluşturduğu ileri sürülmektedir. Bu aracılı gerçekliğin, postmodern parçalanmış kimliklerin ötesinde bireysel ve kolektif bilinç biçimlerinin birlikte var olmasına olanak sağladığı gösterilmektedir. Anlatı yapısı ve karakter ilişkileri üzerinden yapılan analiz, romanın çağdaş kaos içinde bir bütünlük olasılığı sunduğunu ve tarihsel ile zamansız boyutların kesiştiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
