Another Before Me
Writers want their works to be unique responses to the world. But to see why a work is unique, it is necessary to shine someone else's light on it. What did he say to us while others were saying this? How did someone else answer the same question? Was he able to substitute his own problem for someone else's problem?
Another Before Me consists of essays that read one author in the light of another. Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment with Kafka's Metamorphosis, Kafka's Letter to My Father with Oguz Atay's "Letter to My Father", Tanpinar's diaries with Dostoyevsky's Notes from the Underground, Benjamin's Passages with Double essays read together with Tanpinar's Bes Sehir. Comparative essays dealing with Peyami Safa's "What is Oriental?" with Cemil Meriç's This Country, and Cemil Meriç's This Country with Edward Said's Orientalism, connected together with a cross-reading perspective.
