Abstract
With its culture, aesthetics, mythology, art and nature, the Mediterranean has offered significant opportunities to Turkish literature. The most important author to have perceived the Mediterranean with these aspects and fictionalized it within a poetic discourse is indisputably the Fisherman of Halicarnassus. While reading the Fisherman of Halicarnassus, archipelago is seen as a functional concept. Spreading through the Fisherman’s complete works, this concept, in a way, is the spirit of nature, aesthetics and bowl of civilization of the Mediterranean. For the Fisherman, archipelago is a beautified and interiorised space. Archipelago, which the Fisherman has centralized within the scope of the thesis of being Mediterranean, is spinning around an optical metaphor and becomes the founder of a poetic image by lightening “the sixth continent”, the Mediterranean basin. In this paper, with reference to these perspectives, the paths of the archipelago reflected in the Fisherman’s works will be examined, considering their different aspects.
