Abstract (EN)

Oğuz Atay and Franz Kafka are two significant authors in literary world. A specific work of a writer sometimes shines among other works of the writer. Oğuz Atay's The Disconnected and Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis come forward by the means of narrative among their all works. However, all the works of these two major writers are written up to figure out and give meaning of the existence of the human being no matter whether they have came forward or not. Fundamentally, to comprehend the human being, it has always been the principal problem. In this point, most of the scientific disciplines have been assisting to literature to comprehend and interpret the human being. Psychoanalysis, which is one of the sub-topics of the pschology discipline, examines the behaviours, dreams and fantasies of human being as well as considering his subconscious, by trying to solve the puzzle called as "human being". As far as we can figure out from his diaries, Oğuz Atay is a writer that had always a struggle and problems with life itself; but also in the meantime, he has been constantly in low spirits, as he is unable to solve the paradox of life. On the other hand, since the beginning, Franz Kafka has always been the pen that draws out the struggle and the reproach of the human being, who has been in the "shadow of the father figure" and trying to get away from that agony. Their struggle and problematic relationship with life get between their lines perfectly by being reflected with their fictional characters and narratives. Literature and pschology, two major scientific disciplines, which intends to comprehend the human being walk hand in hand to reveal the delirium hidden between the lines of the narratives.
