Paradox in Turkish (theory and analysis)

Paradox, fed by philosophy, is a term that has been the subject of many fields of science such as logic, mathematics, economics and literature. Paradox is when a proposition or statement turns out to be false when accepted as true, and true when considered false. Paradox, contains contradiction and contradiction together. Paradoxical expressions in which this contrast and contradiction dominate, especially in religious poems, are the words that the poet voluntarily utters because of the love they feel for Allah. Although the spoken words may seem meaningless on the surface, paradoxical expressions have a deep treasure of meaning. While in logical paradoxes, the opposition and contradiction of two sentences enter into a vicious circle, in paradoxical expressions, revealing the meaning beyond the contradiction arising from the contradictions shows that the paradox expresses a meaningfulness. Therefore, in paradoxical narratives, the contradiction is only apparent, while the meaning is deep. Paradox, which shows that meaninglessness also expresses a meaningfulness, is a literary art and style that is preferred due to the inadequacy and limitation of the human language of the poet or writer, unlike other literary arts. Keywords: paradox, opposition, contradiction, oxymoron, paradoxical expressions, types of paradox, paradoxical expressions in poetry.
