Dynamics of the muhavere genre in the humor magazines of the Second Constitutional Era

This thesis study focuses on the reflections of the "freedom" atmosphere that emerged after 1908 in a literary medium by examining the heterogeneity of literary genres and discourses in humor magazines during the Second Constitutional Era. The main purpose of the study is to reveal how a line of dialogue is established on three different grounds (muhavere genre, interaction between publications and reader-writer relations) and to draw attention to how discourses and ideas are expressed. This analysis shows that there is a common heterogeneity in genres in all three magazines. However, this heterogeneity manifests itself in different ways in each magazine with the preference of different genres. Rather than a certain and stable dialogic discourse or a continuous polyphony in magazines, discourse and narrative styles vary among narratives.
