Türk ve Amerikan animasyonlarına ekofeminist bir yaklaşım

This thesis aims to analyze and compare four Turkish and four American animations from an ecofeminist perspective. The selected animations from Turkey are Kral Şakir Cumburlop (2021), Pırıl (2019-), Rafadan Tayfa 2: Göbeklitepe (2019), Kötü Kedi Şerafettin (2016) while the animations from the US are Frozen (2013), Avatar: The Last Airbender (2005-2008), She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018-2020), Invincible (2021-). Each selected animation is given an age range for the purposes of this research and these ranges indicate which animation pair is compared in terms of ecofeminism concepts. Close reading method is conducted to each animated work with the help of the Bechdel Test as well as the Maisy Test. Regardless of its location or which platform it gets aired, animations have been an important part of people's entertainment. A concept as relevant and needed as ecofeminism should be researched within animation and its' related concepts in order to show animation audiences the feminist and ecologically positive world views.
