Abstract
(1960). The poem consists of six units with four lines for each. The theme is the hindering of the self's desires due to individual and social reasons. In the units, the sweeping of the self's desires into subconsciousness is told stage by stage in accordance with psychoanalitic data and the hindering factors are presented through their justifications. We hear the self (ego and super ego) speak to reveal the conflict experienced with an omniscient point of view and refer to the traditional morals of the society as the ultimate hinderer. The id (sub-self) is claimed to have been imprisoned in the “lower room”, through which the poem acquires a tangible aspect, and through scientific facts, the poem is positioned within a poetical frame. Containing some elements of harmony in a structural unity, the poem bears the traces of Necatigil from his intellectual background and linguistic style. In this context, it is possible to evaluate the poem Töre in line with other poems of Necatigil where the themes of loneliness, being introverted, being unable to realize individual and social desires are frequently told in an implied way.
