Cervantes’in Don Kişot ve Fielding’in Joseph Andrews Adlı Romanlarına Metinlerarası Bir Yaklaşım

Cervantes’in Don Kişot (1605) romanı, birçok sanatçının eseri için ilham kaynağı olmuştur ve bizzat Henry Fielding, Joseph Andrews’un, Don Kişot’un yazarı, Cervantes’in üslubunun etkisi altında kalınarak yazıldığını, romanının kapak sayfasında kabul etmektedir. Buradan hareketle, bu makalede geliştirilen fikirler, Don Kişot ve Joseph Andrews arasındaki tematik ve biçimsel benzerlikleri metinlerarası bir yaklaşımla inceleme çabasıdır. Bu bağlamda, makalede hiciv, parodi, pikaresk roman ve Kişotvari karakter gibi her iki romanda da kullanılan edebi unsurlar karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmektedir ve dolayısıyla bu çalışma, Joseph Andrews’u Don Kişot aracılığıyla okumanın ve bu romanlar arasında karşılaştırma yapmanın, okuyucuya romanda yeni anlayışlar bulma olasılığını sağlayacağı fikrini öne sürmektedir.

An Intertextual Approach to Cervantes’ Don Quixote and Fielding’s Joseph Andrews

Cervantes’ novel Don Quixote (1605) has been an inspiration for the works of many artists, and Henry Fielding himself on the title page of his novel accepts that Joseph Andrews (1742) was written in imitation of the manner of Cervantes, the author of Don Quixote. Moving from this point, the ideas developed in this paper are an attempt to study the thematic and formal similarities between Don Quixote and Joseph Andrews with an intertextual approach. In this respect, this article explores such literary elements as satire, parody, picaresque novel, and the Quixotic character employed both in Don Quixote and Joseph Andrews comparatively and this study, hence, argues that reading Joseph Andrews through Don Quixote and a comparison between them will provide the reader with a possibility of new insights about the text.
