Thomas Hardy’nin Hayaletli Şiirlerinde Düzene Karşı Düzensizlik

Thomas Hardy’nin şiirlerinde ruh ve hayaletler gibi birçok doğaüstü unsurlar bulunmaktadır. Hardy’nin bu doğaüstü unsurlara samimi bir inancı olmamasına karşın, bu doğaüstü unsurların onun şiirlerinde önemli rolleri vardır. İyi niyetlerle gelmiş olsalar da, davetsiz olarak ölümlü dünyaya gelen hayaletler hatalarını kısa sürede anlarlar. Fani dünyada hiçbir şeyi değiştiremezler. Bu iki dünya arasındaki uyum ancak ve ancak ölümlülerin ve ölmüş olanların kendi dünyalarını sorgulamadan ve araştırmadan olduğu gibi kabul etmeleri ile sağlanabilir.

Order Versus Disorder in Thomas Hardy’s Ghostly Poems

There are a lot of supernatural elements like spirits and ghosts in Thomas Hardy’s poems. The supernatural elements have very significant roles in his poems though he has no credulous faith in supernatural elements. The ghosts that come uninvited to the mortal world realize their mistake, even if they come motivated by the most altruistic of intentions. They cannot change anything in the mortal world. The harmony and the balance between worlds can be realized only if the mortals and immortals accept their lives as they are, without probing or questioning their worlds.
