ÇİZGİ FİLMLERİN KÜLTÜREL ÖGELER AÇISINDAN İNCELENMESİ: "ALPMAN" ÖRNEĞİ.

Culture is the whole of tangible and intangible elements such as values, beliefs, food habits, social lives, visual arts, proverbs and idioms that distinguish one society from another and are shared by the people living in that society. Cultural elements are transmitted from generation to generation in various ways, including cartoons. In this context, the cartoon named "Alpman", which is one of the cultural cartoons, was discussed. In the cartoon examined within the scope of the study, answers are sought to the questions of which elements of Turkish culture are conveyed, which cultural elements are processed more and how these elements are depicted. In line with the purpose and questions determined in the study, in-depth interview method as well as mixed analysis in which content and discourse analysis methods are used together are used. As a result of the study, it is seen that in addition to material items such as tents, horses, arrows, bows, carpet weaving in the cartoon, intangible items such as stories, proverbs and folk medicine are also included. It is seen that the participants generally know the horse, archery, mangala game, wrestling, tent, shadow play and zerde dessert of Turkish culture. In particular, horse riding, archery and tent living seem to be the most well-known cultural elements. Another striking result is that shadow play is also known, and especially the play called Hacivat and Karagöz comes to mind first. However through the Alpman cartoon, it was learned that the lynx animal is important in Turkish culture and that the game of Çevgen is a cultural game. It is one of the valuable features of the cartoon that it reminds the cultural elements that are about to be forgotten in each episode. It is suggested that the number of cartoons about cultural elements should be increased. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
