The secret diary recording the depression of the ımaginative woman narrator in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The Yellow Wall Paper”

Öz:
As reflected through the highly imaginative storyteller of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The Yellow Wall Paper” (1892), this article underlines how secret diaries kept in mind expose the inner worlds of individuals who expose what they have in their consciousness. As both a work of feminist literature and a work of psychological fiction, the target one indicates a fragmented female mind of the secretive narrator kept behind the wallpaper. Recording her thoughts about the wallpaper implies that the narrator, named as Jane or not Jane, is the stereotype representing such kind of women in society and keeps most of her thoughts behind the wallpaper. To illustrate, she has some conflicts existing between her and her husband so that she manifests them in her diary kept in mind through her writings.Although her husband seems to love his wife, yet, he does not understand the negative impact he has on her that indicates their alienation. Reflecting the existence of a strong inner/outer world distance in this short story, this article highlights that as the narrator alienates herself from the outer world, she comprehends her inner world realities better in her loneliness. In this case, the narrator has a great psychological suffering. She has great imagination and identifies herself as the trapped woman behind the wallpaper. In this case, she has an obssession of marginalizing herself with the wallpaper.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman’ın “The Yellow Wall Paper” adlı kısa hikâyesinde hayalperest kadın anlatıcı’nın depresyonunu kaydeden gizemli günlük

Öz:
Charlotte Perkins Gilman’ın “The Yellow Wall Paper” (1892) adlı hikâyesinin oldukça hayalperest öykü anlatıcısı aracılığıyla yansıtıldığı üzere, bu makale, yazı yoluyla zihinde saklı tutulan gizli günlüklerin, bireylerin bilinçlerinde iç dünyalarında sahip olduklarını açığa çıkardığının altını çiziyor. Hem bir feminist kısa hikâyesi hem de bir psikolojik kurgu eseri olarak hedef, duvar kâğıdının arkasında anlatıcının gizemli parçalanmış kadın zihnini göstermektir. Duvar kâğıdıyla ilgili düşüncelerini kaydetmek, Jane olan ya da Jane olmayan, anlatıcının toplumdaki benzeri kadınları temsil eden stereotip olduğunu ve düşüncelerinin çoğunu duvar kâğıdının arkasında saklı tuttuğunu ima eder. Örneğin, günlüğünde kocasıyla arasında bazı çatışmaların olduğunu belirtir. Kocası karısını seviyor gibi görünse de, O’na yabancılaştığını gösteren olumsuz etkisini anlamıyor. Güçlü bir iç / dış dünya mesafesine sahip olan bu kısa hikâye, anlatıcının kendisini dış dünyaya yabancılaştırırken, içsel gerçeklerini yalnızlığında daha iyi anladığını vurgulamaktadır. Bu durumda anlatıcının büyük bir psikolojik ıstırabı vardır. Harika bir hayal gücü olan kadın, kendini duvar kâğıdının arkasındaki hapsolmuş kadın olarak tanımlıyor. Bu durumda, duvar kâğıdıyla kendini ötekileştirme takıntısı vardır.
