ÖZBEK VE OSMANLI KAYNAKLARINA GÖRE ANKARA SAVAŞI’NIN SÖYLEM ANALİZİ

Abstract

Discourse is not merely a means of transmitting information in the narration of historical events; it is also a domain in which ideological positions and power relations are reproduced. The Battle of Ankara (1402), one of the most critical turning points in Turkish history, has been represented within different discursive frameworks in both the Eastern Turkic world (the Timurid– Uzbek tradition) and the Western Turkic world (Ottoman historiography).This study aims to comparatively examine how the Battle of Ankara is narrated in Uzbek and Ottoman sources through the method of discourse analysis. The analysis is grounded in Foucault’s approach to the discourse–power relationship, Van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis, and Fairclough’s theory of ideological discourse
