Abstract

This study, entitled (Characteristics of the dystopian personality in the novel Gorlis) analyzes the dimensions of the dystopian concept in the novel "Gurlis" by Tahsin Navshki, a prominent example of dystopian literature, depicting a world where human values ​​are destroyed. The study aims to highlight character development within a dystopian environment and demonstrate how the author portrays humanity as a dystopian character in his novel, living under the pressures of authority, society, and a culture of violence. This research employs a descriptive-analytical approach, focusing on the relationship between the character and the dystopian setting (Gurlis), which is portrayed as a vast prison. The findings reveal that the novel utilizes the character as an artistic tool to express the political and social issues experienced by the Kurdish individual. The dystopian character in this novel is not merely a means of expression, but also a symbol of the failure of human dreams and the loss of humanity under oppressive regimes.
