THE CONCEPT OF DEVIL BY HUSEYİN JAVİD: FROM TRANSCENCE TO A ROMANTIC MYTHOLOGY

Abstract

The article talks about the mythical roots of the image of Iblis, who represents evil. H. Javid described the image of Iblis in a romantic way. In the work "Iblis", events revolving around the questions "What is the Devil?", "What is a human who betrays everyone?", and the dialogue between Arif and the Devil clarify the place of the Devil in the mythological system and the aspects of its origin. In the work, the struggle between Good and Evil is presented as a struggle between the Devil and human. H. Javid's work "Iblis" is a perfect work written against war and the demonic thoughts that cause it.
