The main objective of this master’s thesis is to examine the concept of difference according to French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Henri Bergson. In order to explicate this crucial concept and its emphasis in these thinkers’ philosophies, this dissertation is focused on the notion of time and memory. Through the thesis, first Deleuze’s critical attitude towards representational and dialectical approachs for difference is elucidated. After the comprehensive examination for the meaning of difference according to Deleuze, the understanding of time is revealed by means of Deleuzian comprehension of repetition and Bergsonian notion of duration. Throughout the thesis what is virtually hidden beneath the arguments, what is common in both philosophers finally is exposed as the concept of becoming. For Deleuze, whose philosophy of time is certainly dependent on Bergson, time creates a renewed conception in order for subject to be an individual as the state of permanent becoming. And an individual which is qualified as a state of becoming, is the memory of time where the latter is an infinite virtuality.

How to follow a rule : practice based rule following in Wittgenstein
Adanalı, Yurdagül Kılınç; Ergüden, Akın; Department of Philosophy (2005)
Rule following is a central concept in the philosophy of Wittgenstein who was one of the pioneers of modern philosophy. Wittgenstein criticizes the traditional concepts of rule, because they were vague, ambiguous, and idealized. He thinks that it is not possible to isolate rules from practice and that a rule takes its meaning in a certain context or in practice. Wittgenstein̕s concept of rule following is closely related to a set of concepts: internal relation, understanding, criterion. These concepts expla...
Importance of art in authenticating dasein
Şenyurt, E. Yasemin; İnam, Ahmet; Department of Philosophy (2006)
The aim of this thesis is to try to establish a relationship between Heidegger̕s thought on authenticity and art, and to show the role of art in authentic being of Dasein. Dasein̕s being authentic depends on Dasein̕s revealing of itself as itself. In this respect art plays an important role in revealing Dasein as itself. Thus, the relation between art and authenticity can be based on alethia which is the revealing of being as itself. At the same time art plays an important role in authenticating Dasein by i...
The analysis of alienation [Entfremdung] in being time from a Marxist perspective
Keskin, Eda; İnam, Ahmet; Department of Philosophy (2010)
In this thesis, the problem of human being’s alienation from its own Self, society, species-being, objects (products) and labour, which occurs in capitalist modernity through the formation of mass cultures, is analyzed in the conceptual context of Being and Time. In this respect, it is discussed that Heideggerian philosophy is not at odds with Marxism in contrast to Theodor W. Adorno’s arguments in The Jargon of Authenticity. Additionally, the claim of this study is that Heidegger’s ontologico-existential p...
A critical evaluation of Kripke's interpretation of Wittgenstein
Karaağaç, Hasan; Sayan, Erdinç; Department of Philosophy (2004)
This thesis analyzes the relation between Kripke's rule-sceptic argument and Wittgenstein's paradox. Besides, Kripke's claim that the conclusion of Wittgenstein's private language argument is stated in PI 202 will be discussed. The thesis will also evaluate the consistency of Kripke's rule-sceptic argument independently of Wittgenstein's views.
THE CONCEPT OF AKRASIA IN ANCIENT GREEK PHILOSOPHY: PLATO, ARISTOTLE, AND THE STOICS
Akkökler Karatekeli, Büşra; Turan, Şeref Halil; Department of Philosophy (2022-9)
This thesis investigates the concept of akrasia, with particular attention given to its sundry interpretations in the philosophies of Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics. In this inquiry, I argue that these philosophers agree on the lack of knowledge of the akratic person, while they differentiate from each other as to what this missing knowledge is. Irrespective of their rejection or acknowledgement of akrasia due to their conceptions of the soul, I argue that Plato, Aristotle and the Stoics share the common ...
