Scientific and Literary Aspects of Plants
In this interdisciplinary exhibition, our 9th grade students combined the knowledge they gained in Turkish Language and Literature and Biology classes to explore the plants mentioned in Yaşar Kemal’s Yılanı Öldürseler from both scientific and literary perspectives.
In their literature classes, students discovered that the elements of nature and plants in the novel are not merely decorative details, but important narrative elements reflecting the emotions of the characters, their living conditions, and the atmosphere of Çukurova. In biology classes, they examined the structural characteristics and life processes of these plants.
The models and texts presented in the exhibition aim to show that nature can be approached not only through a scientific perspective, but also through the lens of literature and art.
Together, the students explored the strong connection between nature, science, and literature.
