dc.description.abstractThis research is exploration of post colonial issues in Orhan Pamuk’s novel My Name is Red. The research digs out clash of the two civilizations east and the west in Pamuk’s novel using theory of Edward Said’s Orientalism and Bhabha’s post colonialism.

The failure of Venetian project in the novel is major issues of this research. The research is outcome of analyzing the reason of failure of project to which researcher has taken a research question. In dealing with the issue, this study employs Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism and Homi Bhabha’s discourse on Postcolonialism as research tools. The artists who get involved in project of Sultan are preparing a painting which is similar to Italian renaissance style. Islamic artist who were fully trained in Islamic style couldn’t complete the project. Painting remains neither Islamic nor Italic.
