Özet
Cultural products are subject to change over time, depending on education, science, technology, climate, geography, patterns of production-consumption and many other factors. This process of change may end up with the sustenance of a given cultural element in a new form or its absolute disappearance. In this sense, the function of the cultural element concerned and its capacity for responding to needs are important. Indeed, if any element of tradition or culture has completed its function and encountered a more powerful alternative to replace it, it is already in the process of change or disappearance. The transition of societies from oral culture first to written and then to electronic culture has accelerated the change and transformation of many cultural products. In Turkish culture, as in almost all types of folk literature, folk narratives and storytelling traditions that developed by "agik" or "meddah", the people who tell/perform these stories, have undergone significant changes over time. These changes have recently exceeded the limits which tradition can maintain its existence, reaching the extent of metamorphosis. Related with that, the tradition started to lose its function that maintain its vitality throughout history and started to rapidly weaken against the new cultural products of modern world. Today, folk narratives seem to have been functionally replaced by the media, television and especially television serials. Aside from the written culture, the media whose impact and efficiency has thoroughly increased on folk culture by especially electronic culture has also profoundly influenced the folk narratives and tradition of stoiytelling like other products of folk culture. In this study, folk narratives and storytelling tradition is compared with television series and an answer has been sought for to the question "are the television series modern form of the folk narratives?". The comparisons are made from different aspects such as shape/structure, editing, execution/indication, listeners/viewers and functionality. Therefore, the contemporary storytelling tradition has been tried to consider from a different point of view.
