The purpose of this work is to analyze the “Cairo Trilogy” of a Nobel Prize winner for literature, the Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz with the method of new historicism. In “Cairo Trilogy”, Mahfouz presents the striking events oflate history of Egypt by weaving them with fıction. As history is one of the most useful sources of literature the dense relationship between history and literature is beyond argument. When viewed from this aspect, a new historicist approach to literature will provide a widened perspective to both literature and history by enabling different possibilities for crucial reading. It is expected that the new historicist analysis of “Cairo Trilogy” will enable a better insight into the literature and historical background of Egypt.

Bu çalışmanın amacı Mısır ’lı Nobel ödüllü yazar Naguib Mahfouz ’un “Kahire Üçlemesi”adlı eserini yeni tarihselcilik metodunu kullanarak analiz etmektir. “Kahire Üçlemesi”nde Mahfouz, Mısır’ın yakın tarihindeki çarpıcı olayları kurgu ile harmanlayarak sunmuştur. Tarih, edebiyatın en faydalı kaynaklarından biri olduğundan, tarih ve edebiyat arasındaki sıkı ilişki tartışılmazdır. Bu açıdan bakıldığında, edebiyata yeni tarihselci bir yaklaşım çapraz okuma konusunda farklı imkanlar sunarak hem edebiyata hem tarihe daha geniş bir bakış açısı sağlayacaktır. “Kahire Üçlemesi”nin yeni tarihselci analizinin Mısır’ın edebiyatının ve tarihsel arkaplanının daha iyi kavranmasını sağlaması beklenmektedir.
