His research centers on Theatre Studies with specialized focus on disability representation, political oppression, and absurdist traditions. He examines intersections of incarceration narratives and innocence tropes across British and Turkish playwrights, while investigating historical roots of absurdism in early avant-garde works. His methodology combines comparative literary analysis with disability theory frameworks.
Publication trends reveal consistent engagement with human rights themes in theatrical expression, bridging contemporary drama (2024 Pinter/Anday analysis) and historical foundations of absurdism (2023 Jarry study). This dual focus demonstrates scholarly progression from modern political theatre to genre origins.
