Özet:

 In Hermann Hesses work named Between the Wheels, an outdated education system where childhood period expected to grow mature early creates a danger that the child shall begin to experience a second unrealistic childhood period is criticized. The introverted aggression of the soul, which is deprived of childhood, gradually begins to turn towards itself. In the work, it is stated that the ideal of high achievement is adopted by the education authorities and their families to children by alienating them from their selves, and by using a rigid and disciplinary education system and the trauma caused by this ideal on the child self and its irreparable consequences are explained. In the work, negative educational relations exposed by the children at the Maulbronn Monastery school in Schwaben, Germany are addressed. The psychic confusion of the psychic soul of Hans Giebenrath, who enrolled this school in second place under the pressure of his family and town people, but who realized later saw that this school did not give him any opportunity to develop himself, takes him away from both his nature-loving habits and his ideal of success, and he starts to dispose of working. Returning to the town, he continues his life as the apprentice who bends the iron wheels. The work he performs with his hand skill does not make him happy. He falls into the river and his mysterious death saddens the whole people of the town. When evaluated from an educational and scientific point of view, it is thought that it is of an importance to analyze Hesses work, in which the contradictory elements existing between the official curriculum and the hidden curriculum draw attention, in terms of the analysis of child-specific values and existential images. The aim of this research is to analyze the existentialist images of the child self in Hermann Hesses work named Between the Wheels. The work has been analyzed with narrative analysis technique. From the findings obtained, two themes were reached: Under Child Self, which is the first theme; Categories named autonomy of the self, undirected thinking, free will have been identified. Under Existential Images, which is the second theme; Categories named nature, friendship and contradictions have been obtained. The results of the research show that the official curriculum and Hidden Curriculum should provide children with the opportunity to learn by living in line with their interests and abilities and support them to be autonomous individuals in their decisions and actions. This research shows the importance of living together with the child self and the adult self in order for the adults around the children to establish a balanced and healthy communication with the children, and the importance of the life spent by the children with nature for the healthy evolution of the child self to the higher stages.

 Hermann Hessenin Çarklar Arasında adlı yapıtında, vaktinden önce olgunlaşması beklenilen çocukluğun, gerçek dışı ikinci bir çocukluk dönemi yaşamaya başlayacağı tehlikesini doğuran zaman aşımına uğramış bir eğitim sisteminin eleştirisi yapılır. Çocukluktan yoksun bırakılan ruhun içe dönük saldırganlığı, giderek kendine yönelmeye başlar. Eserde, eğitim otoriteleri ve aileler tarafından çocukların benliklerinden uzaklaştırılarak katı ve disiplin yanlısı bir eğitim sistemi yoluyla, çocuklara benimsetilen üstün başarı idealinin çocuk benliğin örselenmesine ve bunun telafisi olmayan sonuçlarına değinilmektedir. Yapıtta, Almanyanın Schwaben kasabasındaki Maulbronn Manastır okulunda, çocukların maruz kaldığı olumsuz eğitsel ilişkiler ele alınmaktadır. Bu okulu, aile ve kasaba çevresinin baskısıyla, ikincilikle kazanan ancak sonrasında kendisine hiç bir gelişme fırsatı vermediğini gören Hans Giebenrathın psişik ruh karışıklığı, onu hem doğaya meftun alışkanlıklarından hem de başarı idealinden uzaklaştırır. Kasabaya dönerek, demir çarkları eğeleyen çırak olarak yaşamına devam eder. El becerisiyle yaptığı iş ise onu mutlu etmez. Irmağa düşer, gizemli ölümü tüm kasabayı üzer. Hessenin; eğitbilimsel açıdan açık ve örtük eğitim programlarının birbiriyle çelişen unsurlarının dikkati çektiği, bu yapıtının, çocuk benliğe özgü değerlerin analizi ve varoluşçu imgeler açısından ele alınmasının önem taşıdığı düşünülmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, Hermann Hessenin Çarklar Arasında adlı yapıtında, çocuk benliğin varoluşçu imgelerini çözümlemektir. Yapıt, anlatı analizi tekniğiyle çözümlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulardan iki temaya ulaşılmıştır: Birinci tema olan Çocuk Benlik altında; benlik özerkliği, yönlendirilmemiş düşünme, özgür istenç adlı kategoriler belirlenmiştir. İkinci tema olan, Varoluşçu İmgeler altında; doğa, arkadaşlık ve çelişkiler adlı kategoriler elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları, açık ve örtük eğitim programlarının çocukların ilgi ve yetenekleri doğrultusunda yaşayarak yaparak öğrenmelerine fırsat sunması, kararlarında ve eylemlerinde özerk birey olmalarını desteklemesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Çocukların çevresindeki yetişkinlerin de çocuklarla dengeli ve sağlıklı bir iletişim kurması için çocuk benlik ve yetişkin benliğin bir arada yaşaması, çocuk benliğin üst evrelere sağlıklı evrilmesi için çocukların doğayla geçirdikleri yaşantının önemini göstermektedir.
