Özet:

 This article aims to analyze Gertrude Steins libretto, Four Saints in Three Acts through the perspective in Picassos cubist landscape paintings. The transformation Stein made to the aesthetics of representation was inspired by Picassos cubist landscape paintings and affected her writing style. To understand these new aesthetics, the study will first focus on how the way seeing had changed through Cubism and Picassos cubist landscape techniques, analyzing the multi-perspective Picasso used in cubist painting as the principle indicator of this technique. The study will then focus on how Stein applied this technique to her writing. Stein is seen to have used every kind of possible argument make language performative in her work, such as rhythmically repeating words and employing homonyms and homophones, thus using the multi-perspective technique as suggested by cubic painting to form her libretto Four Saints in Three Acts.

 Bu makale, Gertrude Steinın Four Saints In Three Acts Üç Perdede Dört Aziz peyzaj metnini, Picassonun kübist peyzaj resimlerindeki görme biçimi ile okumayı amaçlamaktadır. Picassonun kübist peyzaj resimlerinden esinlenerek Steinın temsil estetiğinde oluşturduğu dönüşüm, dili kullanım biçiminden kaynaklanır. Bunu anlamak için öncelikle Kübist resimle değişen görme biçimine ve Picassonun kübist peyzaj tekniğine odaklanılacaktır. İlk olarak, tekniğin temel belirleyeni, Picassonun çoklu perspektif kullanımı araştırılacaktır. Sonrasında Steinın bunu peyzaj metne nasıl uyguladığına odaklanılacaktır. Stein, Four Saints In Three Acts Üç Perdede Dört Aziz metnini yazarken ritmik ve sesteş sözcüklerin tekrarı gibi dili performatif yapabilecek her argümanı kullanmıştır. Böylelikle kübik resmin önerdiği çoklu perspektif tekniğiyle Four Saints In Three Acts Üç Perdede Dört Aziz peyzaj metnini oluşturmuştur.
