Abstract
Turkish society gets stuck in the dilemma between their traditions and the life patterns of modern life. It is also salient that the two different discourses as modernism and traditionalism have been discussed based on cultural codes; however, the discussions based on social principles have rarely been encountered. Two different contents of discourses that should be analysed have political and cultural roots. Furthermore, these two discourses as traditionalism and modernism are presented differently in the media. This study scrutinized Sıla TV series which starts to be broadcasted on 15th, September, 2006 on ATV. The TV series was produced by FM Production, directed by Gül Oğuz, and written by Sema Ergenekon and Eylem Canpolat. The different forms of the orientalist and modernist discourse were presented to us with the mediator role of this TV series. The reason why Sıla TV series were chosen as analysis object was that it was framed within an orientalist and a modernist content affecting our mutual knowledge in our collective conscience deeply.
