Abstract
One of the most dangerous and eerie animals of the nature, scorpion has long been used as a motif or symbol from antiquity to present. As an element frequently encountered in mythology, epics, tales, religious texts, reliefs, astrology, cosmology, people s beliefs and practices, the scorpion has also become a poetic symbol. The scorpion symbol as a polysemantic signifier in Turkish poetry tradition, has also continued to be associated with a wide range of ideas in New Turkish poetry. The purpose of this study is to identify the semantic world in which the scorpion symbol appears in the context of New Turkish Poetry.
