This study examines the intersection of climate change and colonialism through the lens of Turkey's military intervention in Kurdistan of Iraq. It explores how environmental degradation, historical injustices, and geopolitical conflicts intertwine in shaping socio-ecological dynamics in the region. The analysis focuses on Turkey's colonial narratives, environmental impacts of military actions, and literary representations from Kurdish authors documenting displacement and ecological vulnerabilities. Drawing on postcolonial literature and environmental justice frameworks, the study highlights Kurdish resilience, community-led adaptation strategies, and calls for global solidarity in addressing environmental injustices. By synthesizing empirical data with theoretical insights, this research contributes to broader discussions on climate justice, sustainable development, and the implications of colonial interventions on local environments and communities

This article explores the intricate relationship between literature and the senses, focusing on how literary works engage and stimulate sensory experiences. We analyse the use of sensory language and vivid imagery, demonstrating how literature can transport readers to different realms, evoke profound emotions, and foster a deep sense of empathy and connection. Furthermore, we investigate the role of narrative structure and character development in enhancing reader engagement and emotional resonance. The impact of literary experience on memory and learning is also examined, highlighting its lasting effects on cognitive and emotional processes. Through a review of empirical research, we elucidate how literature not only shapes sensory experiences but also influences cognitive functions, serving as a potent tool for empathy, understanding, and personal growth.
