“…Cartoons and caricatures are tools of popular politics and have been used to define and guide political discourse along certain paths (Hamilakis 2000: 58). They can thus be used to promote a narrative of enmity among the general populace, and existing studies have explored that dynamic within the general context of the South-Eastern Balkans, Turkey and more specifically the Greek-Turkish rivalry (Parusheva 2008(Parusheva , 2013İnce 2014Antonopoulos 2016;Rigatos 2018;Papa 2019;Okyar 2020). One of the main tools here is the mobilisation of ethnic stereotypes as a form of crude and aggressive humour in order to denigrate the enemy, and uplift the compatriot.…”

A century ago, the Greek-Turkish War of 1919-1922 (Turkish War of Liberation/Asia Minor Campaign) was reaching its culmination point. The war was also fought in the pages of the Press. In this study, we look at the characteristics of the caricatures marshalled in the war effort by three publications. The Greek newspaper Skrip, and the Turkish satirical magazines Karagöz and Güleryüz. We find that most expectations based on semiotics and the concept of interstate rivalry are borne out. Depictions of the ‘Other’ are generally negative. That said we also find that Skrip dedicated the majority of its caricatures to targeting the internal ‘Other’, the Venizelist faction during the National Schism, in contrast to the more focused targeting of the Greek ‘Other’ by the Turkish publications. This finding indicates the dominance of domestic conflicts over the external conflict even during the inflation point of the Greek-Turkish Interstate Rivalry of 1866-1925.

“…On the other hand, cartoon movies that were produced after the 1980s showed less stereotypical in multiple behaviors (Blaber, Brady, & Gougoumanova, 2020). Okyar (2020) has viewed that the cartoon genre offers a forceful opportunity to visualize favorable etiquette, although TV programs are limited by production costs and lack of imagination. However, cartoons are not constrained by what people can be filmed portraying in the entertainment programs, but they can carry out every dimension and realization of cartoons.…”

The research targets articulating George’s gestural expressions that contribute to young learners’ affection. Teaching values become the turning point in children’s behavioral learning processes where they can comprehend the values as adaptable as possible towards supportive environments. Data collection was primarily undertaken from George’s The Slithery Day episode linked to the YouTube web. Data analysis was adjustably analyzed through George’s visually gestural expressions that initiated its positive and constructive speech acts accordingly. However, Oliveira’s (2009) directives options use of imperatives, declarative, and interrogatives were attributed to accomplishing the content analysis. The results record that George’s gestural expressions might teach young learners about showing hospitality and helping to each other, setting off innovativeness with the variously tiring endeavors, eagerly willing to know something new as addressing life skills, and respecting someone else creations, as well as performing the capability of conveying, promising, asking, demanding, commanding, requesting, complaining, and announcing that supported the empirical speech acts. These gestural expressions afford the functional, observable, workable, concrete, and empirical positions as if showing the recognizable relationships and the goodness in George’s interactions with others. However, George’s experientially gestural expressions symbolized non-verbal communication agreements to the significance of young learners’ sensitive adaptability in their daily learning and interaction processes.
