Söz konusu iddia, feminist yazarlar tarafından kaleme alınan Hannah Arendt yorumlarının yardımıyla örülecek kozadan, Furuğ Ferruhzad'ın şiir-yaşamına, yaşam hikâyesi ve seçilmiş şiirlerinin telaffuzu vasıtasıyla edilecek tanıklıkla ispatlanmaya çalışılacaktır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Konuşan eylem, parya, parvenu, yeryüzü ayetleri, ızdırap. Gazing Through Hannah Arendt at Forugh Farrokhzad An Open Window from Captivity to Liberty: The Poetry of Forugh Farrokhzad In this article, it is argued that the poetry-life of Forugh Farrokhzad, the Iranian poet passing away in 1967 at the age of thirty-two, befits the action which is one of the three activities of Hannah Arendt's term Vita Activa. The argument is explored through the poetry-life of Forugh Farrokhzad with a view to her life-story and selected poems from the cocoon which will be spinned by the feminist interpretations of Hannah Arendt's works.

First, it attempts to discover the characteristics of their life courses in order to identify the success factors paving the way for their participation in higher education, specifically when the low education level of the Roma people, including even their own families, is concerned. Therefore, their socioeconomic environment, early childhood years and school experiences are focused and analyzed respectively to expose the actors and processes making their life stories appear as success stories. Second, it aims to expose whether there are differences between the ones involved in the Roma Rights Movement and the ones not involved in terms of their ethnic identity status. That is, most of the better-off Roma, previously, preferred hiding their ethnic identity not to be excluded from participation in social, economic and political spheres. However, the Roma university students participating in the Roma Rights Movement refuse to hide their identity as they do not want to be assimilated, but integrated into the majority society. That point has a first-rate importance, as the low educational level of the Roma people, especially that of the Roma children, are closely associated with the lack of positive role models showing them how and what education pays off. On the basis of the conclusions drawn from the data analysis v collected through in-depth interviews, it is exposed that these Roma youngsters demonstrate high levels of agency for their own social inclusion through education. Although they are all supported by their families; most of their Roma school peers dropped out of either primary or high school due to poverty and discriminative attitudes of their teachers and school administrators. The stigma of inferiority attached to the Roma is so strong that the survivors, who manage to attend the high school, hide their ethnic identity from this point onwards. Therefore, the demand of the Roma university students, participating in Roma Rights Movement, for integration into the majority society appears as an exceptional case among the welleducated Roma, but making them the pioneers of a new Roma identity in Turkey: Roma intelligentsia.
