In this confusion that takes its name from a Greek myth, boys hate their fathers while falling in love with their mothers. According to Freud, the boy identifies himself with the father as he feeds his mother some sexual desires and wants to replace him. The same applies to girls. Freud has attempted to explain the Oedipus complex in terms of the events that came to it, in motion, even of literary works of authors such as Dostoyevsky. Although there has been a lot of reaction in this regard, the rightfulness has been left to them by researchers working in this field. The words like "I want to be like my mother" and "Be my wife like my father" we hear frequently in our neighborhood are basically related to this theorem of Freud. In this work, Lami'i of the 16th century poet will be dealt with in the context of the Oedipus complex of the 1903-pound Salaman and Absal mathnawi, translated from the Molla Cami. This mathnawi, with Greek origins, is confronted with a different fiction from other mathnawis. Mathnawi; in the extraordinary way, Salaman, who came to the world without a mother, tells of love that she lived with a woman named Absal, who was kept as her motherin-law. The mathnawi, Oedipus complex seems to have existed. There is a hidden hostility towards the father because the love between father, Salaman and Absal is the greatest obstacle. This is why Salaman is away from his father. At the end of mathnawi, the death of Absal and the Salamans fell in love with another woman named Zühre, leaving the Oedipus complex to stand. The problem with Salamani's father is the end of his father's desire to replace.

However, it may not be possible to say that it has been examined in terms of sporting aspects. Especially, it can be said that physical and psychological studies are limited. Given the folk dances consist of systematic movement pattern; it is important to examine the role of skeleton and muscle systems in movement. The aim of this study was to examine of the activation rate of some muscle in Turkish Folk Dances. The activation rates of some muscle during Horon dance, one of the branches of Turkish folk dances, were measured by using MEG/ENMG. EMG is a writing method of the electrical signals in muscles and nerves. The electrodes were connected to the muscles of M. Tibialis Anterior, M. Quadriceps Femoris, Flexör Digitorum Superficialis, M. Biceps Brachii, Longissimus Thoracis and Trapezius of a dancer, who knew Horon dance well, graduated from conservatory and had a background of Turkish folk dances, and the measurement was conducted. The academicians doing research into anatomy and physiology chose the muscles in theme of “main muscle group.” The muscles were included in the study based on expert opinion. M. Tibialis was the most contracted with the rate of 230.35 in Trabzon-Tonya Horon. Left M. Biceps Brachii was the least contracted with the rate of 28.16 in Trabzon Horon (Male). When the rates of muscles are compared, no average score could be found. The reason for that the muscle usage rates can be different in the same dance. It was found that the arm muscles were used less than leg muscles.  Journal: Eurasian Academy of Sciences Social Sciences Journal Pages: 75-87 Volume: 17 Issue: 17 Year: 2018 Month: Mar DOI: 10.17740/eas.soc.2018.V17-6 File-URL: https://eurasianacademy.org/index.php/socialsciences/article/view/198 File-Format: Application/pdf Handle: RePEc:eas:journl:v:17:y:2018:i:17:p:75-87
