Abstract :This study aims to explore the graduate dissertations and theses on melancholy studies done in Türkiye between 2005 and 2022. It primarily provides a content analysis of the 34 master’s theses and doctoral dissertations under examination. Intended to serve as a literature review, the study categorizes the submissions by the field of study. Hence, the title of the manuscript, the name of the author, the argument the researcher deploys throughout, the theories proposed, and the findings and discussions suggested in line with each doctoral dissertation and master’s thesis are correspondingly explained in a concise manner. The major impetus behind this descriptive overview is to offer students, scholars, and researchers useful and clear insight into melancholy studies, and to assist them to perceive in which aspects their research might be distinguished from the preceding studies and in what the originality of their argument or research questions lies. In the study, two tables are further drawn up to indicate the data for the theses and dissertations under examination so that the authorial genders, the rate of master’s theses and doctoral dissertations and the number of submissions made for each field of study are provided for the intended readers.
