'Like all my classmates I was encompassed by Oya Başak's zest and deep love of literature. She has inspired me to become a drama scholar and whenever I teach modern drama to undergraduate students her words ring in my ears.
This tribute is a joint product of all of Oya Başak's students and colleagues in the Department of Western Languages and Literatures.'
