In this thesis, the similarities and differences between Surrealism which influences the world poetry movements and The Second New which is an Avantgarde in Turkish poetry are tried to be analysed. The characteristics, methods and objects of both poetry movements are compared and evaluated based on the texts, interviews and essays. In various articles, The Second New is discussed together with Surrealism and it is considered as meaningless, irrelevant to reality. But mainly it is considered as a movement also exclusive to our country under the influence of Surrealism. When the objects of The Second New to write poetry in a different style and objects of Surrealism such as examining reality and regarding human in a different perspective in his unity are compared, it is observed that the two have radical differences. While for Surrealism all the techniques like imagery, metaphors are means for its objects, for The Second New the characteristics that the surrealists regarded as means have been objects to reach for a different poetry. In the end of the research, It is observed that Surrealism and the Second New are the products of different periods and social conditions. While Surrealism is an unavaidable stop for the societies of the West to make sense of the world and human, The Second New has not pursued such a goal but it aimed to build a new poetics together with the fact that It also realized to regard human and reality in a different way by the change in the poetical discourse.
