Karagöz is the name of the Turkish shadow theater and in the same time the name of the principal hero: it means "black eye". This burlesque show was performed on great occasions, such as births, circumcisions, weddings, and also during the winter evenings and the month of Ramadan. The size of puppets, in camel hide, is generally 25/35 cm. Sketches are inspired by daily life in big anatolian cities and in Istanbul. In this play, Karagöz is both pharmacist and doctor, a job for which he is not at all qualified. Of course, the farce is embroidered around his extravagant speeches and acts when different people come in the pharmacy. We notice the importance of the French vocabulary.
I evaluate Kusch's arguments that everyday and scientific psychological benefits are made true by the institutional facts about the people to whom they are applied. I conclude that institutional facts are among the truth-makers of such beliefs, and that this is a very significant point to have made, but that they are unlikely to be the sole such truth-makers.
