The tradition of the divanhane among the Turks first appeared in the palaces of the Qarakhaniyan, Ghaznavid and Great Seljuks. The tradition of the divanhane continued in Anatolia in the Seljuk palaces and kiosks and was al so widely embraced in Ottoman architecture. The classic Ottoman divanhane was one in which the preference was a three - iwan layout containing a domed fountain in the central space that led into the open area of the “sofa ” . The aim of this article is to pres ent the layout scheme of the “three - iwan” divanhane, which was one of the divanhane layouts of Ottoman architecture that was used as from the end of the 17th century, not only for pavilions and kiosks, but also in residential plans of mansions (konaks). Ke ywords: Diva nhane, Selamlık, Iwan, Ottoman A rchitecture .

Prof. Dr. Mehmet Kalpaklı January 2018 In the early 17th-century Ottoman Empire, a series of sociocultural, administrative, political, and economic changes were underway that left their mark on how the learned and cultural elite viewed the empire and themselves. Though contemporary sources reflect these shifts in many ways , this period’s rich corpus of invective verse , centering around the poet Nefʿī , has been understudied as a historical source. This dissertation rectifies this neglect by examining this invective corpus as a locus of rivalries and enmities revealing how those involved agonistically defined and were defined by their others, thus necessarily defining themselves in the process. Observing this process of definition and self-definition in the light of contemporary historical developments and sources, the dissertation examines invectives produced against both patrons ( i.e., vertical invective) and fellow poet/clients ( i.e., horizontal invective) in such a way as to demonstrate how the ferocity of the period’s invective verse, and reactions thereto, laid bare how Ottoman elites’ imaginary of themselves was in fact a marginalizing construct.

  • Tales of Tiles in Ottoman Empire
    Colour: Design & Creativity (3) (2008): 9, 1–7 http://www.colour-journal.org/2008/3/9/ Tales of Tiles in Ottoman Empire Simten Gündeş, Melis Oktuğ and Deniz Özden* İstanbul Kültür University Art and Design Faculty, Ataköy Yerleşkesi, Bakırköy, İstanbul, Turkey *İstanbul University Fine Arts Department, Beyazıt, İstanbul, Turkey Email: [email protected] In this article the progress of Turkish tiling art during the Seljuk and Ottoman periods in Anatolia is discussed. Paralleling historical development, examples are given examples of tile techniques both on interior and exterior surfaces. Description of tiling development is given within a diachronic method analysing the original patterns and techniques as a sign of Anatolian civilisation. Introduction The origin of the word ‘tile’ comes from Persian noun phrase ‘Çin-I’ which means tiles manufactured in the Chinese style. The same word has been used in Turkish for glazed patterns or coloured panels. Tile art, that has a great importance in traditional Turkish art, has developed over several centuries. Tiles are widely used in the architecture of many Turkish, monuments, as well as other states in Asia. These developments and the signifi cance of Turkish tile art are discussed below. Turkish settlement of Anatolia intensifi ed after the Battle of Manzikert in 1071. The Seljuk commander Kutalmışoğlu Süleyman Şah extended his conquests in Anatolia westward, taking Iznik from Byzantium in 1075. He made Iznik his capital and announced the independence of the Anatolian Seljuk state, which lasted until 1318, when the Ilkhanids wiped out the last Anatolian Seljuk sultanate. The present-day district of Sogut in the province of Bilecik is where, in the time of the Anatolian Seljuk sultanate, the beylik (principality) of the Osmanogullari was established in the year 1299 by Osman Bey.

  • Tahsin Öz and His Stylistic Restorations in Topkapı Palace Museum
    ITU A|Z • Vol 15 No 3 • November 2018 • 1-12 Scraping the layers: Tahsin Öz and his stylistic restorations in Topkapı Palace Museum Burcu Selcen COŞKUN [email protected] • Department of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture, Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University, Istanbul, Turkey Received: January 2018 • Final Acceptance: September 2018 Abstract State-led heritage conservation was first experienced in Tanzimat Period in Ottoman Empire. State continued being the major custodian of cultural heritage throughout the 1950s. The general approach towards conservation of these early years was the maintenance of symbolic buildings that had been regarded as mon- uments. Yet, we can speak of a selective ideal of determining which monument to conserve and which period to exhibit. Starting his career as the chief accountant and later the deputy director of the Museum of Antiquities, Tahsin Öz was among the people who dominated the field of heritage preservation in the early Republican years. He acted throughout his life as an influential figure in decision making processes of heritage conservation. As one of the most important roles in his career, Öz was appointed as the director of Topkapı Palace Museum, which became a museum in 1924 with the approval of the young parliament. Although much neglected and in need of urgent repair, the buildings of the palace were still witnesses of the 19th century Ottoman taste. Un- til 1953, he was responsible and in charge of some rather ambitious restorations, which favored to erase the traces of one period and return back to a specific one. This paper aims to introduce the controversial approaches of Öz in Topkapi Palace Museum with an overview of what he realized and wrote, and focus simul- taneously on the atmosphere of preservation in Turkey until 1950s with voices of intellectuals and professionals supporting or disagreeing his decisions.
