Dr. Nuran Tezcan Eylül, 2012 Evliyâ Çelebi, Seyahatnâme’de yineleyerek vurguladığı kimi başlıklarla okurun dikkatini özellikle bazı anlatı kategorilerine çekmektedir. Bu kategorilerden biri de yapıtın kurmaca boyutunun ve Evliyâ’nın “hikâye anlatıcı”lığının tartışılabilmesi için son derece önemli olan acayib ü garayibyani “acayiplikler ve gariplikler”dir.Bu çalışmada, “Evliyâ Çelebi’nin Acayip ve Garip Dünyası”, 17. yüzyıl Osmanlı toplumunun Epistemesinin söylemini yansıtan ve sözlü kültürün neredeyse tüm kaynaklarına hâkim bir hikâye anlatıcısının zihninde aranmıştır. Bu arayışta ilk olarak, Evliyâ Çelebi’ye Walter Benjamin’in “Hikâye Anlatıcısı” başlıklı yazısından hareketle, sözlü geleneğin bir hikâye anlatıcısı olarak yaklaşılması önerilmiş ve Seyahatnâme’nin sözlü niteliği üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmanın odağınaacayib ü garayibyerleştirilerek “doğruluk ve yanlışlık”, “gerçeklik ve kurmaca”, “bağlam”, “deneyim” ve “bilgi” gibi kavramların değerlendirilmesinin izi sürülmüştür. Acâ’ib’in seyahat anlatısı geleneğindeki köklü geçmişi göz önünde bulundurulduğunda,Evliyâ Çelebi’ninböyle bir kategori oluşturması, bilinçli bir tercih olarak kabul edilmelidir. Çalışmada, Evliyâ’nın neyi, neden “acayip” ve “garip” bulup aktardığını bütünlüklü olarak görebilmek için başlıklarında bu sıfatları kullandığı anlatılar, Yapı Kredi Yayınları’nın on ciltlik kitaplarından taranmıştır.Ardından yapılan sınıflandırma denemesinde anlatıların;insanların başından geçen maceralar ya da fiziksel görünüşleri,rüya ve kehanet, “öteki”nin inançları, sanat ve teknoloji, hayvanlar, doğa unsurları tılsım ve sihir gibi üst başlıkların altına yerleştirilebileceği görülmektedir. Dolayısıyla, Seyahatnâme’de “acayip ve garip hikâyeler”in belirli ve sınırlı konularda yoğunlaştığını söylemek mümkün değildir. Metinlerin ortak özelliği, “şaşırtıcı” ve “anlatılmaya/kaydedilmeye değer” olmalarıdır. Bunun yanında, anlatılarıntamamen hayal ürünü, olağanüstü ve fantastik hikâyelerden oluştuğunu söylemek mümkün değildir. Aksine birçok metinde “acayip” ve “garip” terimleri fanteziden ziyade gerçeklik düzlemine atıfta bulunmaktadır. Anahtar Sözcükler: Evliyâ Çelebi Seyahatnâmesi, acayib ü garayib, hikâye anlatıcısı, gerçeklik ve kurmaca. iii ABSTRACT EVLİY ÇELEBİ’S STRANGE AND WONDROUS WORLD Özay, Yeliz P.D., Department of Turkish Literature Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. NuranTezcan September, 2012 Evliyâ Çelebi,in his work Seyahatnâme (Book of Travels), draws the reader’s attention to certainnarratives by repeated recourse to specificnarrative genres. One such genre, which is important for appreciating Evliyâ Çelebi as a storyteller and understanding the fictional dimensions of his work, is that of “marvels and wonders” (acayib ü garayib). In this study, “Evliyâ’s world of the strange and wondrous”is analyzed through the mentality of this storyteller who feeds on and is fed by oral culture, considering the epistemological standards of the 17th-century Ottoman world.Indoing so, the study proposes to approach Evliyâ Çelebi as a storyteller based on Walter Benjamin’s work “The Storyteller” and on the oral character of Seyahatnâme.Focusing on acayib ü garayib, evaluations will also be made of suchconcepts as “true and untrue”, “reality and fiction”, “context”, “experience”, and “knowledge”. Considering the long-standing history of Acâ’ib in the tradition of travel narratives, Evliyâ’s use of this category seems to be a conscious decision based on the Islamic tradition of travel writing.To fully understand what Evliyâfinds to be “strange and wondrous” and why he does so, the narratives in question can be classified under certain concepts, such as talismans and spells, magic and witchcraft, dreams and prophecies, adventures, physical appearances, animals, different beliefs or cultures, landforms, architectural structures, and so on. These include most of the basic concepts in Evliyâ’s travels, and indeed in his life. Thus, it is difficult to say that the narratives of “marvels and wonders” in the Seyahatnâme focus on certain restricted topics. The common characteristic of these texts is that they all evoke a feeling of “astonishment”. Besides this, Evliyâ rarely places a totally fictitious, supernatural, or fantastic story under the title of acayib or garayib. Rather, in the majority of thetexts, these terms refer more than anything else to the realm of reality, rather than to that of fantasy. Keywords: Evliyâ Çelebi’s Seyahatnâme(Book of Travels) ,acayib ü garayib, storyteller, reality and fiction. iv TEŞEKKÜR Bilkent Üniversitesi Türk Edebiyatı Bölümü’nde verdiği “Evliyâ Çelebi ve Seyahatnâme” seminerleriyle bu tezin çalışılmasında ilk heyecanın oluşmasını sağlayan, analitik eleştirileri ve değerli önerileriyle tezin yazılma aşamasında çok değerli katkılar sunan tez danışmanım Nuran Tezcan’a; tez izleme komitelerinde, çalışmanın her sürecini titizlikle takip edip ufuk açıcı yorumlarıyla tezin şekillenmesine yardımcı olan Prof. Dr. Öcal Oğuz ve Prof. Dr. Semih Tezcan’a; jürideki değerli katkıları için Prof. Talât Halman ve Yrd.

  • 235On the Trail of Evliya Çelebi's Inscriptions and Graffiti
    235«A mari usque ad mare» Cultura visuale e materiale dall’Adriatico all’India a cura di Mattia Guidetti e Sara Mondini 235On the Trail of Evliya Çelebi’s Inscriptions and Graffiti Mehmet Tütüncü (Research Centre for Turkish and Arabic World, Haarlem, Netherlands) Abstract The Turkish traveller Evliya Çelebi was accustomed to leave a small graffito, or even a skillfully carved inscription, in the places he visited during his long travels across the whole Otto- man World. These traces can be compared with what he recorded in his oceanic Seyahatname and in other writings, a work in progress whose first results are offered in this paper. Summary 1 Introduction. – 2 Inscriptions Written by Evliya Çelebi. – 2.1 The Uyvar (Nové Zámky) Inscriptions. – 2.2 Crete-Kandiye (Heraklion). – 2.3 Zarnata Castle. – 2.4 Mora Zarnata Mosque. – 3 Evliya Çelebi’s Memento Inscriptions (graffiti). – 3.1 Wall and Tree Inscriptions Mentioned in the Seyahatname. – 3.2 Not Mentioned Wall Inscriptions in the Seyahatname. – 3.3 Evliya Çelebi’s Inscription on Pir Ahmed Efendi Mosque. – 3.4 Evliya’s graffito in Pécs (Hungary). Keywords Evliya Çelebi. Ottoman inscriptions. Balkans. I first met Gianclaudio in 2009 in a Symposium about Bektashism in Albania in Tirana (fig. 1). He presented there his findings of the Survey in Delvina, with a focus on the graffiti in the portico of Gjin Aleksi Mosque. On that oc- casion we spoke about the findings and I speculated that this graffiti could be the work of Evliya Çelebi and asked whether I could join him to see and inspect the graffiti.

DATE OF APPROVAL: 8 SEPTEMBER 2011 © Ahmet Bilaloğlu, 2011 All rights Reserved ABSTRACT CONTEXTUALIZING AN 18 TH CENTURY OTTOMAN ELITE: ŞERĐF HALĐL PAŞA OF ŞUMNU AND HIS PATRONAGE Ahmet Bilaloğlu History, MA Thesis, 2011 Thesis Supervisor: Tülay Artan Keywords: Şumnu, Şerif Halil Paşa, Tombul Mosque, Şumnu library. The fundamental aim of this thesis is to present the career of Şerif Halil Paşa of Şumnu who has only been mentioned in scholarly research due to the socio-religious complex that he commissioned in his hometown. Furthermore, it is aimed to portray Şerif Halil within a larger circle of elites and their common interests in the first half of the 18 th century. For the study, various chronicles, archival records and biographical dictionaries have been used as primary sources. The vakıfnâme of the socio-religious complex of Şerif Halil proved to be a rare example which included some valuable biographical facts about the patron. Apart from the official posts that Şerif Halil Paşa occupied in the Defterhâne and the Divânhâne , this study attempts to render his patronage of architecture as well as his intellectual interests such as calligraphy and literature.

  • Istanbul As a Military Target
    Istanbul as a Military Target Christine Isom-Verhaaren Brigham Young University The Ottomans viewed Istanbul as the ideal capital of their Empire long before its conquest in 1453. However Istanbul both benefitted and suffered from its location on the straits that connect- ed the Mediterranean to the Black Sea. Mehmed II’s rebuilding of the city into a thriving metropolis brought the danger that enemies of the Ottomans would consider access to the city as a military strategy. Istanbul’s large population required an elaborate system of supply to feed the city and sea borne trade was vital for the city’s prosperity.1 This transformed the need for an effective Ottoman naval force from a desirable option to an absolute necessity. The creation and maintenance of effective naval power progressed une- venly from the 1450s with Mehmed II’s creation of a large but not particularly high quality navy. Bayezid II improved the empire’s naval forces through the recruitment of the corsair Kemal Reis as a commander. During the reign of Süleyman, under the former corsair, 1 Colin Imber, “Before the Kapudan Pashas: Sea Power and the Emergence of the Ottoman Empire,” The Kapudan Pasha: His Office and his Domain, Halycon Days in Crete IV, a symposium held in Rethymnon 7-9 January 2000, ed.

Title: The rise of the Köprülü family: the reconfiguration of vizierial power in the seventeenth century Issue Date: 2019-03-06 CHAPTER 2: THE RISE OF KÖPRÜLÜ MEHMED PASHA: RESTORATION OF THE AUTHORITY OF THE GRAND VIZIER (1651-1661) 2.1. Introduction In the year 1067 (1656) the courier of the Crimean sultan Mehmed Giray Khan, whose name was Colaq Dedeş Agha, arrived from the felicitous Threshold on his way back to the Crimea, bearing letters for our lord the pasha. “Amazing”, cried the Pasha when he read the letters. “My Evliya, have you heard?” he went on in his astonishment. “Boynu Egri Mehmed Pasha has been dismissed from the grand vizierate, and Köprülü Mehmed Pasha has been appointed in his place.” “Well, my sultan,” piped up the seal keeper, Osman Agha, “just see what an evil day the Ottoman state has reached, when we get as grand vizier a miserable wretch like Köprülü, who could not even give straw to a pair of oxen!”124 The famous traveler Evliya Çelebi recorded this dialogue in his voluminous travels-cum- memoirs when he accompanied in the Crimea his master Melek Ahmed Pasha, who was at the time the governor of Özi. The passage is important because it provides precious insights into how the appointment of Köprülü Mehmed Pasha was received by contemporary Ottoman observers. The reaction of Osman Aga indicates that Köprülü Mehmed Pasha did not have a positive public image.

  • EVLIYA DEPARTS for Damascus with Its Governor Silihdar Murtaza Pasha
    VOLUME THREE In the Retinue of Melek Ahmed Pasha VLIYA DEPARTS for Damascus with its governor Silihdar Murtaza Pasha Ein September 1648. On the way he stops briefly at Akşehir, home of Nasred- din Hoca, the legendary subject of so much Turkish humour. His peregrinations in the Holy Land include a stay in Safed (cf. Volume 9, selection 3) where he en- counters a community of Sephardic Jews. He considers Ladino (or Judaeo-Span- ish, which he had also heard in Istanbul and was later to hear in Salonica) to be the Jewish language par excellence. While in Damascus he has encounters with the colourful Sheikh Bekkar the Naked (cf. Volume 9, selection 5). A year later Murtaza Pasha is appointed governor of Sivas, and Evliya accom- panies him there. At the end of his long description of the city, we find the satir- ical story of the girl who gave birth to an elephant, and his description of the Armenian language. Stopping at Divriği, he sees the cats that he had found auc- tioned in Ardabil (Volume 2, selection 7). With the Pasha’s dismissal from office, Evliya returns to Istanbul in July 1650. He now attaches himself to another kinsman, Melek Ahmed Pasha. For the next twelve years Evliya is in Melek Pasha’s service, and his travel itinerary fol- lows the various posts to which the Pasha is assigned as governor (beylerbey). In this volume we hear about Evliya’s travels with Melek Pasha in Thrace and the Balkans. He reports on witchcraft in a Bulgarian village; on hot springs (cf.

Thesis, Spring 2013 Thesis Supervisor: Tülay Artan Keywords: Mehmed IV, Ghazi Sultans, Abaza Hasan Paşa, Fazıl Ahmed Paşa, Kamaniçe. In 1658 Sultan Mehmed IV was officially given the title of Ghazi with a fatwa of the Şeyhülislam; but it was not until in 1672 that this title materialized in concrete manner. This was unique, as for the first time in Ottoman history a sultan was officially - not rhetorically- receiving the Ghazi title prior to actually taking part in a campaign. In examining this unique case, the present study poses the following questions: under what circumstances was the Ghazi title first given to Mehmed IV in 1658 and why did he join the Kamaniçe campaign in 1672? To answer these questions, it advances two arguments. First, it argues that Mehmed IV’s Ghazi title was launched by the ruling elites as a legitimization tool against Abaza Hasan Paşa, the provincial governor who had revolted against the rigid rule of the Grand Vizier Köprülü Mehmed Paşa in 1658.

Tunç Şen, 2008 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT THE DREAM OF A 17 TH CENTURY OTTOMAN INTELLECTUAL: VEYS İ AND HIS HABNAME A.Tunç Şen History, M.A. thesis, Spring 2008 Thesis Supervisor: Y. Hakan Erdem This thesis endeavors to present a literary-historical analysis of a seventeenth century work of prose, Habnâme , which was written by one of the prominent literary figures of his time, Veysî. He was born in Ala şehir in 1561/2, and died in 1628 in Skopje. Having been enrolled in medrese education, he worked as a kadı in various locations in both Anatolia and Rumeli including Ala şehir, Tire, Serez and Skopje. He is, however, better known for his literary abilities, and respected by both contemporary biographers and modern scholars as one of the leading figures of Ottoman ornamental prose. In his Habnâme, Veysî constructs a dream setting, in which the Alexander the Two- Horned has a conversation with Ahmed I regarding Ahmed’s concerns of the abuses in state apparatus.

  • The Trip from Bursa to Edi̇rne to Join Him, He Agreed to Leave Him with the Grand Vizier
    THE TRIP FROM BURSA TO EDİRNE In a peripatetic life that included forty years of sustained travel, Evliya Çelebi spent twelve years in the service of Melek Ahmed Pasha, governor of a number of Ottoman provinces and grand vizier between 1650–1651. Evliya traveled with his patron—a relative on his mother’s side—to postings in Ochakiv (Özü), Silistre, Van, Bitlis, and Sofia, remaining with him until the pasha’s death in 1662. Due to the circumstances described below, however, Evliya was away from his patron during the 1659 trip from Bursa to Edirne, traveling in the retinue of grand vizier Köprülü Mehmed Pasha. Evliya was deeply attached to his kinsman Melek Ahmed, and to his wife Qaya Sultan, a daughter of Sultan Murad IV (r. 1623–1640), who died in early 1659, a few months before Evliya’s journey. Twenty days after Melek Ahmed Pasha’s wife Qaya Sultan died, he was summoned before the young Sultan Mehmed IV along with the grand vizier Köprülü Mehmed Pasha. The sultan granted Melek Ahmed the governorship of Bosnia province and additional monetary allowances in what seems to have been an act of consolation; Evliya describes Köprülü’s astonishment at the sultan’s generosity toward Melek Ahmed. After leaving the sultan’s audi- ence, the two men quarreled over Köprülü’s recommendation that Melek Ahmed appoint one of Köprülü’s own protégés as an administrator in his newly acquired post. When Melek Ahmed Pasha set out toward Bosnia from Istanbul on 15 March 1659, Evliya was in his retinue. The pasha’s cortege quartered for a week on the Topcılar Plain to the northwest of the city as they acquired the necessary provisions for the journey.
