CLASSIFICATION OF THE MECMU'A-I GAZELIYAT AND EŞ'AR REGISTERED WITH NUMBER NEKTY03296 IN THE ISTANBUL UNIVERSITY RARE WORKS LIBRARY ACCORDING TO MESTAP
Journals are important texts in the field of literary history in order to analyze the periods correctly. As of the period they were written, they appear as works that we can directly follow the poetry and aesthetic understanding of literary circles. They allow us to access important data about the popularity of the poets of the period in which they were written, to discover poets whose works have not survived, or to repair the mistakes and defects in the poems of poets whose divans have survived. In this study, we have examined the work called Mecmû'a-i Gazeliyât ve Eş'âr registered in Istanbul University Rare Works Library, number NEKTY03296. First, general information about the journals is given. Afterwards, the journal was examined and introduced in terms of language and spelling features.
