Abstract
DERVİSH ŞEMSÎ'S ATTEMPT TO INTERPRET THE DEH MURG MASNEVIS ON THE AXIS OF HERMENEUTIC PHILOSOPHY
Hermenutics, known as a paraphrase and interpretation philosophy, has been one of the most used interpretation efforts in literature as well as in many fields of science. From the beginning to the present, many explanations have taken place with the influence of the periods in which the author, the work, the environment, cultural factors or all of them were the focal point in the system of understanding and interpretation.
Hermeneutic philosophy states that the meaning of the poem cannot be limited with the intention of the poet and adopts the idea that the meaning is not just the poet's world of ideas and symbols but comes into being by the intersection of the reader's or the interpreter's imagination. Among the literary works that can be evaluated in this context, classical poems are undoubtedly the most suitable ones for explanation and interpretation.
In this study, the work named Deh Murg, which belongs to Dervish Şemsî, one of the 16th century poets of Classical poetry, will be discussed. Apart from the effect of Dervish Şemsî's period, social and cultural life, literary style on the work, and the reflection of the inspiration he received from the poets of the period and the poets before him on Deh Murg, the similarities and differences of the work with the era in which it was written will be evaluated within the framework of hermeneutic interpretation.
