Abstract
CLASSIFICATION OF THE POETRY COLLECTION (51b-100b) REGISTERED IN SÜLEYMANİYE LIBRARY FATIH COLLECTION NUMBER 4078 ACCORDING TO MESTAP
Poetry collections (mecmuas), which began to appear in the Ottoman period from the 15th century onwards, are important sources that bring together the poems of well-known or unknown poets. Poetry collections, which provide useful data in identifying many poems that are not found in divans, are examples that support classical literature research. There are countless poetry collections in manuscript libraries. Many of these collections have general titles such as “mecmua-i eş'âr”.
It has been observed that studies on poetry magazines have increased in recent years. In particular, the MESTAP Table studies carried out within the framework of the MESTAP project undertake an important function by systematically bringing together a lot of information that remains scattered in manuscript libraries or thesis pages. MESTAP studies, the number of which is increasing, provide important data for researchers and bring to light poems that have remained hidden in the corners. The poetry collection registered at Suleymaniye Library Fatih Collection number 4078 is also worth examining as it is a nazire collection.
In this study, after giving brief information about the nazire collection registered in Suleymaniye Library Fatih Collection number 4078, the MESTAP Table of the magazine's pages 51a-100b was made and the relevant table was presented to the use of researchers.
