Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original cloth bdg. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script. 188 p., ills. Lithograph. Divân-i Âsik Yunus Emre. [On 'derkenar'] Kenzü'l-miftah ve Serh-i Kaside-i Yunus Emre. Yunus Emre was a sufi poet in 13th century. The information on his life is fragmentary, based on what he writes in his Diwan and on stories told within the Bektashi tradition. He is the author of a Diwan. This Diwan contains 417 poems, all of which bar one are ghazals. He mostly used the Turkic system of versifying, based on the number of syllables and stress position rather than the elaborate rules of Arab-Persian prosody. He used the Old Anatolian Turkish language, which was understood by everyone in its period, with very few Arabic or Persian words, and he contributed greatly to the establishment of a Turkish mystical vocabulary based on classic Sufi terms. The most recurrent themes in Yunus Emre's Diwan are mystic love(âsk), the Friend (dost), and how to be a dervish. Yet he is no recluse and the conditions of everyday life are reflected in his poems. His easily understandable religious and moral advice is couched in a lyrical language that is heartfelt, sincere and often highly passionate. His poetry, set to music, was of central importance in the dissemination of Sufi teachings in Anatolia, and influenced the tekke poetry of the following centuries. The intense religious and humane feeling in his poetry has not lost its appeal today. (Source: A history of Seljuks, Ibrahim Kafesoglu). On derkenar text, there's 'Kenzü'l mifta hby Erzincanî Terzi Baba and annotation of 'qasidah' by Yunus Emre. Erzincanî's verse "Kenzil Fütuh" composed of his Sufi and mystic poems was compiled and transferred into verse by Haci Hafiz Mehmed Rüsdi Efendi and published as "Kenzü'l-miftah". It is very important poetry book on sufism and Islamic mysticism. This book is printed by Raif Yelkenci, (1894-1974) who was a Turkish early antiquarian bookseller and manuscript dealer in Antiquarian Bazaar, Beyazit. He was specialist on Yunus Emre and his poems.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In contemporary cloth bdg. Large roy. 8vo. (25 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script. 75 p. Hegira: 1290 = Gregorian: 1873. According to Gibb, 'münazaras' were a scale for Ottoman classical poetry, but Çelebi's münazara is longer as 'mesnevis' are. This 'münazara' (= skirmish, collide) narrates the endless war of winter between spring at Uludag Mountain (with its old Byzantine name Mt. Monk) in Bursa city. This work is an allegoric poem which contains characterization of all concepts such seasons, natural events etc. Winter and Spring Kings have different armies and during this poem they fight on. Hurricane is supreme commander of winter, some flowers are soldiers of spring and full of imageries this masterpiece includes. Lami'i Çelebi named the mountain as 'Uludag' in that work firstly instead of Mt. Monk. According to Agâh Sirri Levend, Münazara was written in 1522 by Çelebi. Although Lamii has about 40 works by researchers, there are 27 works that are certain to belong to him. In the Ottoman world, he was known for his prose (mathnawi) rather than poetic works. Lamii's poem, unlike other "adaptation" is a work which was written with an original subject by him. This is First Printed Edition. Özege 14810. Extremely rare. One of the gems of Turkish literature.
