Abstract (EN)

15th century is an era that introduced many prominent poets and literary people. Anatolian Mysticism known as tasavvuf was quite influential at the time when poets such as Yunus Emre, Şeyyad Hamza, Eşrefoğlu Rumi were contributing to Turkish Language. Although many of these poems and poets of this era are very well known by academic people as well as layman, there are quite others who have not attained the same degree of popularity. The process of transcribing Turkish hand manuscripts written in Arabic letters in to new Latin alphabet has not been wholly achieved. There is a huge heritage of literary materials waiting to be uncovered. There are many Turkish hand manuscripts which are known to exist in the libraries around the world, but not examined yet. Studies on transcribing and examining of materials from earlier centuries are important to have a better understanding of socioeconomic and cultural features defining the era. In the study the hand manuscript of "Furkatname" which was written by Halili in 15th century is transcribed and examined comparatively. The manuscript in Berlin State library (Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin Preuβischer Kulturbesitz) includes some poems belonging to other poets in the last part of Fürkatname. Some of the poems in this part have not been seen anywhere else and it is observed that some of the poems are belonging to certain poets who have not been given the credit for. This study examines the relevant poems in terms of grammar usage and vocabulary. Keywords: Turkish language, 15th century Turkish poetry, Old Anatolian Turkish, poetic examination, grammar feature
