Analysis of Osman Nevres Divan in terms of religious history and legendary personalities

The subject of the thesis is the analysis of Osman Nevres Dîvânı in terms of religious, historical and legendary personalities. In the study, first of all, information is given about Osman Nevres' life, art, works and his place in 19th century classical Turkish literature. Afterwards, the religious, historical and legendary personalities identified as a result of the scanning of Dîvân are classified and analyzed under separate subheadings under three sections. While analyzing the personalities, information is given about the place of the relevant personality in the history of culture and the way it is handled in classical Turkish literature. Then, the characteristics of this personality in the couplets in the Dîvân were determined and the couplets in which this characteristic was most prominent were selected and annotated. The poet's treatment of the relevant personality was compared with the treatment of the personality in the classical poetry tradition. In the event that a certain characteristic of the relevant personality is treated similarly in more than one couplet, similar couplets are not included in the analysis and only the tags of these couplets are indicated. A small number of personalities whose names are not directly mentioned in the couplets but are referred to through their works are also included in the analysis. A table showing the number of couplets in which the analyzed personalities are mentioned in Dîvân and the frequency of each characteristic compared to other characteristics is presented in the appendix as a table showing the percentage ratios. As a result, 667 couplets and 17 lines were analyzed. It was determined that 359 couplets and 9 lines dealt with religious personalities, 208 couplets and 5 lines dealt with legendary personalities, 101 couplets and 3 lines dealt with historical personalities. At the end of the study, it was determined that Osman Nevres did not differ from the tradition in terms of his treatment of religious, historical and legendary personalities.
