Religious-mystical elements in the Dîvânçe of Şebâbî

Dîvân poetry, which is accepted to have started with Hodja Dehhânî in the 13th century, was also a bright period when the masters of religious-mystical poetry (Mevlanâ, Ahmet Fakih, Sultan Veled, Şeyyad Hamza) lived and practiced their arts in Anatolia. The idea that influential poets such as Necatî, Nef'î, Nâbi, Hayâlî, Fuzûlî, Nedim, Şeyh Galib lost their influence after the 19th century and that divan poetry was outdated in the 19th century with Keçecizâde İzzet Molla. In the 21st century, ıt decays with the existence of those who work with it. In this context, Prof. Dr. Osman Kemal Kayra's Şebâbî Dîvânçe is a very valuable work in that it belongs to our age and reveals dîvân poetry from today's point of view. It does not take several centuries to know the value of the poet and his work. This thesis study should be seen as an important step in order for "Şâir-i Sâhir", which uses religious-mystical elements, which is the raw material of dîvân poetry, to take its place in old Turkish literature. The Şebâbî's Dîvânçe is perhaps the product of the escape adventure of a linguistics professor who devoted his life to working on the Turkish language, from linguistics to the language of the heart. In the study, information about Şebâbî's Life, Works, Pseudonym and the interview made with Şebâbî over Zoom program is given and 7 chapters that make up Şebâbî's Dîvânçe: münâcaat, mevlid-i sagîr, na't, gazels, kıt'as, murabba, and müfreds were introduced in terms of form and content, the dîvân was discussed in terms of religion and mysticism. This thesis has been studied to research, examine and introduce other dîvân poets who wrote in the 21st century and to prove that the tradition of dîvân poetry still exists. It is thought that this study will lead the other divan poets of our century to be unearthed and analyzed academically.
