Due to the fact that sultans heda the aim of conquering, in the foundation period; in the Ottoman?s advacement period, the govertment?s being in the state of fetret(regression period) with Ankara War; Also after that Ottomans govertment?s being in this state of recovering period have hindered literature interest of Ottoman sultans who were supporting poets materially and spritually.Due to İstanbul?s being capital, there weren?t any more sultans and princes supporthing poets of Bursa. And this event have hindered formation of a literatural circle in Bursa. But insipite of this, In Bursa serious literatural culture have been formed. Bursa?s poet?s being in XVIth century tezkires, is the most importent proof of this.
