- Scope & Content:
-
This volume contains a mecmua of Ottoman Turkish poetry that appears to be copied in the same hand throughout, although the format of the manuscript undergoes several changes. It is divided into several portions:
(I) ff 1v-9v : Kasideler of Necati and Nef'i, the latter being written in the margin. This section is more finished and ornate than the others, with a good unvan and panels decorated with conventionalized foliage in blue and gold. It begins with a na't, followed by the first kaside of Nef'i. The last poem is a kaside (of Baki?) in honour of Murat III ;
(f 10 is blank but ruled)
(II) ff 11r-16v : Shorter poems by Yahya Efendi, Haleti, Azmizade Efendi, Nef'i, Nevizade Atayi, and also nazireler by Şeyhi, Atayi, and Rızai ;
(III) ff 17r-71r : Poems primarily without headings comprised primarily of kasideler and gazeller by Baki, Necati, Selami, Semai, Halisi, Faizi, Riyazi, Nef'i, Rıza'i, and Haleti.
Folios 25v-26r; 32r; 36v-37r; 54v-55r; 56r; ad 71v are all blank.
This manuscript was likely copied in the 17th century CE.
