RECOMMENDATION OF BAHIR AND VIZIERS IN TURKISH TREATISES OF ARUZA

Abstract

In the article, the issue of bahir and vezin, which was written in Sheikh Ahmed Terazî's Fünunu'l Belağa, Ali Şir Nevaî's Mîzânü'l Evzân and Zahiriddin Muhammed Babür's Aruz Treatise, which are Turkish treatises of aruz, was analyzed; It was pointed out that in the first Turkish treatise, Fünunu'l Belağa, the classification and recommendation of the bahirs were carried out in a different way. In the treatise, information is shared such as the fact that 40 bahrin were examined theoretically, that 20 of these bahrs were not found in the treatises created until Sheikh Ahmed Terazî, and that they were invented by the author himself. Ali Şir Navaî examines 19 bahirs and about 160 verses related to these bahirs in Mîzânü'l Awzân; In Babur's Treatise on Aruz, two more bahirs, Ariz and Amik, are added to Navai's records and recommended, resulting in 21 bahir and 537 wazins in the Risale. The author of the article came to the conclusion that the science of Turkish aruz reached its peak during the Timurid period.
