| description | Osmanzâde Tâ’ib Ahmed (d.1136), one of the leading poets of the Ahmed III era, is called melikü’ş-şu’arâ/re’îs-i şâ’irân based on a hatt-i humayun quoted by Safâyî. However, a document review in the Ottoman archives of a hatt-i humayun manuscript belonging to Ahmet III revealed that Safâyî’s transmission regarding Tâ’ib was incorrect. Thus, it is evident that Osmanzâde Tâ’ib was praised; however, he was neither referred to as melikü’ş-şu’arâ nor was he assigned such a mission. The recent discovery necessitates a reassessment of Osmanzâde Tâ’ib. In this study, the personal and professional life of Osmanzâde Tâ’ib as well as his patronage relations and approach to other poets were summarized. Furthermore, prominent poets of the Istanbul literary structures of 1133/1721 are introduced by emphasizing their situation in that era to clarify their positions in literary circles. After stating the positions of these poets at the state levels and describing their patronage relations, the views of Sâlim, Safâyî, and other poets concerning these poets are presented. Hence, after sampling the text of Ahmed III’s hatt-i humayun regarding poetry and poets, the complete and original text about Osmanzâde Tâ’ib is presented. The views of the biographical sources of the era of Tâ’ib are introduced, and Tâ’ib’s relations with other poets are explained. Therefore, it was stated that Osmanzâde Tâ’ib was not a melikü’ş-şu’arâ/re’îs-i şâ’irân; however, he was a great poet who gained the appreciation of Ahmed III and Damat Ibrahim Pasha. |
