YIRMI SEKIZZÂDE MEHMED ÇELEBI, (1670-1732).
Paris sefaretnâmesi: Sultan Ahmed-i Sânî tarafindan 1132 senesinde Fransa krali onbesinci Lui nezdine gönderilen ricâl-i bâb-i âliyeden Yirmisekiz Mehmed efendinin takrîridir.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. Pages are untrimmed and not opened. 12mo. (17 x 12 cm). In Ottoman script. 151 p. Hegira-Hijri: 1306 = Gregorian: 1889. Yirmisekiz Mehmed Çelebi Efendi (died 1732), also Mehmed Efendi (sometimes spelled Mehemet Effendi in France), was an Ottoman statesman who was delegated as ambassador by the Sultan Ahmed III to Louis XV's France in 1720. He is remembered for his account of his embassy mission (a sefâretnâme, 'book of embassy'). Yirmisekiz Mehmed Çelebi was born in Edirne to a family of Georgian descent. His date of birth is unknown. He is the son of an officer in the Janissary corps, Süleyman Aga, who died during a campaign to Pécs. Mehmed Çelebi himself was enrolled in the Janissary corps, and since he had served in the 28th battalion ("orta" in Janissary terminology) of the corps, he came to be known with the nickname Yirmisekiz ("twenty-eight" in Turkish) for his entire life. His descendants, including his son who became a grand vizier, also carried the name in the form of Yirmisekizzade ('son of twenty-eight'). He rose through the military hierarchy and then oriented his career to the service of the finances of the state, as superintendent for the Ottoman mint first, and as chief imperial accountant (defterdar) by the reign of Ahmed III. In 1720, while in that position, he was assigned as Ottoman ambassador to Louis XV's France and sent to Paris. His embassy of eleven months was notable for being the first ever foreign representation of a permanent nature for the Ottoman Empire. On his return to the Ottoman capital, Mehmed Çelebi presented his contacts, experiences and observations to the Sultan in the form of a book. His sefâretnâme is one of the most important examples of the homonymous genre, both for its literary merits and in terms of the insights it provides on his time and environment. He describes his journey to France, the 40-days quarantine in Toulon for fear of plague, his journey through Bordeaux towards Paris, his reception by Louis XV, the ceremonies and the social events to which he participated, notably a night at the theatre, places of interest in Paris, the curiosity with which he examines the Western culture and the curiosity he aroused among his Western interlocutors, for instance his days of fasting in Ramadan becoming a reason for public gathering for curious Parisian women. Aside from setting the pace and nature of the long-term trend of Westernization in the Ottoman Empire, his embassy also had immediate repercussions in the Ottoman Empire, notably in the form of the first printing house managed by Ibrahim Müteferrika, a Hungarian convert, which published books in Turkish, having been opened in the same year of 1720 as a direct consequence of Mehmed Çelebi's mission in Paris, and under the personal protection and auspices of his son Yirmisekizzade Mehmed Said Pasha, later grand vizier. Constantinople's renowned Sadabad Gardens, one of the symbols of the Tulip Era were also largely inspired by the gardening techniques used in Tuileries Palace, described in length by the author/ambassador. His book was translated into French in 1757 and also into other Western languages afterwards. (Source: Wikipedia). Özege 17660. Koray 1870. Second Edition. Rare.

[ABDULKADIR] CÂMÎ [BAYKURT sic. BAYKUT] (Fizan meb'usu), (1877-1949).
[FUTURE of OTTOMANISM] Osmanliligin âtîsi: Dostlari ve düsmanlari.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. Slightly chipped spine. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script. 48 p. Osmanliligin âtisi: Dostlar ve düsmanlar. Roumi: 1331 = Gregorian 1915. Baykurt was a Turkish politician and soldier who served as deputy of first period of the Turkish Republican Parliament. He was first minister of Turkish foreign affairs in the Republican period. He participated as an officer in the Battle of Tripoli. The province of Tripoli and Fizan were accepted as places of exile in the last period of the Ottoman Empire. This tractate was previously serialized in Efham newspaper. "Future of Ottomanism". Ottomanism was a concept which developed prior to the First Constitutional Era of the Ottoman Empire. Its proponents believed that it could solve the social issues that the empire was facing. It was strongly influenced by thinkers such as Montesquieu and Rousseau and the French Revolution. It promoted equality among the millets. The idea originated amongst the Young Ottomans in areas such as the acceptance of all separate ethnicities in the Empire regardless of their religion, i.e. they were all 'Ottomans' with equal rights. Put simply, Ottomanism stated that all subjects were equal before the law. Ideally, all citizens would share a geographical area, a language, culture, and a sense of a 'non-Ottoman' party who were different than them. The essence of the millet system was not dismantled, but secular organizations and policies were applied. Primary education, conscription, head tax and military service were to be applied to non-Muslims and Muslims alike. The major precursors to Ottomanism were the Reformation Edict of 1856, which promised full equality regardless of religion, and the Ottoman Nationality Law of 1869, which created a common Ottoman citizenship irrespective of religious or ethnic affiliation. Ottomanism was rejected by many in the non-Muslim millets and by many Muslims. To the former, it was perceived as a step towards dismantling their traditional privileges. Meanwhile, the Muslims saw it as the elimination of their own superior position. There were claims that Ottomanism was a reaction to the Tanzimat, the era of intensive restructuring of the Ottoman Empire by the bureaucratic elite. The inauguration of the Ottoman Parliament contributed to the spirit of reform as all millets were represented in this bicameral assembly. Ottomanism was a form of nationalism, likely inspired and created as a reaction to European ideas of nationalism and the growing Western involvement in the Ottoman Empire. Ottomanism enjoyed a revival during the Young Turk Revolution of 1908, and during the Second Constitutional Era. It lost most of its adherents during the First Balkan War of 1912-13, when the Ottoman Empire lost most of its European territories inhabited by Christian minorities and large number of Muslims fled from those areas while many Christians fled from the remaining Ottoman territories. Disappointment in the failure of Ottomanism was integral to the birth of Turkish nationalism during the next decade. (Source for Ottomanism: Wikipedia). First and Only Edition.

YUNUS EMRE, (13th century).; ERZINCANÎ SEYH HAYYAT VEHBI (TERZI BABA), (1779-1848).
[DIWAN of YUNUS EMRE] Isbu kitab-i mu?stetabin dirununda kutbu'l ârifîn mesayih-i azamdan Mevlana Âsik Yunus Emre hazretlerinin divân-i lâtiflerile halifesi Âsik Yunus hazretlerinin divân-i kemâllari ve kezalik mesayih-i azamdan Erzincanî Seyh-i Hayyat Vehbî hazretlerinin Kenzü'l-miftâh kitabi hâsiyede tâb ve temsîn kilinmisdir.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Modern cloth bdg. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script. 188 p., ills. Lithograph. Divân-i Âsik Yunus Emre. [On 'derkenar'] Kenzü'l-miftah ve Serh-i Kaside-i Yunus Emre. Yunus Emre was a sufi poet in 13th century. The information on his life is fragmentary, based on what he writes in his Diwan and on stories told within the Bektashi tradition. He is the author of a Diwan. This Diwan contains 417 poems, all of which bar one are ghazals. He mostly used the Turkic system of versifying, based on the number of syllables and stress position rather than the elaborate rules of Arab-Persian prosody. He used the Old Anatolian Turkish language, which was understood by everyone in its period, with very few Arabic or Persian words, and he contributed greatly to the establishment of a Turkish mystical vocabulary based on classic Sufi terms. The most recurrent themes in Yunus Emre's Diwan are mystic love(âsk), the Friend (dost), and how to be a dervish. Yet he is no recluse and the conditions of everyday life are reflected in his poems. His easily understandable religious and moral advice is couched in a lyrical language that is heartfelt, sincere and often highly passionate. His poetry, set to music, was of central importance in the dissemination of Sufi teachings in Anatolia, and influenced the tekke poetry of the following centuries. The intense religious and humane feeling in his poetry has not lost its appeal today. (Source: A history of Seljuks, Ibrahim Kafesoglu). On derkenar text, there's 'Kenzü'l mifta hby Erzincanî Terzi Baba and annotation of 'qasidah' by Yunus Emre. Erzincanî's verse "Kenzil Fütuh" composed of his Sufi and mystic poems was compiled and transferred into verse by Haci Hafiz Mehmed Rüsdi Efendi and published as "Kenzü'l-miftah". It is very important poetry book on sufism and Islamic mysticism. Rare. Two undated copies in Özege pre-1885 edition. Özege 23525. OCLC: 1030936501.

EKREM HAKKI AYVERDI, (1899-1984).
19. asirda Istanbul haritasi.
Very Good Turkish Modern cloth bdg. 4to. (30 x 24 cm). In Turkish. 27 p. text; 21 numerous map feuilles in Ottoman script and modern Turkish. 19. asirda Istanbul haritasi. Ekrem Hakki Ayverdi was raised at a time in which Istanbul was undergoing its late Ottoman-early Republican period. Apart from his persona as an engineer-architect, restorer, and architectural historian, he was a collector passionately dedicated to Ottoman art. Undertaking the construction of different public buildings in Istanbul, Bursa and Edirne, as well as the restoration of many architectural works, Ayverdi not only brought together the most select and refined works of Ottoman art, which had begun to lose its prestige amidst the changing values of high culture in the time he lived, but he also paid particular attention to their conservation and preservation. Ayverdi's two seminal corpuses that study Ottoman architecture from its early days until the end of the Mehmed II era, as well as its examples in Roumelia, continue to maintain their place as the most important reference books for those working in this field. This is a detailed research on a 19th century map of Istanbul city.
