1849Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In contemporary fine black 1/3 leather bdg. Decorated gilt to spine. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 112 p. Extremely rare first edition of this Nabi's first-hand account of Mecca, Medina and the Hejaz during his pilgrimage in the late 17th century. This is the most celebrated literary pilgrimage narrative written in Ottoman Turkish. Nabi (1642-1712) was one of the prominent Ottoman poets and is considered a foremost exponent of the didactic trend (hikem-i tarz) in Ottoman Turkish literature. Nabi, whose given name was Yusuf, was born in Urfa (then known as Ruha) in 1052/1642. In 1082/1671 he took part in the Ottoman military campaign in Poland, in the retinue of Müsahib Pasha, (1640-1686). Having spent thirteen years in Istanbul, Nabi desired to go on a pilgrimage to Mecca. He was personally ready to undertake a journey to the Hijaz and to set down an eloquent account of his journey, the experience of his lifetime. Accordingly, having achieved a position of good standing with his patrons, Müsahib Mustafa Pasha and Mehmed IV, Nabi revived his longstanding desire to perform the hajj. In 1089/1678, at around 37 years of age, he set out in a small private caravan from Istanbul, passing through Konya, Urfa, Damascus, Jerusalem and Cairo, where he joined the main Egyptian pilgrimage caravan. The work, which is one of the most successful examples of Ottoman insa (artistic prose), includes historical, sociological, geographical and autobiographical information. In his preliminary remarks, Nabi indicates that he had received governmental help for his journey. He relates that he first obtained leave for the hajj from his patron Musahib Mustafa Pasha, and then submitted a qasida to Mehmed IV, describing the sacred places. The sultan provided Nabi a letter of recommendation addressed to Abdurrahman Pasha (d. 1691), governor of Egypt, ordering him to enable Nabi to make a comfortable journey. Nabi traveled in a small private caravan, since the caravan extended its route to Nabi's homeland, Urfa, and spent about fifty days there. It appears that he generally followed the usual route of the pilgrimage caravan from Istanbul to Damascus, passing through Scutari, Kartal, Gebze, Hersek, Iznik, Eskisehir, Seyitgazi, Aksehir, Ilgin, Ladik, Konia, Eregli, Adana, Misis bridge, Payas, Antioche, Aleppo (with a long detour to Urfa (Edessa) and back to Aleppo via Aintab), Hama, Hims and the Kuteyfe strait. He was fascinated with the splendid architecture of the buildings, the bazaars and the mosques built side by side by Kurdish and Circassian rulers and the Nile when he arrived in Cairo. Nabi gives a general description of the city of Cairo, the Nile, the two reservoirs of the city, parklands, the Ahram hills and the immediate neighborhood of the city. In Mecca, Nabi visited the sacred sites enthusiastically and performed the hajj on 77 January 1679. He gives a moving account of his experience as a pious emotional pilgrim. It appears that Nabi stayed in Mecca for more than twenty days. Immediately after 1 Muharrem 1090/12 February 1679, he set out for Medina, presumably in the Damascus caravan. While in Medina, Nabi served at the tomb of the Prophet by lighting the candles since his name was on the honorary list of attendants who were determined by the central government to serve the sanctuaries in Mecca and Medina. Nabi regards these services as a testimony to the legitimacy of Ottoman rule. He summarizes his journey of return from Medina to Damascus and to Istanbul in a few general words.

1786E' questa la stessa raccolta, con titolo e veste editoriale variat, ma con lo stesso contenuto e storie, delle "Delizie degli eruditi toscani" stampata sempre dal Cambiagi dal 1770 al 1789. Gamba 2705; Moreni I, 483; Razzolini, pag. 134-135 descrive tutti i volumi in maniera ineccepibile ed afferma essere "Raccolta assai rara". Edizione totalmente datata 1786, sconosciuta a tutta la bibliografia, da ritenersi rarissima, e che in parte deve considerarsi successiva alla prima, ma quanto agli ultimi volumi, antecedente alla medesima. Notevole curiosità editoriale, forse "escogitata" per far apparire la raccolta diversa da quella già pubblicata con il titolo "Delizie". 25 voll. In 8vo, con circa 9.000 pagine complessive e 5 grandi alberi genealogici con stemmi ripiegati fuori testo. Ottima legatura coeva in mezza pelle e carta decorata ai piatti. Dorsi con doppi tasselli bicolori, titoli e fregi in oro, tagli colorati. Il vol. 18 è proveniente dall'edizione Cambiagi del 1770-1789 ed è legato in piena pergamena coeva. Rarità, splendida la conservazione. Codice inv.1031114
