Fıtnat Hanım from Ordu in the Context of Love from Women's Language in Folk and Divan Poetry and Love in Her Poems

Summary/Abstract: In folk and classical Turkish poetry, love has been the subject of koşma, ghazals and many other poems; Thousands of poems have been written on this subject. In these poems, which are generally written by male poets, it is seen that even if love is a reality, one falls in love with love itself. Although their number is small, women poets in Folk and Divan poetry addressed love and lover with a woman's sensibility and sensitivity. Döne Sultan, Yeter Ana, Âşık Sarıcakiz in folk poetry; Leylâ Hanım and Zübeyde Fıtnat Hanım are among them in divan poetry. One of these poets is Fıtnat Hanım (1830-1909), from Hazinedar Oğulları the Aybastı district of the province of Ordu. Fıtnat Hanım started poetry with the encouragement of Süleyman Nazif and they had a love affair with Ahmet Mithat Efendi that remained in the letters. Fıtnat Hanım, who is legendary for her beauty, has a small divan where a few of her poems have survived. In her poems, a woman expressed love with her grace and elegance; She talked about “mey, sagar, peymane and mahbub”. While addressing the lover as "dilber, âfet, meh, rose-cheek", it is striking that he was under the influence of Classical Divan Poetry. In this study, the view of women poets on love in folk and divan poetry, and Ordulu Fıtnat Hanım and her poems, which have almost never been emphasized, have been examined in the context of the understanding of love.
