CHRONOLOGY OF RESEARCHES MADE ON OPUS OF HASAN KAFI IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Summary/Abstract: This article presents chronology of researches made on opus of Hasan Kafi in B&H. During the 20th century, scholars here have dedicated much attention to Kafi’s scientific and literary opus, in fact all serious and comprehensive studies of the subject in Bosnian language date to this period. Apart from his autobiographical work Niẓām al-’ulamā’, the earliest data about Kafi’s work is recorded by Atai, Hajji Halifa and Evlija Čelebi, whose research works have been used as reference by all the consequent authors. First comprehensive study of Hasan Kafi’s bibliography in our language was published by Safet-beg Bašagić as a part of his doctoral theses. After Bašagić, a noteworthy chronology and text about Kafi’s opus was written by Muhamed Tajjib Okić, whose research work was later used as a reference by all those who carried out research on Hasan Kafi’s bibliography. Thorough and well-rounded data of Kafi’s bibliography in the first half of the 20th century was published by late Mehmed Handžić (rahmetu-llahi alejhi). By the end of the sixth decade of the 20th century, after three decades of silence, Kafi was brought back to the centre of academic interest by the work of Dr. Hazim Šabanović. In the period between writings of Handžić and Šabanović, catalogues of oriental manuscripts were published and those make an indispensable source for studding Kafi’s bibliography. The period after Dr. Šabanović’s text is marked by additions made on Kafi’s bibliography with information about newly found manuscripts and by translations of his work to our language. This article also presents the works on the subject written by Dr. Fehim Nametak, Dr. Omer Nakičević, Dr. Muhamed Ždralović and it mentions articles and publishing of other authors and translators.
