CHRONOGRAMS / CHRONICLE OF TWO MOSTAR DIWAN POETS FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE 17TH CENTURY IN ISTANBUL

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the chronograms of two Mostar poets from the early 17th century, who, in addition to poems in diwans and poetic collections, were also known as calligraphers and chronograph poets at various objects in Istanbul, mainly fountains and turbets. The chronograms are preserved today and can be found on the objects they were written for. One of the poets is Hukmi Mostarac known as the Imperial Chronicler and Calligrapher, and the other is Ahmed Rushdi Mostarac, the poet of the complete diwan of poems and the humble sheikh who was known both in the Palace and among the ordinary world. Their chronograms on the monuments in the city of Istanbul indicate their popularity both in the times they lived and centuries after their death.
