RESEARCH LEADS
Layer 3 Inference: Episode 463-A features a codicological and philological examination of a monumental Chagatay Turkic witness of Tabari's universal chronicle (Târîhnâme-i Tabarî, 834 folios / 1668 pages), preserved in Saint Petersburg. The speaker analyzes its complex textual genealogy: originally written in Arabic by Tabari, translated into Persian by Bal'ami for the Samanids, and translated into Chagatay Turkic by Vâhidî-i Belhî (Ədaül-Kitabdar Vahidi el-Belxi) under the patronage of the Shaybanid prince Abd al-Latif Sultan ibn Kuchkunji Khan. The translation was completed on 16 Dhu al-Hijjah 928 AH (~6 November 1522 CE) and copied by Abd al-Majid ibn Hafiz al-Kalam. Codicological highlights include cosmological world diagrams, cross-hatched genealogical grid tables (mürəbbə), and a Safavid waqf seal (Vakf-ı Halîfe-i Sefevî).
SCIENTIFIC SUMMARY
Episode 463-A opens with traditional milestone blessings and manuscript screening.
The speaker introduces Object A: a monumental archival facsimile of the Chagatay Turkic Târîhnâme-i Tabarî (834 folios / 1668 pages), preserved in Saint Petersburg.
Codicological inspection reveals world map diagrams (iklimler), cross-hatched genealogical grid tables (mürəbbə), fine Chagatay Nasta'liq script, and a Safavid waqf seal inscription (Vakf-ı Halîfe-i Sefevî).
Philological analysis covers the complete textual lineage of the work from Tabari's Arabic original to Bal'ami's Persian version, and finally Vâhidî-i Belhî's Chagatay Turkic translation.
Colophon analysis records explicit translation and copy details: produced for Shaybanid prince Abd al-Latif Sultan ibn Kuchkunji Khan, completed on Thursday forenoon, 16 Dhu al-Hijjah 928 AH (~6 November 1522 CE), and copied by Abd al-Majid ibn Hafiz al-Kalam.
Methodological standards are maintained by clearly separating observable manuscript features from speaker commentary.
The session contributes supremely to the master corpus by documenting Shaybanid court literature, Chagatay historiography, and Central Asian manuscript provenance.
The episode concludes with plans for Part B.

Çağatayca Târîhnâme-i Tabarî ve Şeybânî Saray Çevirisi: 463. Bölüm (A) Tahlili
Türk tarih yazıcılığında Tabarî kroniğinin Farsça ve Türkçe tercümeleri, İslâm ve Doğu dünyasının evrensel tarihini Doğu Türkçesine aktaran en devasa abideler arasındadır.
463-A bölümde, Saint Petersburg arşivlerinde muhafaza edilen (834 varak / 1668 sayfa tutarındaki) Çağatayca Târîhnâme-i Tabarî yazma nüshası mercek altına alınmıştır. Oturumun giriş kısmında, eserin kodikolojik özellikleri (dünya haritası ve iklim şemaları, kareli/çaprazlı şecere tabloları, çerçeveli metin düzeni ve Vakf-ı Halîfe-i Sefevî mührü) detaylı bir şekilde tahlil edilmiştir.
Oturumda ayrıca, eserin tercüme ve istinsah kolofonu okunmuş; metnin orijinal Arapça Tabarî kroniğinden Bal'amî’nin Farsça çevirisine, oradan da Şeybânî şehzadesi Abdüllatif Sultan b. Küçükküncü Han adına Vâhidî-i Belhî (Ədaül-Kitabdar Vahidi el-Belxi) tarafından Çağatay Türkçesine aktarıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Çeviri ve istinsah 16 Zilhicce 928 (6 Kasım 1522) Perşembe günü kuşluk vaktinde tamamlanmış ve müstensih Əbdülməcid b. Hâfizü'l-Kelâm tarafından kaleme alınmıştır.
Bu yönüyle oturum, hem Şeybânî saray edebiyatı hem de Çağatay tarih yazıcılığı açısından mühim bir çalışma olmuştur.
