RESEARCH LEADS
Layer 3 Inference: Episode 486 begins with an extensive intellectual and historiographical reflection on the reception of Ottoman texts in Europe, questioning why non-Western intellectual contributions are often overshadowed by victorious European narratives and examining the timeline of Ottoman book translations in pre-revolutionary France. The second half transitions to a detailed philological examination of an Ottoman poetical miscellany (Mecmû‘a-i Eş‘âr / Divan-ı Sâbit), reading through classical rubais, bilingual Persian-Turkish verses, and poetry by Sâbit and Şehri, concluding with a 1071 AH colophon mentioning Ali Çelebi and Seferquli.
SCIENTIFIC SUMMARY
Episode 486 opens with philosophical reflections on historiography, Eurocentric bias, and pre-revolutionary French translations of Ottoman texts.

PUBLICATION / WEB ARTICLE
Osmanlı-Fransız Entelektüel İlişkileri ve Divan-ı Sâbit / Mecmû‘a-i Eş‘âr Tahlili: 486. Bölüm Tahlili
Tarih yazıcılığında galip gelen medeniyetlerin perspektifinin egemen olması ve Doğu ile Batı arasındaki entellektüel alışverişlerin tek taraflı okunması, ilmi eleştirinin odak noktalarından biridir.
bölümde, programın giriş kısmında Osmanlı eserlerinin Fransa’daki erken dönem tercüme faaliyetleri ve Avrupa aydınlanması üzerindeki olası etkileri üzerine felsefi ve historiografik bir tahlil yapılmıştır. Oturumun ikinci kısmında ise Divan-ı Sâbit ve çeşitli şairlerin gazel ve rubailerini içeren bir Mecmû‘a-i Eş‘âr nüshası mercek altına alınmıştır.
Oturumda Sâbit ve Şehri’ye ait manzumeler okunmuş; nüshanın sonunda yer alan ve 1071 hicri (1660–1661 miladi) tarihini taşıyan, Ali Çelebi ile Seferquli’nin adlarının zikredildiği kolofon ve hatime kayıtları tetkik edilmiştir.
Bu yönüyle oturum, hem Osmanlı şiir mecmuası geleneği hem de Doğu-Batı entelektüel tarihine dair eleştirel bir yaklaşım sunması bakımından mühim bir çalışma olmuştur.
