POETRY COMPILATIONS AND A COMPILATION WITH “CELALİ” NICKNAME

Summary/Abstract: Poetry compilations accepted as an important source of folk litareture have played a significant role in delivering the works of literary figures, which were not analysed systemically but produced by the folk. Many definitions have been made as to what a poetry collection is. Some of these definitions are presented in our study. The poetry compilation we tried to read is produced with “Celali” nickname. At the beginning of the compilation “Raif Yelkenci Poetry Compilation No:8” is written. On the next page a date of 1622, in Latin numericals, is presented. There are 23 poems in the compilation composed in two lines. The first poem is in the style of a satire. Though there are many different poetic forms, a lyrical poem is also added. We presented the difficulties and solutions for the problems encountered during the reading of the compilation.
