    No full text
    Seyyid Ali Sultan is among the most prominent spiritual leaders of the Bektashi Order. Besides his distinguished role during the formative period of the Order, the hospice he founded near Dimetoka preserved its central position throughout the Bektashi history. It must be expected that such a prominent shaykh who had a decisive influence on both the formation process of the Order and the later developments through his hospice -, would attain an outstanding position within the Bektashi collective memory and the traditional knowledge. This article aims to discover how Kizildeli is depicted in the Bektashi tradition. It will first classify the stores of the traditional knowledge (sources) under four categories. Then it will evaluate how these sources reflected the portrait of Seyyid Ali Sultan. This article also aims to make some observations on the dynamics of the traditional knowledge through examining the relationship of these sources with each other

    This study deals with the publication of Seyit Ali Sultan Menakib, which describes the transition of Turks to Rumelia and Balkans. In addition to the effort dedicated for the publication of this study, the lack of attention for the protection of the Seyit Ali Sultan Menakib's manuscripts is another point to be concentrated. Naturally, this study points not only to the importance of Seyit Ali Sultan and Menakib in the area of Balkan researches, but also to the problem of lack of serious work during the previous publication attempts of the Menakib. There are many copies of the manuscript of Seyit Ali Sultan Menakib, telling about the journey of forty saints from Gallipoli to Rumelia and Balkans. Among these, the copy which indicates that Seyit Ali Sultan was contemporary with Orhan Gazi was found in the Kaygusuz Sultan Dergah in Egyptian Cairo. This copy was given by Ahmet Sirri Baba to Salih Niyazi Dedebaba in Tirana, Albania. A long time no trace of this manuscript was found, and many researchers working on this issue struggled to reach this manuscript. As a result, Seyit Ali Sultan and his Menakib should be considered as a main source and thus studied in the Balkan researches, considering the internal meaning of the text, the historical personality of the people whom the text deals with and the tracing the followers of these people until today. In this study, the importance of Seyit Ali Sultan and his Menakib will be emphasized and also some problems arising from one of the previous publication of the manuscript will be pointed out

    The aspirants of Seyyit Ali Sultan Association came from Western Thrace to Anatolia and settled in Musulca Village. Although they performed their cem rituals in the houses of a dede or someone neighboring him on Thursdays in the past, today they perform their cem rituals in djemevis on Sundays because of the immigration from villages into cities as a result of the change in both economic and social conditions. In this study, some examples of cem rituals belonging to Musulca Village and some quotations of hidrellez tradition were given place

    YÖK Tez: 670327Hacı Bektâş-ı Velî'ye nispet edilen Bektaşîlik, Orta Asya'nın düşünce yapısı Yesevîlik'ten tevellüt ederek Anadolu'da yaşayan Türkmenler arasında doğmuştur. Hacı Bektâş, Suluca Karahöyük'te kendi zaviyesini kurarak öğretilerini halifeleri ile Anadolu ve Balkanlara yayma imkanı bulmuştur. Hacı Bektâş-ı Velî öğretisi ile şekillenen Bektaşîlik, Balım Sultan ile kurumsallaşmıştır. Hacı Bektâş-ı Velî'nin halîfelerinden Sarı Saltuk, 1260'lı yıllarda Trakya ve Balkanlarda irşat ve tebliğ faaliyetlerinde bulunmuş, daha sonraki süreçte Seyyid Ali Sultan (Kızıl Deli) Rumeli fetihlerine erenleri ile katılarak Balkanların İslamlaşmasına ve Bektâşiliğin yayılmasına vesile olmuştur. Seyyid Ali Sultan'ın Dimetoka yakınlarında Kızıl Deli çayının kenarına kurduğu Kızıl Deli tekkesi, Batı Trakya ve Bulgaristan Bektaşîleri açısından önemli bir merkez olmuştur. Trakya ve Balkanlarda Bektaşîlik'i Seyyid Ali Sultan, Ali Koç Baba, Otman Baba gibi Bektâşi önderlerin kurduğu ve bugün sayısı 1700'ü bulan tekke/zaviye merkezli yapılandığı bilinmektedir. Bektâşilik geleneğinin en erken temsilcilerinden biri olan Seyyid Ali Sultan'ın Velâyetnâmesi, Bektâşi inanç esasları ile adab ve erkânını ortaya koyması açısından önemli bir kaynak olarak görülmüştür. Velâyetnâme kelâmi açıdan değerlendirildiğinde, tevhid, nübüvvet, Kur'an, ahiret, haram-helal, cennet-cehennem, kaza-kader inançları açısından Ehli Sünnet akidesini referans aldığı görülmektedir. Tasavvuf geleneğinde olduğu gibi rüyaya ayrı bir değer verilerek Hz. Peygamber'in görüldüğü rüyalara itibar edilmiştir. Hz. Peygamberler'in mûcizeleri gibi görülen velilerin kerametleri, Seyyid Ali Sultan'ın saygınlık kazanmasında, muhiplerin sayılarının artmasında, gaza ruhunun askerlere aşılanmasında etkili olmuştur. Namaz, zekât ve dua gibi ibadetlerin uygulamasında ise Ehl-i Sünnet'in takip edildiği açıkça anlaşılmaktadır.Bektashism, which is attributed to Hacı Bektash Veli, was born among Turkmens living in Anatolia by rising the intellectual structure of Central Asia from Yesevism. Hacı Bektash by establishing his own zawiya in Suluca Karahöyük, had the opportunity to spread his teachings to the Anatolian and Balkans with his khalif. Bektashism, shaped by the teachings of Hacı Bektash Veli, was institutionalized with Balım Sultan. Sarı Saltuk, one of the khalifs of Hacı Bektash Veli, was engaged in the guidance and notification activities in Thrace and the Balkans in the 1260s, and later on, Seyyid Ali Sultan (Kızıl Deli) participated in the conquests of Rumelia, led to Islamization of the Balkans and the spread of Bektashism. Kızıl Deli lodge, built by Seyyid Ali Sultan near the Dimetoka, Kızıl Deli stream, was an important center for Western Thrace and Bulgarian Bektashi. Bektashism is a lodge/zawiya-centered, which has a number of 1700 today, structure established by Bektashi leaders such as Seyyid Ali Sultan, Ali Koç Baba and Otman Baba in Thrace and the Balkans. Velâyetnâme of Seyyid Ali Sultan, one of the earliest representatives of the tradition of bektashism, was seen as an important source in terms of the belief principles of Bektashi. When Velâyetnâme is evaluated in terms of kalam, it is seen that the Ahl al-Sunnah faith is taken as reference in terms of unity, prophethood, Qur'an, hereafter, haram-halal, heaven-hell, belief of destiny. As in the Sufi tradition, the dreams that the Prophet saw were respected by giving a different value to the dream. The miracles of the scholars, who were seen as the prodigies of the Prophets, have been effective in gaining respect for Seyyid Ali Sultan, increasing the number of the followers, and instilling the spirit of the battle into the soldiers. It is clear that Ahl Al-Sunnah is followed in the practice of worship such as namaz, zakat and praying

    06.03.2018 tarihli ve 30352 sayılı Resmi Gazetede yayımlanan “Yükseköğretim Kanunu İle Bazı Kanun Ve Kanun Hükmünde Kararnamelerde Değişiklik Yapılması Hakkında Kanun” ile 18.06.2018 tarihli “Lisansüstü Tezlerin Elektronik Ortamda Toplanması, Düzenlenmesi ve Erişime Açılmasına İlişkin Yönerge” gereğince tam metin erişime açılmıştır.Çalışmanın amacı tarihi keramet motiflerini inceleyerek menşelerine inmeye çalışmaktır. Çalışma XIII-XIV. yüzyıllarda yaşamış olan Abdal Musa'nın hayatı ve XIV-XV. yüzyıllarda yaşayan Seyyid Ali Sultan'ın hayatı ile beraber velayetnamelerde bulunan keramet motiflerini kapsamaktadır. Anadolu'daki siyasi hareketlilik ile beraber bölgeye sûfiliğin yerleşmesiyle çalışmada bahsedilen Seyyid Ali Sultan ve Abdal Musa da etkili birer evliya kimliği ile ortaya çıkmışlardır. Abdal Musa ve Seyyid Ali Sultan velayetnamelerinde bulunan keramet motiflerinin ele alındığı bu çalışmada bahsedilen kerametler daha sonraları bu kişilerin dervişleri tarafından ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Keramet motiflerinin bir kısmı İslamiyet öncesi ortaya çıkan kültler ve İslamiyet'in hayatımıza girmesiyle benzerlikler göstererek fakat ayrı temellere dayanan birkaç hadiseden oluşmaktadır. Bunlarla beraber İslamiyet ile hayatımıza girmiş kavramlar veya varlıklar çevresinde oluşmuş hadiseler de mevcuttur. Bundan dolayı incelediğimiz bu keramet motiflerinin tarihi arka planlarına da yer vermeye çalıştık. Araştırmamızda üç keramet motifini Abdal Musa Velayetnamesi'nden, diğer üç keramet motifini ise Seyyid Ali Sultan Velayetnamesi'nden alarak toplam altı keramet motifi incelenmiştir. Bu motifler uygun bir sıraya göre ele alınmıştır. Öncelikli olarak keramet motiflerinin başlangıç noktasına ulaşılması hedeflenip bu motiflerin kökenlerinin nereden geldiği tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. İkinci olarak da aynı dönem veya yakın dönemde yazılan velayetnamelerdeki benzer keramet motiflerindeki olaylar ele alınmıştır. Son olarak da velayetnamelerdeki ana motif incelenerek değerlendirilmiştirThe aim of our study is to examine the historical karamat motifs and try to descend to their origins by dealing with the similar ones. Our study covers the life of Abdal Musa who lived in the end of XIII century and XIV century, and the life of Seyyid Ali Sultan who lived in the XIV century and the beginning of the XV century. With the establishment of Sufism after the political mobility in Anatolia, Seyyid Ali Sultan and Abdal Musa emerged with the identity of an effective evliya. In our study, the karâmat motifs found in the velayetname's of these two saints are mentioned. These miracles were not revealed in their assumed occurrence period but later by the dervishes of these people. Some of the miraculous/karamat motifs mentioned in our study are the cults that occured before Islam and they are consisted of a few incidents that show differences -becuase of their entrance of our lives after Islam- but based on the same foundations. In addition to these, there are some incidents that have been formed in the context of some concepts and entities that came into our lives with Islam. Therefore, in our study we tried to give place to the historical background of these miracle/karamat motifs. In our work, there are six karamat motives examined three of them belongs to Abdal Musa and the other three belongs to Seyyid Ali Sultan. These motifs were dealt with in a proper order, and primarily they're dealt with considering the origin of the karamat motifs by trying to detect where they come from. Secondly, the events in similar karamat motifs in velayetname's written in the same period or in the near term are discussed. Finally, the main motif in velayetname's was examined and evaluated

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
