Abstract :

Medical schools, army schools and civil service schools were opened in western manners in Political Reform Period in Ottoman States in the nineteenth century in order to teach classical literature and it’s theories with the Turkish books that were prepared. Eloquence and distribution of these books which had Turkish or Arabic examples were prepared and until twentieth century, approximately for fifty years, various volumes of pieces within this context were made in this period. The Turkish books about rhythm that were written again in this period brought “Turkish Prosody” term for the usage of science world. It is possible to name this period “National Eloquence Period” where classical literature information books were written in Turkish. The usage of Turkish in verses following (and afterwards) Arabic and Persian course in verses by means of prosody and the usage of Arabic letters in Turkish spelling is concurrent. This condition led the poets to parry problems of rhythm and spelling, and this led to the discovery of a verse spelling method which can be named as “Prosody Spelling”. Within the frame of this study, people in literature who put their thoughts on works in National Eloquence Period, Eloquence, Prosody and Spelling will be studied and especially Sa’îd Pasha’s “Mîzânü’l-Edeb” from Diyarbakır and Reşîd’s “Nazariyyât-ı Edebiyye” pieces will be taken to consideration.
