Notes

Ḥekīm Bereket’s Tuḥfe-i Mübārizī is a Turkish medical work written in the name of a certain melikü’l-ümerāʾ Mübārizeddīn (ملك الامراء مبارز الدين) (Ar.malik al-umarāʾ ) , the identity of whom has been the subject of dispute. M. M. Koman claims that he was Aydınoğlu Mübārizeddīn Mehmed Bey (d. 1334) who served as the commander-in-chief (melikü’l-ümerāʾ; malik al-umarāʾ) of the Germiyanid army before establishing himself as an independent warlord based in Birgi (İzmir İli, Turkey)‏ in around 1308 [1308 CE], and came to found the Aydınid dynasty. M. C. Ş. Tekindağ reads the name of the patron in the Konya manuscript malik al-umarāʾ Mubāriz al-Dīn al-Mujāhid al-Ghāzī Khalīfat Alp b. Tūlī b. Turkānshāh (ملك الامرا مباريزالدين المجاهد الغازي خليفت آلب بن تولي نن تركانشاه), whom he identifies as a Seljuq amīr from the early thirteenth century [1200-1299 CE]. Most scholars, however, remain sceptical of Tekindağ’s identification, and consider the patron to be the Aydınid bey. The author states that he first composed an Arabic version of the work, entitled Lubāb al-nukhab(لباب النخب), which he then translated first into Persian and then into Turkish. Based on Ibn Sīnā's Qānūn (قانون), Ḥekīm Bereket's Tuḥfe-i Mübārizī consists of fours sections, with an introduction on the basics of Galenic humoural theory, a description of illnesses, maintaining health through diet and lifestyle, and the control of emotions and exposure to the elements. The fourth section concludes with an overview of treatments. Of interest is the work's identification of three kinds of malaria. The work survives in two manuscripts (Paris and Konya). The work place of composition is the Aydınid realm of western Anatolia (Aegean region).

Biographical notes

Virtually nothing is known of his life. The pen-name of Ṭutmacı may come from the word “ṭutma,” which refers to a type of melon which grows near the stream of Zengibasar, زنگیبصر in the vicinity of Yerevan. The existence of elements from Azari and Chaghatai Turkish in his language further implies that he grew up in the Caucasus region. In the introduction to his Gül ü Ḫüsrev, Ṭutmacı refers to his contemporaries Aḥmedī (d. 815/1412-13) and Şeyḫoġlı (d. . 817/1414) as great masters, thus suggesting that he lived in the second half of the fourteenth century and composed his work while living in Anatolia. In the same introduction Ṭutmacı also refers to being of significant age at the time of writing.
