Biographical notes

Nesīmī is an early Ottoman poet and mystic, famous for his Ḥurūfī worldview. He is believed to have come from Nesīm, near Baghdād. He was most likely of Turkoman origin, although his title of “Seyyid” also points to Arab blood. About 804 AH [1401 CE] he became a follower of Faḍl Allāh Ḥurūfī (d. 796/1394), whom he personally met, and eventually became his successor. After Faḍl Allāh’s death, he left Azerbaijan for Anatolia. He came to Bursa during the reign of Murād I (761-91/1360-89) and was not well received here. Ḥacı Bayram (d. 833/1430) refused to see him in Ankara. He eventually went to Aleppo, where he was flayed for his heretical views in 820 AH [1417 CE] (other dates are also given in the historical sources). Evliyā Çelebi (d. 1095/1684) mentions a lodge and a tomb for Nesīmī in this city. Nesīmī had Dīvāns in both Persian and Turkish, which he knew equally well, as well as possibly a Dīvān in Arabic which is no longer extant. His Turkish shows the characteristics of the Ādharī dialect. Nesīmī’s poetry focuses on Ḥurūfī teachings, the doctrine of the oneness of being, and the praise of the Twelve Imams. The latter aspect, in addition to his martyrdom, has led to the Alevi adoption of Nesīmī, who consider him as one of their seven great poets. Nesīmī also had an important historical role in the development of classical literature in Turkish, with his extensive use of complex images (maḍmūn).

Notes

Nesīmī’s poems were vastly popular, partly due to their dissemination by wandering dervishes. The latest critical edition of his Turkish Dīvān consists 3 mes̱nevīs, 457 ġazels, 315 quatrains (tuyuġ), and also 4 müstezāds, 1 murabbā, 3 tercīʿ-i bends and 4 individual couplets. He also used the pen name of “Ḥüseynī” in some poems.
