Biographical notes
Author of the untitled mes̱nevī given the name ʿAnāṣır-ı Erbaʿa by Âmil Çelebioğlu, written possibly in the 15th century [1400-1499 CE]. Our only source of information on him is his work, where his name figures in two couplets. From his reference to his white hair, we may guess that he was of an old age when he composed his work. He may have lived in the Aegean region.
