Özet
Türk edebiyatında; deniz ve gemi ile alâkalı hususları hususi olarak işleyen eserlerin yanında, farklı mevzuları da ele alan daha kapsamlı eserlerin bir bölümünün deniz ve gemiyle ilgili hususlara tahsis edildiğini de görmekteyiz. Garîb-nâme de, bu konuyu bölümlerinin birinde tasavvufi bir bakış açısıyla ele alan eserlerden biridir. 14. yüzyıl Osmanlı âlim, şair ve mutasavvıflarından Âşık Paşa’nın 1330 yılında tamamladığı Garîb-nâme adlı eseri 10.000 küsur beyitlik telif bir mesnevidir. Muhteva ve şekil itibariyle müstesna bir eser olan Garîb-nâme, ele aldığı konuların zenginliği bakımından da Türk edebiyatında seçkin bir yere sahiptir. 10 bâb hâlinde tertip edilen eserin her bir bâbında, o sayıyla ilgili 10’ar hikâye anlatılıp yine o sayıyla ilgili hususlar dile getirilmiştir. Garîb-nâme’nin sekizinci bâbının 10. hikâyesi, geminin selametle yol alması için gerekli sekiz unsurdur. Eserde; deniz/su, gemi (geminin gövdesi/kalıbı), yelken, yel, lenger, üstâd/gemici/keştîbân, âdemî/halk (yolcu), metâ‘/kâle (mal/kumaş) şeklinde sıralanan bu unsurlardan her biri, dörder defa başa dönülerek ve her defasında konuya yeni mana katmanları ilave edilerek ayrıntılı bir şekilde izah edilir. Âşık Paşa, gemicilik tarihi bakımından önemli bulduğumuz bu unsurların önce zahirî manaları üzerinde durur, daha sonra her birinin tasavvufi karşılıklarına değinir. Bu açıklamaları yaparken; “Görmüyor musun ki, Allah bütün yerdekileri ve emri uyarınca denizde akıp gitmekte olan gemileri sizin hizmetinize vermiştir...” (Kur’an-ı Kerim 65:22) mealindeki ayetten yola çıkar ve didaktik bir üslup kullanır. Bu makale, giriş ve sonuç ile birlikte toplam dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Giriş bölümünde; Türk denizcilik tarihi, Türk edebiyatında deniz ve gemi ile alâkalı hususlar hakkında kısa bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. İlk bölümde, Garîb-nâme’nin bu sahada nasıl bir yer tuttuğunu belirlemek amacıyla, müellifi Âşık Paşa ve eseri kısaca tanıtılmıştır. İkinci bölümde; eserin sekizinci bâbının onuncu hikayesi olan gemi için gerekli sekizunsur, Âşık Paşa’nın ifadelerinden yola çıkılarak, zahirî ve tasavvufi manalarıyla birlikte her biri için açılan alt başlıklarda izah edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Sonuç bölümünde ise, bu çalışma neticesinde elde edilen bilgiler toplu bir değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur. Bu çalışma ile; Garîb-nâme gibi önemli bir edebî eserde yer alan gemicilik unsurlarının detaylı bir şekilde incelenerek gün yüzüne çıkarılması, böylelikle gemiyle ilgili unsurların kültür hayatımızın yanında, edebî ve tasavvufi metinlere de yansımalarına dikkat çekilerek denizcilik tarihine katkı sağlanması hedeflenmiştir.
In Turkish literature, in addition to the works that deal specifically with the sea and the ship, we also see that more comprehensive works dealing with different subjects devote certain parts of them to the issues related to the sea and the ship. Garîb-nâme is one of the works that addresses this subject from a sufistic/mystical point of view in one of its chapters. Completed in 1330 by Âşık Paşa, one of the 14th century Ottoman scholars, poets and sufis, Garîb-nâme is a mesnevi of more than 10,000 couplets. It is an exceptional work in terms of content and form and has a distinguished place in Turkish literature in terms of the richness of the subjects it handles. In each chapter of the book, which is organized in 10 chapters, 10 stories are told about each of the chapter numbers and the issues related to that number are addressed. The 10th story of the eighth chapter of Garib-nâme concerns eight elements necessary for a ship to sail safely. In the work, each of these elements, which are listed as “deniz/su” sea/water, “gemi (geminin gövdesi)” ship (ship's hull), “yelken” sail, “yel” wind, “lenger” anchor, “üstâd/gemici/keştîbân” master/sailor/captain, “âdemi/halk (yolcu)” mankind/people (passengers) and “metâ‘ (mal)/kâle (kumaş)” commodity/cloth, is explained in detail by returning to the beginning four times and adding new layers of meaning to the subject each time. Âşık Paşa first focuses on the apparent/overt meanings of these elements, which we find important in terms of shipping history, and then refers to the esoteric/covert/mystical equivalents of each of these elements. In his discussion, he draws on the verse “Do you not see that Allah Almighty has put at your service all the inhabitants of the earth and the ships that glide in the sea in accordance with His command..." (Quran 65:22) and uses a didactic style. This article consists of a total of four sections with an introduction and a conclusion. In the introduction section, a brief review has been made about the Turkish maritime history and the issues related to the sea and the ship in Turkish literature. In the first chapter of the article, its author Âşık Paşa and his work are briefly introduced in order to determine what kind of place Garîb-nâme occupies in this field. In the second section, the eight elements necessary for the ship, which is the tenth story of the eighth chapter of the work, have been tried to be explained in the sub-headings together with their apparent and mystical meanings, based on the words of Âşık Paşa. In the conclusion section, a general evaluation is made on the basis of the information obtained as a result of this study. The aim of this study is to reveal the shipping elements used in Garib-nâme in detail, thus contributing to the maritime history by drawing attention to the reflections of the elements related to the ship on literary and sufi texts as well as on our cultural life.
