Özet
Qizilbash notion emerged after the Ottoman-Safavid rivalry and established a broad connotation field, especially religious and political. The word of Qizilbash describes the Shi'ite Safavid and contains sectarian emphasi . It also contains negative sense like "bandits", "enemies", "infidels" in the Sunni Ottoman power terminology. Literature is the another field where these meanings of Qizilbash were used. In this article, we have tried to determine how this notion got these negative meanings in the Ottoman poetry. Starting from the XVI. century, we scanned the divans of poets belonging to different centuries and periods, the couplets that had " Qizilbash / Surhan-lay", mainly used to express Ottoman-Safavid conflict, and it has been seen that these words were used to explain the Shiite Safavid society. Moreover, the words like "profane", "mülhid", "heretics" and "Celali", used to describe and depict the Qizilbash society (clan) were scanned in divans and the image of this society in the Ottaman poet's imagination was determined. Apart from poetry directly about the Ottoman- Safavid, the poetry about "love" "opponent" "nature" etc. has the traces of this conflict that is embedded in the society's intellectual background. Although we don't know about the religious and political identity of the poets, the dominant discourse of the poet's poems reveals that the poet positioned himself on the side of the Sunni Ottoman rule. In this article, we will try to determine which negative connotations the Qizilbash image has in the discourse of poets from the Ottoman ideology.
