Özet:

Many works have been given in Turkish literature in the form of mesnevi verse, which has been rooted from Iranian literature and has gained a national identity in terms of both form and subject over the centuries. Various subjects are handled in a certain order in mesnevis. When we look at the arrangement formats of mesnevi in general, they consist of three parts. These are prologue, section that handles the issue and epilogue. Poets describe the story in the second main part of the mesnevi. In prologue and epilogue, they give the reader historical and chronological information about their works, poetics, poetry and the period in which they lived both to shed light on the history of literature and to provide historical and chronological information. In this study a comparative assessment was made on epilogue of mesnevis. The 15th century was chosen as the period because it is accepted as the turning point of Turkish mesnevi literature. In this century Mesnevis written with the concern of art are close to perfection in terms of style, language, originality in selected subjects and narrative technique. In this study, it has been tried to reveal what kind of contributions the information given by the poets in the chapters of epilogue has made to the history of literature.
