Özet:

Mir Nihâd Bey is a witty personality who has a divan of his own. Mir Nihâd is also known as Nihâd Bey from Kanlıca. It is possible to find detailed information about him in Mahmud Kemal İnal's Turkish Poets of the Last Century, Abdülhakim Koçin's Nihâd Bey and his Divançe and Mehmet Altunmeral's Nihâd Bey's Divan. In this study, the information belonging to Nihâd Bey, which is not found in the above-mentioned works, has been tried to be presented to the attention together with its sources. In addition to his witty personality, Nihâd Bey is also a person who closely follows the technology of the time. During the researches, it was also learned that the first Muslim Turkish person to have his photograph taken in Istanbul was Nihâd Bey. However, since there are more than thirty thousand documents in the archive of Taha Toros, it is not known which envelope it was put in. The importance of biographical sources and various works in terms of literary history is obvious. With this study, in which Nihâd Bey's jokes that are not mentioned in the sources are determined, it is thought that these sources will help to create a complete biography of the personality. In this study, data was obtained about the person who was the subject of the study by using the archive scanning method.
