Abstract:

The subject of Sufi in Turkish poetry has been discussed since the first time as a problem of the presence of poetry. Sufism has been a nurturing and maturing source for Turkish poets since the spreading of Islam among Turkish people until today. During the Classic Literature period, poems were generally written for the disseminating and understanding of mystical teaching. The poets generally prefer to express their ideas through generally-accepted metaphorical statements. This situation leaves its place to images in the modern poetry. One of the poets who benefit from Sufism and who express his thoughts through images is Mehmet Özger. In this study, mystical elements which are found in the first poem book of M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. Mehmet Özger will be evaluated as a young poet who begins his poetry journey with a first book. Within this framework, besides the existence of mystical thought and its reflection in poetry, the poet’s outlook on life and his philosophy of life world will be studied. The poet’s approaches about sophistic terms and subjects such as unity of existence, hope and fear, spiritual journey, body and soul, love and mind will be discussed.
