    (Ankara Üniversitesi Dil Tarih ve Coğrafya Fakültesi, 2020-03-31) Sezer, Hatice; Other; Other
    Kemalpaşazade is one of the most influential intellectuals of the sixteenth century. He is both a religious scholar and a prominent state official. In this study, the main goal is to detect the ways Kemalpaşazade’s status as a statesman affected his intellectual disposition. In order to understand this, at the beginning, the study covers both a biography of Kemalpaşazade illustrating the upbringing of the statesman, and an analysis of the sixteenth century medrese education system displaying the characteristics of religious scholarly atmosphere. Later on, an analysis of Kemalpaşazade’s narration in his Tevarih-i Ali Osman in comparison with the history of Aşıkpaşazade who was not a statesman will be made to display the extent Kemalpaşazade had written in support of the state authority. In the last part so as to understand whether he supported the state ideology, some among his fatwas and the factors underlying the emergence of these fatwas will be the main subjects under consideration.
