The Karamanids Principality: Identity and Architectural Representation

Abstract

The accurate interpretation of artworks is possible not only through the examination of their aesthetic characteristics but also through an understanding of the history and culture of the period in which they were produced. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the construction activities of the Karamanid Principality—which existed in Anatolia from the second half of the 13th century to the end of the 15th century—starting with the Ermenek Tol Madrasa and continuing with structures such as the Hatuniye Madrasa and the Ibrahim Bey Imaret, within the framework of the political and cultural conditions of the period. This research comparatively analyzes data from other period sources alongside the narratives of historians like Ibn Bibi, Shikari, Ashikpashazade, and Solakzade, among the early period sources, and discusses the effects of these narratives on the historical representation of the Karamanids. Furthermore, an analytical study will be conducted on the principality's political power, its culture, and the relationship it established with the Ottoman Principality through the lens of architectural production and the Seljuk-Ilkhanid heritage. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the artistic and architectural production of the Karamanid Principality within the political and cultural context of the period. In line with this purpose, the historical development of the principality and its representation in sources will be examined first, followed by an analysis of the spheres of influence reflected in its architectural production. Additionally, the reflections of Seljuk, Ilkhanid, and Ottoman influences on Karamanid architecture will be discussed.

Karamanoğulları Beyliği: Kimlik ve Mimari Temsili

Abstract

Sanat eserlerinin doğru biçimde yorumlanabilmesi, yalnızca estetik özelliklerinin incelenmesiyle değil, aynı zamanda üretildikleri dönemin tarih ve kültürünün de anlaşılmasıyla mümkündür. Bu nedenle çalışmada, Anadolu’da 13. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından 15. yüzyıl sonlarına kadar varlık gösteren Karamanoğulları Beyliği’nin Ermenek Tol Medrese ile başlayan ve Hatuniye Medresesi, İbrahim Bey İmareti gibi yapılarla devam eden imar faaliyetlerinin, dönemin siyasî ve kültürel koşulları çerçevesinde değerlendirmesi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma, erken dönem kaynakları arasında yer alan İbn-i Bibi, Şikârî, Âşık Paşazâde ve Solakzâde gibi tarihçilerin anlatımları ile diğer dönem kaynaklarından verileri karşılaştırmalı olarak ele almakta; bu anlatımların Karamanoğulları’nın tarihsel temsiline etkilerini tartışmaktadır. Ayrıca mimarî üretim üzerinden beyliğin siyasî gücü, kültürü Selçuklu-İlhanlı mirasıyla ve Osmanlı Beyliği ile kurduğu ilişkinin analiz çalışması yapılmaya çalışılacaktır. Karamanoğulları Beyliği’nin sanat ve mimarî üretimini, dönemin siyasi ve kültürel bağlamı içerisinde ele alarak değerlendirmek bu çalışmanın amacıdır. Bu doğrultuda, öncelikle beyliğin tarihsel gelişimi ve kaynaklardaki temsili incelenecek; ardından mimari üretim üzerinden beyliğin etkilendiği alanları analiz edilecektir. Ayrıca Selçuklu, İlhanlı ve Osmanlı etkilerinin Karamanoğulları mimarisindeki yansımaları ele alınacaktır.
