Year 2019, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 21 - 40, 30.06.2019

Abstract

The study of unknowns about the lives of heroes who represent our music
history is one of the research areas of Turkish musicologists. Healthy writing
of biographies depends on research results. World musicologists also made
efforts in this field. Abdulkadir Maragi or Abdulkadir of Maraga, who was
studied on him in Turkey since 1925 is an important figure in the history of
Turkish or Eastern music. He has attracted the attention of local and foreign
researchers as both music theorist and performer and the theoretical
commentator. In this article is determined Makasid al-alhan one of his Works
that was given a complete list of the manuscripts of it in some research books.
However, all the researchers’ thought that the manuscripts of Makasid was a
single work, consisting of a single composition compared to others. In fact,
this research aims to reveal that not Makasid manuscripts are composed of a
single composition with the comparative text method or the critical edition
method. It has been determined that the critical edition method cannot be
applied between Works of the same name which do not consist of a single
composition. Even though Makasid manuscripts have the same name, it has been
determined that they are three versions and can only be downloaded to two group
versions with the critical edition method. The first group of Makasid was
written for the name of Sultan Shah Rukh Timurid and second group was written
for the name of Murad II Ottomani and their composition is different in ninety
percent.
