                            <p>Bu inceleme, Challenging Conventions: Love, Lovers, and Beloveds in Early Modern Ottoman Poetry adlı eseri ele almaktadır. Kitap, erken modern Osmanlı edebî kültüründe ʿışk kavramını temel bir çerçeve olarak inceleyen bir derlemedir. Bu çalışma, derlemenin aşkı toplumsal, manevi, ontolojik ve şiirsel boyutlarıyla nasıl ele aldığını tartışmakta, ayrıca kitabın tematik düzenini, disiplinlerarası kapsamını ve editoryal bütünlüğünü değerlendirmektedir. Bireysel bölümleri kitabın genel yapısı içinde konumlandırarak eserin, aşkı yalnızca edebî bir tema olarak değil, daha geniş bir düşünsel inceleme alanı olarak ele aldığını göstermektedir.</p></trans-abstract>

It discusses how the collection approaches love through social, spiritual, ontological, and poetic perspectives. The review evaluates the book’s thematic organization, interdisciplinary scope, and editorial coherence. By situating individual chapters within the book’s overall structure, it highlights how the volume treats love not only as a literary theme but also as a broader field of intellectual inquiry.</p></abstract>
