Book Synopsis
The early modern Ottoman poet Mihrî Hatun (1460-1515) succeeded in drawing considerable renown during a time when few women were accepted into the male-dominated intellectual circles. Her poetry collection is among the earliest bodies of women's writing in the Middle East. With this volume, Havliog-lu investigates the factors that allowed Hatun to survive and thrive.

Trade Review
This is a path-breaking book. Its value lies not in ‘completeness’ but in showing the way toward more complete and nuanced studies of early modern women’s poetry in the Ottoman Empire.' - Walter G. Andrews, research professor, Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilization, University of Washington
