In Turkish; with Abstract in English. Very rare. Original binding. Very good ISBN: CATALOG: Architecture & Urban studies KEYWORDS: Turkish architecture Seljuks Principalities Period in Anatolia Madrasah Architecture History of art Anatolia Bir egitim kurulusu olarak medrese X. yuzyilda Maveraunnehir'de ortaya cikmistir. X. yuzyila ait hicbir medrese yapisi bugun mevcut olmadigi gibi Buyuk Selcuklularin onemli sehirlerinde yaptirdiklari Nizamiyeler de zamanimiza intikal etmemistir. Bu bakimdan Anadolu'da XII, ve XIII. yuzyillarda insa edilmis olan medreseler bu mimari tipinin incelenmesinde onemli bir yer isgal eder; cunku bir Turk egitim kurulusu olan medresenin mimari kaynaklari konusuna Suriye ve Misir medreselerinden cok Anadolu medreseleri isik tutacaktir. Medrese yapisi ice donuk bir mimari gosterir. Dis kitlesinde belirli bir duzen bulunmaz; fakat ic mekani dortgen bir avlu etrafinda tertiplenmis ve bir ile dort arasinda eyvanla zenginlestirilmistir. Anadolu medreseleri kitle bicimi bakimindan acik-avlulu ve kapali-avlulu olmak uzere iki ana gruba ayrilir. Her iki gruba ait tipleri Orta Asya'ya goturmek mumkundur. Acik-avlulu medrese orneklerini Islam dunyasinin her tarafinda bulmamiz yaninda orta avlusu bir kubbeyle ortulu olan medrese tipinin ozellikle Anadolu'da gelistigine sahit oluyoruz. Anadolu'da mevcudiyetini bildigimiz en eski medreselerin kapali-avlulu medreseler olmasi kapaliavlulu medresenin sanildigi gibi acik-avlulu medresenin daha sonra gelistirilmis bir turu olmayip onunla birlikte ve belki de ondan daha once ortaya cikmis ve muhtemelen avlusu kubbeli Orta Asya evinden mulhem olduguna isaret eder. Anadolu medreselerini kitle bicimi bakimindan kapali-avlulu ve acik-avlulu medrese olarak ikiye ayirdik. Bunlari ic mekan duzeni bakimindan da yine iki gruba ayirmak gerekir. Tek-eksenli ve capraz-eksenli tipler olarak adlandiracagimiz gruplardan birincisinin prototipinde karsilikli iki eyvan bulunur. Ozellikle XIII. yuzyilin ikinci yarisinda insa edilen monumantal Selcuklu ve Ilhanli medreselerinde gorulen caprazeksenli medrese prototipinde ise avlunun her cephesinin ortasinda bir eyvan vardir. Eyvan sayisinin medresede temsil edilen mezheb sayisiyla iliskisi oldugunu sanmiyoruz. Hic olmazsa Anadolu medreseleri icin boyle bir ilinti bahis konusu degildir. Ote yandan, medresenin mimari duzeni eyvan-avlu iliskisinden vucud bulur. Dolayisiyle medresenin temel bina elemanlari avlu ile eyvandir ve Anadolu medrese mimarisinin tiplendirilmesinde bu iki eleman bas rolu oynar. (Ozet'ten).
