This study follows the lives and ideas of the Yazicioglu brothers
Mehmed Yazicioglu and Ahmed Bican, Sufis of the frontier city of
Gelibolu and authors of the most popular religious writings in
Ottoman Turkish. Carlos Grenier places the Yazicioglus' durable
religious vision within their dynamic historical moment on the
contested Ottoman borderlands. Examining how these non-elite
writers deployed their own intellectual resources, he considers how
they approached the religious sciences of the wider Islamic world.
And he looks at how they created a religious synthesis appropriate
for their own community, the growing Turcophone Muslim population
of the Balkans and Anatolia.
