Kandilli 403 Yazmasındaki Kopernik Sistemini Temsil Eden Şekil Üzerine Not

Bu araştırma notunun amacı, birçok yazar tarafından İslam ülkelerine Güneş merkezli evren modelinin girişini temsil ettiği düşünülen ve üç meşhur kozmolojik sistemi temsil eden bir şeklin kaynağını belirlemektir. Çelişkili olarak, bu şekil, kesinlikle yermerkezli bir eser olan Noël Durret’nin Nouvelle théorie des planètes adlı eserinin Türkçe ve Arapça versiyonundan oluşan bir onyedinci yüzyıl yazmasının içinde bulunmaktadır. Biz burada, her üç şeklin de Andrea Argoli’nin Ephemerides adlı eserinin 1648 baskısından alındığını göstermekteyiz. Bu eserin bir nüshasının 1683 yılında, Durret’nin kitabıyla beraber, İstanbul’daki bir bilge kişide bulunduğa işaret edilmişti. Temsil edilen sistemler Kopernik, Tycho Brahe ve Argoli’nin sistemleridir.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Güneş merkezli sistem, Kopernik, Noël Durret, Andrea Argoli, Sajanjal al-aflāk, Tezkireci Köse Ibrāhīm

The purpose of this note is to identify the source of a famous drawing of three cosmological systems, considered by many authors as the very first instance of heliocentrism in Islamic countries. Paradoxically, this drawing is included in a seventeenth-century manuscript containing a Turkish and Arabic version of the Nouvelle théorie des planètes by Noël Durret, a resolutely geocentric work. We demonstrate that the three figures are taken from the 1648 edition of Andrea Argoli’s Ephemerides, a copy of which was reported in 1683 at an Istanbul scholar’s house alongside Durret’s book. The systems represented are those of Copernicus, Tycho Brahe and Argoli’s own system.

Keywords:

Heliocentrism, Copernicus, Noël Durret, Andrea Argoli, Sajanjal al-aflāk, Tezkireci Köse Ibrāhīm,
