Abstract
In classical Turkish poetry, poets needed some images so as to express the intensity of their emotional inner worlds. With these images which are used to express their feelings and increase the impact, it is seen that a wide world of meaning has been composed. When the doors of this world of meaning are opened, a deep rooted cultural richness stands before us in all its details. This manifests itself on the one hand with the relationship established on the meaning of a world in the reference language, and on the other hand, it occurs in layers with various figures of speech and meaning. In this article, the ways of using the word ‘tesne’ which expresses a feeling from the middle of everyday life such as thirst and desire in classical Turkish poetry and the semantic world created around this word has been studied. With the various couplets from Divan poetry, it was tried to analyze what meanings the poets attributed to this word, which sources and events they used when using this phrase, and what meanings they added to the word except their dictionary meanings. While these investigations are being conducted, it was paid attention to be limited to Divans of the poets and more than 100 Divans of various centuries have been discussed. The richness of meaning that emerged at the end of the research manifests itself in layers from outside to inside and forms a direct proportion with the reflections in both the social world and the inner world of the poet.
