Abstract

The origins of Nûr Bânû, first consort of Selim II and mother of Murad III, have been a subject of many speculations and much confusion. Modern historiography produced two contrasting versions about the early life of this influential personality: whereas most scholars have regarded her as a Venetian patrician, she is considered as Corfiote in Greece. A reconsideration of the question, supported by archival documents, though not leading to a definite solution, presents the Greek version as more plausible, while analyzing the various factors which may explain the elusiveness characterizing Nûr Bânû's identity.

Özet

"Kadınlar Saltanatı" tarihçiler tarafından on altıncı yüzyıl sonu ve on yedinci yüzyıl sonu arasında yaşanan gerilemenin belirtilerinden biri olarak değerlendirilir. Sultanların hasekilerinin artan etkisi ve valide sultan ile haseki sultanların öneminin artmasının Osmanlı devlet sistemini bozduğuna inanılır. III. Murad (1574-95) dönemi bu yönde bir değişimin başlangıç noktası kabul edilmektedir. III. Murad'ın annesi Nûr Bânû Sultan, II. Sultan Selimin haseki "kadını" olarak ayrıcalıklı bir yere sahipti. III. Murad'ın saltanatı sırasında valide sultan olarak gücü ve etkisi büyük oranda artar. Bâb-ı bulunan Batılı diplomatlar Nûr Bânû'nun oğlunu kontrolü ve politik meselelere müdahalesi konusunda hemfikirdirler. İstanbul'dan gelen raporlar, 1583 yılında öldüğünde, aniden annesinin rehberliğini yitiren III. Murad'ın büyük üzüntüsünü tarif ederler.
