Özet

In the beginning of this research, we have tried to introduce the topic by mentioning the six different characters of Karacaoǧlan. Our main character is Karacaoǧlan who lived in the southern part of Mediterranean Sea (Çukurova) in the 17th century. Secondly, we see that the southerner Karacaoǧlan mentioned Haci Bektaş Velî, Kul, Abdal, twelf Imams and some terms like grandfather in his poems. At the same time, Karacaoǧlan was inspired by Bektashism; especially seeing the human as core of the universe. Thus, Karacaoǧlan's relations with Bektashis results from this influence. So, by looking at some of the Bektashi qualities in his poems, it would be wrong to say that Karacaoǧlan was a Bektashi. It may be concluded that Karacaoǧlan is from Varsak tribe. In this research, how and how much the Bektashi philosophy had been reflected in Karacaoǧlan's poems is emphasized by the items below: 1. The prophet Muhammed, the excellency Ali 2. Haci Bektashi Velî 3. The manners and the solemnity 4. He twelf Imams, the four portals 5. He Kul, Abdal, the grandfather 6. Valuating the hell and the paradise 7. He Loving and understanding the human In the conclusion part, it has also been emphasized that the southerner Karacaoǧlan who lived in the 17th century was not the same soldier Karacaoǧlan who lived in the 16th century. It is seen that Karacaoǧlan wrote his four poems on Haci Bektaşi Velî and mentioned his loftiness and how he helped the weak. Thus, by looking at the point of view of Karacaoǧlan, in fact, if it is thought that Karacaoǧlan is the lover of humans around him and he writes how people live, it is not wrong to say that Karacaoǧlan has positive feelings towards Haci Bektash Velî.
