Works
His main works are known under two names: Menâkıb-ı Âli-i Osman and Tevārīḫ-i Āl-i ʿOsmān. The works deal with Ottoman history from the beginning of the Ottoman state until the time of
Ottoman Turkish
and is partially based on older Ottoman sources, it is more detailed at the events he witnessed personally. His work was used by later Ottoman historians and became a fashion.
Criticism
According to
Halil Inalcik, in his works Aşıkpaşazade twisted his interpretation of the actual events to match his preconceptions.[5] It was typical for him to simply merge two different stories to forge a new description of the battle.[6] Some parts of "Cosmorama" or "Cihan-Nümâ", written by Neşri who was another prominent representative of early Ottoman Historiography, were based on the work of Aşıkpaşazade.[7]
