Abstract	:	Azerbaijani (Azeri, Ādherī) literature is characterised by an idiosyncratic combination of influences from Turkic and European cultures that have shaped it for more than 600 years. The definition of Azerbaijani literature is often contested, as the Azerbaijani language (Azeri) was virtually indistinguishable from other Western Oghuz dialects (such as Old Ottoman) in its earliest stages. This is demonstrated by Qazi Bürhanəddin/Kaḍı (Qāḍī) Burhaneddin (Qāḍī Burhān al-Dīn, d.c. 800/1398), who lived in Anatolia but whose language resembles that of the famous Azerbaijani writer Nəsimi (d. 820/1417).
