许蕾姆苏丹

罗克塞拉娜（Roxelana，），土耳其语称许蕾姆（Hürrem，意为“高兴者”），阿拉伯语称卡里玛（كريمة，意为“尊贵者”），奥斯曼帝国苏丹苏莱曼一世的。

羅克塞拉娜原名已不可考，但在19世纪乌克兰民间传说中，她被称为“安娜斯塔西娅”，波兰传说则称其为“亚历山德拉·利索斯卡”，在其他欧洲语言中通称其为柔克塞拉娜，意为“來自羅塞尼亞的女郎”。

柔克塞拉娜出身于一个羅加京（当时属于波兰）附近的一个乌克兰东正教家庭。在一次克里米亚汗国对当地的劫掠中被掠为奴，并被售往伊斯坦布尔，因为颇有幾分姿色，她被挑选进入苏丹的后宫。很快她就获得了苏莱曼一世的宠爱。在一次后宫的争宠过程中，柔克塞拉娜被蘇丹宠妃居尔巴哈尔苏丹殴打，盛怒之下的苏莱曼一世立即将居尔巴哈尔苏丹，连同她的爱子穆斯塔法皇子（当时的王储）一同流放，后又将穆斯塔法处死。

柔克塞拉娜为苏莱曼生了6个孩子，其后更是令人吃惊地成为他的正室。在其影响下，终其一生奥斯曼帝国和其祖国波兰都保持了和平。苏莱曼一世逝世后，柔克塞拉娜的儿子塞利姆二世继承了苏丹宝座。

柔克塞拉娜在伊斯坦布尔、耶路撒冷和麦加等地修建了大量的公共建筑，著名的有许蕾姆苏丹公共浴场等。

柔克塞拉娜传奇的一生成为许多艺术作品的题材，其中有名的有约瑟夫·海顿的63号交响曲等；在近世將近200年的時間裡，她是成為烏克蘭和土耳其許多小說和電視劇的女主角，不過她的一生和成就相對其原生存時代來說僅屬於例外。
