Beyond Anitkabir: The Funerary Architecture of Atatürk (eBook, ePUB)

The Construction and Maintenance of National Memory

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There have been five different settings that have contained the dead body of Atatÿrk, organizer of the Turkish War of Independence (1919-1923) and first president of the Republic of Turkey. Narrating the story of these different architectural constructions, this book also describes and interprets the movement of Atatÿrk's body through the cities of Istanbul and Ankara and also the nation of Turkey to reach these destinations. It examines how each one of these locations - accidental, designed, temporary, permanent - has contributed in its own way to the construction of a Turkish national memory about Atatÿrk.
