At the turn of the century, marked by the pangs of transition, this text, striving to capture the spirit of the time, stands at the intersection of art and architectural history and restoration theory. The impact of the text is too strong to be limited either by its specific field of knowledge within the discipline or by its historical, social, and cultural context. The text, which problematizes the transformation of the relationship between human beings and the works they produce, and thus their past, at the beginning of modern times, both questions the prevalent hierarchy in monument values and possesses a timeless and placeless validity with its observations and predictions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Modern Cult of Monuments\u003c\/em\u003e, which focuses on the relationship between the modern and historical heritage, also contains the tools to analyze postmodernism, which declares that the modern itself now has a history. Riegl's text announces that a religious sentiment will dominate the secularized modern human's interest in the past and love for historical artifacts in the 20th century, describing a new relationship between the religious and spiritual and the mundane and material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The publication of \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Modern Cult of Monuments\u003c\/em\u003e in Turkish allows for the emergence of new approaches to history and historical artifacts and the development of new ideas in Turkey.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arketon Yayınları","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48497859756275,"sku":"9786057141347","price":928.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/3950\/7395\/products\/AloisRiegl-ModernAnitKultu2-ONKAPAK.jpg?v=1654696039","url":"https:\/\/yemkitabevi.com\/en-us\/products\/modern-anit-kultu","provider":"YEM Kitabevi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
