{"product_id":"modernin-saati","title":"The Clock of Modernity","description":"\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTraditional people can only know what exists in collective memory. However, as Pierre Nora puts it, “our hopelessly forgetful modern societies” lose their memories and replace them with historiography. Again, in his words, \"milieux de mémoire\" (environments of memory) give way to \"lieux de mémoire\" (places or spaces of memory).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn societies undergoing delayed modernization, the above development occurs differently. Society is rapidly changing on the one hand, eliminating traditional \"environments of memory\"; but it cannot achieve the same success in creating new \"spaces of memory.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAli Cengizkan's works, compiled in this book, appear particularly important in this context. Cengizkan does not merely attempt to illuminate certain points in the history of 20th-century Turkish architecture; he explicitly creates \"spaces of memory.\" To achieve this, he produces documentation. He \"discovers\" some written, visual, and drawn materials that have not been used or recognized as documents until now.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe construction of a new historical memory to fill the void left by the loss of social memory is undoubtedly a challenging endeavor that will take a long time. It requires the intellectual labor of several more generations. However, it must be acknowledged that Cengizkan's efforts in this field are groundbreaking. He is one of those who herald the opening of a new historical region, replacing the overly clichéd and familiar construct of \"Republican architecture.\"\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Arkadaş Yayınları","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42686108270835,"sku":"9786057921161","price":630.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/3950\/7395\/products\/0001804077001-1.jpg?v=1650528494","url":"https:\/\/yemkitabevi.com\/en-us\/products\/modernin-saati","provider":"YEM Kitabevi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
