Exploring the meanings and politics of memory contests in Turkey, a site for complex negotiations of identity, the book asks what it means for museums to charge the past with political agendas through spectacular, emotive representations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProviding an in-depth examination of emotional practice in two Turkish museums that present contrasting representations of the national past, the book analyses relationships between memory, governmentality, identity, and emotion. The museums discussed celebrate Ottoman and Early Republican pasts, linking to geo- and party politics, people's senses of who they are, popular memory culture, and competing national stories and identities \u003ci\u003evis-à-vis\u003c\/i\u003e Europe and the wider world. Both museums use dramatic, emotive panoramas as key displays and the research at the heart of this book explores this seemingly anachronistic choice, and how it links with memory cultures to prompt visitors to engage imaginatively, socially, politically and morally with a particular version of the past. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough the book focuses on museums in Turkey, it uses this as a platform to address broader questions about memory culture, emotion, and identity.
