  Reconsideration of Orhon Inscriptions in the context of Cultural Memory of Turkish Society: The Body and Memory of Stone

  Demir, Sertac Timur

  This paper aims to deal with the Orhon Inscriptions among the concepts and debates on cultural memory for the purpose of 'remembering', 'adaptation', 'updating' and 'refunctionalising' through the television documentary Time Traveller: Following the Steps of the Turks. What do the inscriptions tell us about today? What does deducing, analysing and developing a methodology for this provide to the national heritage under the titles of past, identity, belonging and memory? In this article, accordingly, cultural memory questions and suggestions are offered through the Orhon Inscriptions. Documents and documentaries, without doubt, are instruments of interpreting the past and projecting the future. This research is conceptual as well as methodological. In this respect, a minimal cultural memory glossary is fictionalised and thus a sort of conceptual ground is generated.

  The Stranger to Time: What a Collector Stands for in a Hurried Society

  Demir, Sertaç Timur

  City-dwellers who are threatened by the risk of natural or social disasters are in search of safer houses. Each attempt to satisfy their need for safety, however, turns into another version of the security problem; so much so that, escaping from risk itself turns into different (yet nevertheless more powerful) risks. The film 10 to 11 (2009) focuses on the socio-spatial conflict between a stranger and his neighbours who are anxious about a possible earthquake risk in Istanbul. Mithat, the protagonist of the film, is a stranger not only to place but essentially to time. He lives within time and understands place as an essential means loaded by temporal experiences and memories. This paper deals with the multiple dichotomies between time and memory, between risk and fear, between aesthetics and security, and between attachment and profit in the context of urban transformation. The stranger, who is analysed for the first time as a temporal being in this paper, is discussed using Zygmunt Bauman’s concepts of uncertainty and liquid modernity, Richard Sennett’s capitalism, Ulrich Beck’s risk society, Frank Furedi’s culture of fear, Stephen Bertman’s hurried culture, Elias Canetti’s death, Giorgio Agamben’s forgotten and gone, Svetlana Boym’s nostalgia, and Halbwachs, Assmann, Connerton, and Arendt’s memory, as well as around the temporal spaces of museums, bibliopoles, antique shops, and cemeteries.
