    Çanakkale/Gallipoli - der kriegsschauplatz: kulturerbe und welterinnerungsort

    The following work deals with the significance of memory sites for the collective identity of social groups and the location of memories in space. Aleida and Jan Assmann's theory of collective memory and memory sites builds on the work of Maurice Halbwachs and Pierre Nora. It examines the processes of the formation of national memories and the interactions between individual participants. The focus is on how collective memories serve as the basis of community cohesion and the importance of places as spatial memory media in the process of national memory production. This paper aims to test the applicability of Assmann's theory to the Turkish context using Gallipoli National Park as an example of spatial objectification of current Turkish memory culture. By means of a literature review, the memory theories of the authors are examined in order to conduct an analysis of the applicability of Assmann's theory to the case study based on the findings. In addition, a site visit to the Gallipoli National Park will take place. At the beginning of the applicability review, the prehistory and the Gallipoli War are considered under their political and historical originating factors. Then, Assmann's theory of memory is analyzed using the example of Gallipoli National Park as a spatial objectivation to the backward perspective on the Gallipoli War. In the conclusion, the facts obtained and the resulting findings are critically examined in order to discuss the research question of this thesis. Assmann's theory of memory will be applicable to the Turkish context. With regard to the collective memory described by Aleida Assmann and Jan Assmann, clear tendencies of a state-organized identity formation become apparent. This master thesis demonstrates the adaptability of national memory as an identity-forming feature of a nation in the Turkish context
