Article Citation - WoS: 1Educating Masses: The Committee of Union and Progress Clubs and Schools in the Late Ottoman Empire(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Tozoglu, Ahmet ErdemThis article examines the social and architectural context of an extensive building campaign in Turkey in the early twentieth century. The Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), one of the Second Constitutional Period's prominent political and cultural actors (1908-18), commissioned club and school buildings for social outreach operations. Influenced by their European counterparts, the Committee's protagonists believed that a social revolution could be accomplished by employing the education of the masses. Moreover, education was also essential to create a national identity for an Empire in a struggle. In this context, many clubs (for adults) and schools (for the youngsters) mushroomed in many cities simultaneously. Accordingly, the architecture of new club and school buildings reflected societal concerns and provided remarkable examples of their kinds. The education of the masses and the use of social propaganda by state agents in Republican Turkey have been scrutinized so far. Still the origins of the social engineering projects should be examined to contextualize Republican period developments. Thus, this article examines the building and impact of the clubs and schools of the CUP in the provinces and constitutes a contextual frame for their formative role in Turkish modernization.Conference Object Acoustic Transformation of Rock-Cut Caves Into Performance Spaces(European Acoustics Association, EAA, 2023) Aslan, Ahmet; Şaher, Konca; Tozoğlu, Ahmet ErdemCappadocia Region in Turkey is a center of attention as a tourism destination with its rock-cut caves, some of which are being used as performance spaces for concerts, festivals and local entertainment activities. However, these spaces are not fully investigated for their acoustic performance before being transformed into performance venues. This paper reports on the findings of an initial survey which presents a systematic mapping of the rock-cut caves used as performance spaces to locate, explore and document a sample of structures scattered in this historic district. A typological classification based on volume, size, type of tuff rock material and historical original use has been proposed and an acoustic analysis of some selected rock-cut caves has been carried out. The acoustic analysis included reverberation time calculations and simulations based on apparent volume, and tuff stone absorption characteristics, which were studied by other researchers in the area. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Master Thesis Mesleki Bilgi Transferinin Bir Aracı Olarak Türk Mimarlık Dergileri: 1960-1980(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2023) Katırcıoğlu, Nida; Tozoğlu, Ahmet ErdemIn this thesis, the role of architectural periodicals published in Turkey in the context of knowledge transfer between 1960 and 1980 is analyzed with textual analysis. One of the functions of architectural periodicals, transferring the changes and developments in the professional field in the world to their readers, has been investigated. The contents of three architectural periodicals that transfer architectural knowledge have been categorized by examining their archives.Article Ankara’da Millî Bayram Kutlamaları: Erken Cumhuriyet Dönemi’nde Kamusallığın Performatif Biçimleri(2022) Tozoglu, Ahmet Erdem; Elif, Kaymaz; Sezen, Öykü SuMakale, Ankara’da Cumhuriyet’in ilk yıllarında resmî bayram kutlamaları bağlamında performatif kamusallığın oluşumunu incelemektedir. Bayram kutlamaları tek bir aktör üzerinden ve tek bir kavramsal çerçeve içerisinde değerlendirilemeyecek kadar karmaşık toplumsal pratiklerdir. Çalışma, bayram kutlamalarının eş zamanlı okunması gereken bir dizi sosyomekânsal katman aracılığıyla anlaşılabileceğini savlamaktadır. Dolayısıyla makalede, kamusallığın fiziki altlığı olan kutlama mekânları, kitlelerin kontrol ve yönlendirilmesini sağlayan sosyomekânsal kurallar dizgesinin ve kutlama mizansenin etkinliğini artırmak için devreye sokulan maddi, manevi kimi araçların oluşturduğu bir ağın parçası olarak ele alınmaktadır. Resmî bayram kutlamalarındaki kamusallığı tartışmak ve farklı performatif ilişkileri tanımlamak için üç ilişkili tema önerilmiştir. Bunlar, kitlelerin hareketliliğinin teşviki, teknolojik gelişim ve teknik sergileme, kurucu imgeler ve anlatıların farklı araçlarla dolaşıma sokulmasıdır. Sonuç olarak, birbiri içine geçmiş, birbirinden beslenen bu temaların, Erken Cumhuriyet Dönemi’nde millî bayramlar aracılığıyla yeniden üretilen toplumsal rıza kültürünün ve ulus devlet inşası stratejilerinin törenler bağlamında açıklanabilmesine olanak sağladığı ortaya konulmuştur.Master Thesis Müze Mekanı için Yeni Biçim Arayışı: 1960-1980 Döneminde Türkiye Arkeoloji ve Müze Mimarlığı Politikası(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2022) Aslan, Hilal Kılıç; Tozoğlu, Ahmet ErdemThis study historically examines the formation and development of museums in Turkey, which are powerful cultural tools of modernity. Within the scope of the thesis, I scrutinize the evolution of museum architecture in Turkey under the influence of political ideologies and archaeological policies from the beginning of the twentieth century until 1980. As will be seen in the following sections, the political, cultural, economic, and social transformations experienced in this period were influential to the formation of museums in Turkey. The concept of museums began to change in Europe from the Enlightenment period onward and, became a central element for nation-states to create a modern and civilized identity in the nineteenth century. Likewise, the preliminary scientific archaeological studies in the late Ottoman period culminated in the Imperial Museum. After the proclamation of the Republic, the efforts to establish a modern museum in Turkey gained momentum along with many other nation-building policies. This thesis explores the establishment and development of museums in Turkey in the period between 1960 and 1980, focusing on the archaeological and cultural policies between political coups and their historical origins. I argue that the making of museums cannot be read independently of historicity, local identity, and role-play in the architectural medium. In this regard, this thesis spatially analyzes two museums in light of two major architectural themes of the period by synthesizing the examples in the architectural journals and state archives and examining these through many concepts found in the academic literature.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Textual Manifestations of Ottoman Architectural Revival and the Search for a National Idiom in the Late Ottoman Period(Cambridge Univ Press, 2022) Tozoglu, Ahmet ErdemThis article applies a critical approach to rethinking the relationship between nationalism and Ottoman architectural historiography by examining the intellectual medium during the late Ottoman period. More precisely, it examines how the history and theory of Ottoman architecture were initially established by Tanzimat (Reform) intelligentsia with the publication of Usul-i Mimari-i Osmani (Fundamentals of Ottoman Architecture) (1873). It addresses how the text was later comprehended and criticized by their successors, who utilized it to constitute their own vision of Turkish national architecture. By detailing the rise of the Turkish nationalist movement and the transition from Ottomanism to Turkism as the dominant identity, this article highlights the demand for the materialization of a national architecture as a component of the cultural construction of a national architectural style and the role of new public buildings as the site of nationalizing endeavors at the beginning of the twentieth century. Finally, this article problematizes the extent to which these new constructions can be deemed "national" by investigating the works of a pioneer figure of architecture, Kemaleddin Bey's writings and the design and construction of his dormitory building, the Fifth Vakif Han, in Istanbul.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Power, Conflict and Negotiation Between the Agents: An Alternative Vision for Contestation on the Public Space in the Late Ottoman Empire(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Tozoglu, Ahmet ErdemThis article posits the territorial claim and control of the Ottoman government in the city centre by analyzing confrontations and conflicts of the state with the other agents via critical examination of a provincial case in the late nineteenth century. I examine the critical moments in making of public space to understand how the state authority claimed and enlarged its territorial influence during foundation and development of Dedeagac (Alexandroupolis) port in Edirne province through many agency confrontations. The conflicts between the state and other agents extend from the choice of location for a new port and taxation of the new port neighbourhood to the provision of public works and constitution of an administrative centre. In this context, foundation and growth of Dedeagac case demonstrate presence of many civic agents in clash with the state and they had to agree on an interim resolution for spatial construction of the town centre. This article aims to provide an alternative ground to examine the agency of the state in the late nineteenth century urban setting. It aims to be more inclusive by revealing the dynamic and substantial role of the other underrepresented agents in making of the cityscape in the late Ottoman Empire.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2History-Themed Games in History Education: Experiences on a Blended World History Course(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Kuran, Mehmet Şükrü; Tozoğlu, Ahmet Erdem; Tavernari, CinziaIn this paper we explain our experiences and observations on a blended world history course which combines classical lecture and discussion elements as well as video game sessions in which the students play strategy video games with heavy historical focus. The course, named Playing with The Past, is designed to experiment on how to integrate video games on teaching history especially in order to achieve a higher understanding of the contemporary social, political, economical, and technological context of a given era for a given nation. We ran the course four times between 2015-2018 with different video game titles having different historical models and observe the experiences and learning of students based on the quality of their written essays and articles. Our experiments and observations could be beneficial not only for the design of a general world history course, but also for a history course on specific periods, cultures, and nations. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Settling Down the Crisis: Planning and Implementation of the Immigrant Settlements in the Balkans During the Late Ottoman Period(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Tozoglu, Ahmet Erdem; Akgun, Seda Nehir GumuslueSince the Crimean War (1853-56), the Ottomans encountered with the problem of settling the Muslim immigrants and it was initially resolved by establishing new towns and villages on vast arable plains in the Balkans and Anatolia. However, it became a necessity to let the immigrants settle in the cities after the massive influx of refugees in 1877-78, when available agricultural lands to assign remained limited in the empire. With the consent of the Sultan, a new urban typology emerged at the outskirts of the cities, which were called immigrant (muhajir) neighbourhoods. This article aims to explore the spatial development of these settlements by the close examination of two cases based on archival materials. Mecidiye, which was established after the Crimean War, stands as an archetypal example and acted as an experimental laboratory. The success of Mecidiye case encouraged the Ottoman bureaucrats for further in post-1878 period. Hence, immigrant neighbourhood in uskub demonstrates us how the experience of Mecidiye was disseminated in the empire to establish a new planned settlement at the edges of an existing city. The close examination of uskub case provides us with the necessary tools to understand how the resettlement of refugees had cross-geographical spatial patterns.Master Thesis Türkiye'de Çocuk Mekânının Konutta Oluşum ve Evrimi(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2022) Sezen, Öykü Su; Sezen, Öykü Su; Tozoğlu, Ahmet ErdemThis study historically examines the formation and development of children's domestic spaces in Turkey from the beginning of the twentieth century to the 1980s. As will be shown, political, cultural, economic, and social turns have influenced the formation of children's space in Turkey in this period. The changing meaning of childhood in Europe since the seventeenth century had become the central element of the construction of idealized middle-class nuclear families in the nineteenth century. In the Ottoman society, observable changes in the thoughts and practices about childhood had begun since the nineteenth century. While the shift in the childhood phenomenon in different societies contains similarities and differences, modernization is the key term that I will coin to explain this complex process. This thesis basically explores children's domestic spaces in Turkey by following the traces of the historical roots of the modern family construction and argues that the construction of a child as an individual cannot be read independently of the defined roles of the nuclear family members. In this way, it discovers the historical traces of the idea that the children should have their own living space within the home, which is one of the prominent issues while emphasizing the 'scientific' background of raising children. This thesis tries to set an original spatial reading on the changes in children's spaces by analyzing the visual materials, mainly taken from architecture magazines, home and life magazines, of the middle and upper-class houses in Istanbul and Ankara.
