There have been five different settings that at one time or another have contained
the dead body of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, organizer of the Turkish War of Independence
(1919-1923) and first president of the Republic of Turkey. Narrating the story of
these different architectural constructions - the bedroom in Dolmabahçe Palace, Istanbul,
where he died; a temporary catafalque in this same palace; his funeral stage in Turkey's
new capital Ankara; a temporary tomb in the Ankara Ethnographic Museum and his permanent
and monumental mausoleum in Ankara, known in Turkish as "Anıtkabir" (Memorial Tomb)
- this book also describes and interprets the movement of Ataturk's body through the
cities of Istanbul and Ankara and also the nation of Turkey to reach these destinations.
The book examines how each one of these locations - accidental, designed, temporary,
permanent - has contributed in its own way to the construction of a Turkish national
memory about Ataturk. Lastly, the two permanent constructions - the Dolmabahçe Palace
bedroom and Anıtkabir - have changed in many ways since their first appearance in
order to maintain this national memory. These changes are exposed to reveal a dynamic,
rather than dull, impression of funerary architecture
