Tuluk, Ömer İskender
The Velipaşa Han, located in the dense commercial centre of the city of Çorum, can be considered the most important architectural monument of the city. The building, which was revealed to be built in the end of the 19th century, hosted many famous characters among whom are the journalists Refii Cevat Ulunay and Hüseyin Cahit Yalçın, the author Refik Halit Karay and the Princess Kadriye Hüseyin. The importance of the building comes from the planning and the facade characteristics which reflect the local inflences in contrast to the known types for the hans and hotels. Particularly with the similarities between the hotel part of the building, called “the Anadolu Otel”, and the traditional Çorum houses acquired a unique place for the building among other classical types. Discussion about the origin of the unique form of the building are still in the air, however it is known to belong to more recent times when it was rebuilt after a fire. The only source for the ground floor layout -which has almost lost the original form- is the narration of people who witnessed the use of the building starting from 1940s. The building, with these characteristics, constitutes to be one of the rare examples in Anatolia and undoubtedly deserves to be conserved. The first step to conservation naturally passes through the register, evaluation, interpretation and restitution studies for the building.

The so-called Maiden’s Tower, although not a grand and imposing monument, is nevertheless an irreplaceable feature of İstanbul skyline. The tower is in fact a much larger entity than its mere material existence or architectural quality; the legends surrounding it carry the monument to the realm of intangible heritage thus extending its value. Used for many different purposes during its long history (a defence castle, a lighthouse, a banishment site, a quarantine island...), the tower underwent a recent rest...

Osmanlı sergicilik tarihi içinde ikinci olma umuduyla yolan çıkan, ancak 1894 yılında gerçekleşen büyük İstanbul depremi nedeniyle iptal edilen Dersaadet Ziraat ve Sanayi Sergi-i Umumisi konusuna yoğunlaşan, mimarlık ve sanat tarihi bağlamında sınırlı sayıda araştırma vardır. 1893 yılında hazırlıkları yapılan sergi, Osmanlı mimarisine Raimondo D’Aronco gibi bir mimarı kazandırmasının ötesinde, Batı’nın uluslararası sergilerini model alan yaklaşımıyla, II. Abdülhamid döneminin ekonomik ve sosyal hayatını can...
