Staging Theatre Historiography: The Afterlives of Ottoman Armenian Drama in Contemporary Turkish Public Theatre

Şeyda Nur Yıldırım · 2023

Catalogue summary

The study follows a contemporary Turkish public-theatre adaptation of Hagop Baronian's 1868 Armenian drama and analyzes how state-supported performance negotiates Ottoman Armenian history, memory, and political ambiguity.

Why this matters

It links a specific theatrical afterlife to the public staging of Armenian memory in Turkey, a perspective often missing from political-theatre scholarship.
