| AbstractList | During the reign of Abdülhamid II, objects that had been gaining value as markers of a common identity began to fall into a system of categories and a complex of institutions of display characteristic of nineteenth-century Europe. In contrast to Europe, which was eagerly collecting trophies from recent colonial conquests, the Ottoman Empire was trying to hold on to its territories by collecting representative trophies and uniting them in the hierarchical, orderly world of its museums.
In Europe the museum spaces that developed to display the fruits of the labors of collection reflected epistemologies and ideologies central to the ethos This chapter describes the antique collections of Ottoman museums. It discusses the establishment of the sarcophagus museum and the museum enterprises outside of Istanbul. The chapter suggests that the adoption of Helleno-Byzantine antiquities as a cultural marker for the Ottoman Empire served not only as a sign of assimilation but also as a sign of resistance and a call for continued independence. |
