She is interested in collective memory, popular culture and narratives of history. Yagmur is currently working on her dissertation project on Ottomania, which focuses on contemporary interest in the Ottoman past in Turkey. She is interested in how different groups of minorities engage with the ways in which Ottoman past is recalled and how they situate themselves in this narrative.\u00a0During her Badzin Graduate Fellowship year, she will focus on the commemoration of the Holocaust in Turkey, and the relative silence on the Armenian genocide situating both of these phenomena in the current political interest in the Ottoman past. This project will engage with current debates regarding memorialization and denial in the field of Holocaust and genocide studies within the context of Turkey.\u00a0She will be focusing on\u00a0two major non-Muslim minorities in Turkey: the Jewish and Armenian population, conducting interviews with the members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Center for\u00a0Holocaust\u00a0and Genocide Studies and the Department of History are\u00a0pleased to announce the 2015-2016 Bernard and Fern Badzin Fellow in Holocaust and Genocide Studies.
