Ali Saim Ülgen (1913–63), a preservation architect, architectural historian, author, bureaucrat and educator, was a leading figure in the nascent field of heritage conservation during the early decades of the Republic of Turkey. This was a time when the Republican leaders sought to establish the national character of art and architecture by interpreting the “Turkishness” and uniqueness of the Ottoman heritage through the tenets of the Modern Movement. The reconciliation of the modernist rationale with nationalist historiography created contested paradigms in a nation searching for its cultural roots. Ülgen considerably contributed to the nationalist appropriation of the Ottoman heritage, but his taxonomical gaze stands out for its focus on contextual analysis. This essay addresses the dichotomy of documenting the Ottoman architectural patrimony through the lens of modernism, which is visible in Ülgen’s work, a remarkably understudied Republican intellectual.

阿里·塞姆·乌尔根(Ali SaimÜlgen,1913-63年)是一位保存建筑师,建筑历史学家,作家,官僚和教育家,在土耳其共和国成立初期,是新兴遗产保护领域的领军人物。当时,共和党领导人试图通过现代运动的宗旨来解释奥斯曼帝国遗产的“土耳其特色”和独特性,从而树立艺术和建筑的民族特色。现代主义理论与民族主义史学的和解在一个寻求其文化根源的国家中创造了有争议的范式。Ülgen极大地促进了民族主义对奥斯曼帝国遗产的侵占,但是他的分类注视着重于上下文分析。
