Memory of a City-Sociocultural Life in Kayseri

Every city has a memory. It is this memory that distinguishes cities from each other, gives them certain characters and gives them an identity. Every person living in the city benefits from this memory. It is kneaded with this memory and continues its life. Every person also contributes to shaping the memory of the city. On the one hand, it protects the memory and on the other hand, it builds it. This mutual relationship between Man and City creates city culture. Therefore, without knowing the history of a city, without visiting its streets, without knowing its people, without knowing its bookstores, bazaars, bazaars and coffeehouses; In short, it is impossible to understand his memory without observing the city. Developing a sociological perspective on that city is only possible with such an interest.

This book aims to develop a sociological perspective on Kayseri, one of the ancient cities of Anatolia. In this respect, he claims that cities, which contain every element of life, should not be viewed from only one dimension. Therefore, the book understands the city not only as a product of economic or political processes, but as a process that encompasses the entire daily life, and tries to address Kayseri from such a perspective.
