Identification as a community of sufferers has been a key feature of Turkish Cypriot trans-generational discourse since the 1960's. The changes in space and restrictions on mobility brought about by interethnic conflict and traffic accidents are two of the most prominently articulated sources of past and present suffering. I explore how these two parallel sources of suffering take shape in intergenerational negotiation of space and mobility through an analysis of the material realms of mass media, museums and memorials as well as of face-to-face interaction and personal self-reflection.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Identification as a community of sufferers has been a key feature of Turkish Cypriot trans-generational discourse since the 1960's. The changes in space and restrictions on mobility brought about by interethnic conflict and traffic accidents are two of the most prominently articulated sources of past and present suffering. I explore how these two parallel sources of suffering take shape in intergenerational negotiation of space and mobility through an analysis of the material realms of mass media, museums and memorials as well as of face-to-face interaction and personal self-reflection.
520 $a First, I investigate how the contestation of memory, ethno-national identity and ethical constraints on mobility have shaped the Turkish Cypriot collective identification as sufferer. Then I focus on how a street, Mehmet Akif Caddesi, and its two museums (the Museum of Barbarism and the Cemal S. Celik Traffic Museum) are important locations for studying the intergenerational discourse on space and past and present suffering.
520 $a I have found that the Turkish Cypriot community, like other marginalized communities, grapples with constraints on mobility in a struggle for greater self-determination. In North Cyprus narratives of suffering are an important medium for both personal and collective engagement in this struggle. Furthermore, narratives of suffering dealing with constraints on physical and social mobility serve as an important expression of the intergenerational contestation of identification as sufferers. The Museum of Barbarism and the Cemal S. Celik Traffic Museum are designed to act as ritual sites for the intergenerational transfer of identification as sufferer.
520 $a I have found that Turkish Cypriot narratives of suffering offer spatial and temporal orientation to the narrator and the recipient. They rely on emotional remembering, forgetting and reorientation around visual evidence as techniques of collectivizing suffering across generations. Ultimately, the intergenerational transfer of the identification as sufferer in North Cyprus is a process full of contestation and resistance. While successfully orienting young people to collective Turkish Cypriot suffering, discourses of suffering have also led to new ways by which Turkish Cypriots make sense of their past and present collective suffering.
