| description | Beypazarı henna baths (bridal baths) of a tradition lost since the mid-Twentieth Century, are today a part of our cultural memory. A practice of a time when wedding ceremonies in Beypazarı lasted seven days, the henna bath culture has been made into a book, based on the reminiscences of locals, which has become a permanent exhibit of Turkey’s first-ever bath museum inaugurated in Beypazarı in 2012. This study takes up the Beypazarı henna baths as a brief evaluation of Jean Baudrillard’s thoughts on simulation, Anthony Giddens’ thoughts on modernism, and the theories of nostalgia put forward by Svetlana Boym. |
