This study is an attempt to examine the literary house-museums located in istanbul. In the
chronological order of their transformations from houses into museums, these are Tevfik
Fikret house-museum in ASiyan, Rumelihisari (1945), Sait Faik Abasiyanik house-museum
in Burgazada (1964), and Hü / seyin Rahmi Gü / rpinar house-museum in Heybeliada (2000). By
pointing out their ambiguous position between privacy and publicity, this research seeks to
juxtapose the uses of these museums as houses in the past with the uses of these houses as
museums in the present. While doing that, it aims to read their spatial stories/histories by
focusing not only on the writers/inhabitants of the houses and the owners/organizers of the
museums, but also on the guests/visitors of these house-museums.
