Gallipoli: History, Memory and National Imagination is a collection of a number of papers presented at the first and second international symposiums held on 3 April 2008 and 15-16 April 2009 respectively at the Australian National University, Canberra. The speaker were from Turkey, Canada, New Zealand and anumber of universities across Australia. The papers presented reflect a rational and multidisciplinary approach to history of the region itself prior to the campaign as well as the literature, memory and national imagination folloowing the campaign. The symposiums with their new dimensions clearly indicate that not enough has been written on the campaign and its aftermath. The campaign and the gentlemanly combats between Anzacs and Turks marked a unique relationship between Australia and Turkey and since then played a signifincant role for the development of bi-lateral relations between the two countries. Ataturk's fame first came out of this campaign, and Australia acknowledged this through reserving a significant location for Ataturk Memorial on Anzac Parade in Canberra.
