CHAPTER XXII SOME HISTORY AND A FEW POSSIBILITIES The "Bulgarian atrocities" of 1875-) centred the attention of Europe on the Balkans: There had been previous instances of murder and rapine, on a wholesale scale, in the Sultan's dominions, but the awful slaughter at the village of Batak, not far from the town of T'Barzardjeck, was the culmination of all. It was more than the world could stand, and within a few months, the regiments of the Czar were pouring across the Pruth, and the thunders of cannon awakened the echoes of the Rhodope passes. Plevna fell, after one of the most heroic defences in history; nothing could stand before the victorious Russians. They took Adrianople, and the road to Constantinople was open to them; their battalions were in position on the Bosphorus. It seemed as if no power could prevent the absorption of European Turkey by the "Colossus of the North." Then England stepped forward. It is difficult, nowadays, to realise the heat of resentment and nervous dread, with which the English people watched Russia's final succession of triumphs. Englishmen saw Constantinople turned into a Russian outpost, the Mediterranean a Russian lake, the road to India threatened. Led by Disraeli, a strong war-party dominated the nation's councils. English warships were ordered through the Dardanelles, and notice was served on Russia that she must be prepared to remit her demands. For a span of hours, the peace of the world hung by a hair. In the end, Russia backed down. The Treaty of San Stefano, dictated by Russian might, at the gates of the Ottoman capital, was abrogated, and Bismarck summoned the Congress of Berlin to consider an entire rearrangement of Balkan affairs. It is not necessary to deal at length with the results of the...

Book excerpt: This, "The Story of a Latter-Day Adventurer," is the author's observations of the course of the First Balkan War (1912-1913), particularly the Battle of Lule Burgas (Oct. 31 to Nov. 3, 1912). The author is an eyewitness to that battle, the retreat, and the lives of the soldiers and citizens nearby. He does not pretend to an objective or complete viewpoint, rather he uses speculation, sensational description, and recreated conversations for dramatic effect. Valuable for its firsthand information, especially its descriptions of the commonplace events happening despite the battle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In "The Turk" in the Czech Imagination (1870s-1923), Jitka Malečková describes Czechs' views of the Turks in the last half century of the existence of the Ottoman Empire and how they were influenced by ideas and trends in other countries, including the European fascination with the Orient, images of "the Turk," contemporary scholarship, and racial theories. The Czechs were not free from colonial ambitions either, as their attitude to Bosnia-Herzegovina demonstrates, but their viewpoint was different from that found in imperial states and among the peoples who had experienced Ottoman rule. The book convincingly shows that the Czechs mainly viewed the Turks through the lenses of nationalism and Pan-Slavism - in solidarity with the Slavs fighting against Ottoman rule"--

Download or read book Defeat in Detail written by Edward J. Erickson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No critical analysis has ever examined the specific reasons for the Ottoman defeat. Erickson's study fills this gap by studying the operations of the Ottoman Army from October 1912 through July 1913, and by providing a comprehensive explanation of its doctrines and planning procedures. This book is written at an operational level that details every campaign at the level of the army corps. More than 30 maps, numerous orders of battle, and actual Ottoman Army operations orders illustrate how the Turks planned and fought their battles. Of particular note is the inclusion of the only detailed history in English of the Ottoman X Corps' Sarkoy amphibious invasion. Also included are definitive appendix about Ottoman military aviation and a summary of the Turks' efforts to incorporate the lessons learned from the war into their military structure in 1914. The Ottoman Empire fought the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 against the joint forces of Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, and Serbia—and was decisively defeated. The Ottoman Army is frequently depicted as a mob of poorly clad, faceless Turks inept in their attempts to fight a modern war. Yet by 1912, the Ottoman Army, which was constructed on the German model, was in many ways more advanced than certain European armies.

Download or read book The Ottoman Culture of Defeat written by Eyal Ginio and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first Balkan War broke out in October 1912, few Ottomans anticipated that it would prove to be a watershed moment for the Empire, ending in ignominy, national catastrophe, and the loss of its remaining provinces in the Balkans. Defeat at the hands of an alliance of Balkan powers comprising Bulgaria, Greece, Serbia and Montenegro set the stage for the Balkan Crisis of 1914 and would serve as a prelude to WWI. It was also a moment of deep national trauma and led to bitter soul-searching, giving rise to a so-called 'Culture of Defeat' in which condemnation and criticism flourished in a way seemingly at odds with the reformist debate which followed the Young Turk Revolution of 1908.Eyal Ginio's clear-eyed and rigorously researched book uncovers the different visual and written products of the defeat, published in Ottoman Turkish, Arabic and Ladino, with the aim of understanding the experience of defeat - how it was perceived, analysed and commemorated by different sectors in Ottoman society - to show that it is key to understanding the actions of the Ottoman political elite during the subsequent World War and the early decades of the Turkish Republic.
