Book Synopsis The Conquest of Turkey by : Linus Pierpont Brockett
Download or read book The Conquest of Turkey written by Linus Pierpont Brockett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conquest of Turkey: Or, the Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire, 1877-8 Deeming no apology necessary in offering the present volume to the public, either in respect to its subject or our method of presenting it, our preface is designed simply to invite attention to some facts and features of the work. Early last summer, Dr. L. P. Brockett published an interesting work, "The Cross and the Crescent," as an introduction to a history of the war then but just begun. When the time came for writing the history, however, that gentleman, for reasons of health and the pressure of other engagements, relinquished his purpose. Believing that a concise and reliable history would prove of value and interest to Americans, we have undertaken to compile and write one. It will be observed that we have prefixed the substance of Dr. Brockett's work to our history, omitting only those passages which did not appear strictly germane to an introduction. The first eight chapters and the biographies are abridged from the former work, the succeeding chapters are ours. We do not claim that the work is original in the same sense or to the same extent that we should make a treatise or an essay original; for instance, inasmuch as we were not an eye-witness of the battles or historic events narrated, we have necessarily obtained our facts at secondhand. But, on the other hand, we have not blindly copied or heedlessly followed the accounts of any one authority but have critically examined every accessible newspaper, magazine, pamphlet and book, in which information was to be obtained, comparing one with the others, and, when possible, discriminating between the several correspondents and other writers, and between the stated facts and the opinions and suppositions of each.

Book Synopsis The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire by : Alan Palmer
Download or read book The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire written by Alan Palmer and published by Barnes & Noble Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like England's Charles II, the Ottoman Empire took "an unconscionable time dying." Since the seventeenth century, observers had been predicting the collapse of this so-called Sick Man of Europe, yet it survived all its rivals. As late as 1910, the Ottoman Empire straddled three continents. Unlike the Romanovs, Habsburgs, or Hohenzollerns, the House of Osman, which had allied itself with the Kaiser, was still recognized as an imperial dynasty during the peace conference following World War I. "The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire" offers a provocative view of the empire's decline, from the failure to take Vienna in 1683 to the abolition of the Sultanate by Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) in 1922 during a revolutionary upsurge in Turkish national pride. The narrative contains instances of violent revolt and bloody reprisals, such as the massacres of Armenians in 1896, and other "ethnic episodes" in Crete and Macedonia. More generally, it emphasizes recurring problems: competition between religious and secular authority; the acceptance or rejection of Western ideas; and the strength or weakness of successive Sultans. The book also highlights the special challenges of the early twentieth century, when railways and oilfields gave new importance to Ottoman lands in the Middle East. Events of the past few years have placed the problems that faced the last Sultans back on the world agenda. The old empire's outposts in the Balkans and in Iraq are still considered trouble spots. Alan Palmer offers considerable insight into the historical roots of many contemporary problems: the Kurdish struggle for survival, the sad continuity of conflict in Lebanon, and the centuries-old Muslim presence in Sarajevo. He also recounts the Ottoman Empire's lingering interests in their oil-rich Libyan provinces. By exploring that legacy over the past three centuries, "The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire" examines a past whose effect on the present may go a long way toward explaining the future. Praise for "The Decline and Fall of the Ottoman Empire" "Alan Palmer writes the sort of history that dons did before 'accessible' became an academic insult. It is cool, rational, scholarly, literate."--John Keegan "A scholarly, readable and balanced history."--"The Independent on Sunday" "A marvellously readable book based on massive research."--Robert Blake

Book Synopsis Crisis of the Ottoman Empire by : James J. Reid
Download or read book Crisis of the Ottoman Empire written by James J. Reid and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 2000 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses upon the military problems of the Ottoman Empire in the era 1839 to 1878. The author examines the Crimean War (1853 to 1856) from the perspective of the Ottoman army, using British and French sources, as well as the few available Ottoman materials. Scholarship on the war has ignored this aspect, but the high quality of work about the British, French, and Russian involvement in the war has enabled the present study to advance its own work. The inability of the Ottoman high command to learn the lessons of the Crimean War led to serious defeats in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. Revolts occurring in this period also receive attention. While the book analyzes the nature of war in the Balkans and Anatolia, its primary objective is the study of the war's social and psychological influences. This perspective runs as a theme throughout the book, but the author focuses on the psychological aspects in the final chapter using comparative perspectives. .

This book was released on 2011-11-07 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An amusing (really) account of the murderous ways of despots, slave traders, blundering royals, gladiators and assorted hordes.”—New York Times Evangelists of human progress meet their opposite in Matthew White’s epic examination of history’s one hundred most violent events, or, in White’s piquant phrasing, “the numbers that people want to argue about.” Reaching back to the Second Persian War in 480 BCE and moving chronologically through history, White surrounds hard facts (time and place) and succinct takeaways (who usually gets the blame?) with lively military, social, and political histories.

Book Synopsis The Shaping of Turkey in the British Imagination, 1776–1923 by : David S. Katz
Download or read book The Shaping of Turkey in the British Imagination, 1776–1923 written by David S. Katz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the principal writings that shaped the perception of Turkey for informed readers in English, from Edward Gibbon’s positing of imperial Decline and Fall to the proclamation of the Turkish Republic (1923), illustrating how Turkey has always been a part of the modern British and European experience. It is a great sweep of a story: from Gibbon as standard textbook, through Lord Bryon the pro-Turkish poet, and Benjamin Disraeli the Romantic novelist of all things Eastern, followed by John Buchan's Greenmantle First World War espionage fantasies, and then Manchester Guardian reporter Arnold Toynbee narrating the fight for Turkish independence.
