And Latham, Tacitus, Ger mania, ) makes a similar suggestion respect ing the Rhine It is not likely that the Batavians of Holland, and the Helvetians of Switzerland, gave the same name to the very different parts of their common river. It does not follow then as a matter of course though we must accept it as the general rule - that the name by which a river is known at the present day, when it happens to be different from that recorded in history, is in all cases the less ancient of the two. There might originally have been two names, one of which has been preserved in history, and the other retained in modern use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New, Larger Print, 15 point fontThe object of the present work is to arrange and explain the names of European Rivers on a more comprehensive principle than has hitherto been attempted in England, or, to the best of my belief, in Germany.I am conscious that, like every other work of the same sort, it must necessarily, and without thereby impugning its general system, be subject to correction in many points of detail. And in particular, that some of its opinions might be modified or altered by a more exact knowledge of the characteristics of the various rivers than can possibly in all cases come within the scope of individual research.The first wave of Asian immigration that swept over Europe gave names to the great features of nature, such as the rivers, long before the wandering tribes that composed it settled down into fixed habitations, and gave names to their dwellings and their lands. The names thus given at the outset may be taken therefore to contain some of the most ancient forms of the Indo-European speech. And once given, they have in many, if not in most cases remained to the present day, for nothing affords such strong resistance to change as the name of a river.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The River Dnipro (formerly better known by the Russian name of Dnieper) is intimately linked to the history and identity of Ukraine. Cybriwsky discusses the history of the river, from when it was formed and its many uses and modifications by human agencies from ancient times to the present. From key vantage points along the river’s course—its source in western Russia, through Belarus and Ukraine, to the Black Sea—interesting stories shed light on past and present life in Ukraine. Scenes set along the river from Russian and Ukrainian literature are evoked, as well as musical compositions and works of art. Topics include the legacy of the region’s cultural ancestors as the Kyivan Rus, the period of Cossack dominion, the epic battles for the river’s bridges in World War II, the building of dams and huge reservoirs by the Soviet Union, and the crisis of Chornobyl (Chernobyl). The author argues that the Dnipro and the farmlands along it are Ukraine’s chief natural resources, and that the country's future depends on putting both to good use. Written without academic pretence in an informal style with dashes of humor, Along Ukraine's River is illustrated with original line drawings, maps, and photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rollo on the Rhine The water which falls upon this mountainous region must of course find its way to the sea. In doing so the thousands of smaller torrents unite with each other into larger and larger streams, until at length they make four mighty rivers the largest and most celebrated in Europe. All the streams of the southern slopes of the moun tains form one great river, which ﬂows cast into the Adriatic. This river is the Po. On the western side the thousands of mountain torrents combine and form the Rhone, which, making a great bend, turns to the southward, and ﬂows into the Mediterranean. On the eastern side the water can find no escape till it has traversed the whole continent to the eastward, and reached the Black Sea. This stream is the Danube. And finally, on the north the immense number of cas cades and torrents which come out from the gla ciers, or pour down the ravines, or meander through the valleys, or issue from the lakes, of the northern s10pe of the mountains, combine at Basle, and ﬂow north across the whole continent, nearly six hundred miles, to the North Sea. This river is the Rhine. All this, which I have thus been explaining, may be seen very clearly if you turn to any map of Europe, and find the mountainous region in the centre, and then trace the courses of the four great rivers, as I have described them.

Along the greater part of the great extent which lies between the limits named, comfortable passenger steamers run all through the summer season, and in these steamers the traveller may continue through Rumania and Bul garia down to the Black Sea, and all the colour and glamour of the Orient. In the upper parts of the river, before we can get aﬂoat on it, the Danube is as it were but an incident in the scenery, but, when once we reach the parts navigable by passenger steamers, the scenery becomes the setting or framework for the mighty stream.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rhine: From Its Source to the Sea Foremost among rivers is the Rhine, which, even two thousand years ago, was a watchword among nations. Its banks were im pressed with the footprints of Caesar's legions and Attila's cavalry, and centuries later, accompanied by a rejoicing people, King Conrad des cended the Rhine to Mainz for his coronation. Legend also has grown even as luxuriantly as History on the banks of the Rhine. As the ivy clings to the old castle walls, so do traditions fasten them selves to actual events. On the Rhine stood the castle of the N iebelungen, and on the Rhine the Lorelei sang. What country can compare in richness to that through which the Rhine ﬂows, from the snow-clad Alps down to the very sea in which it is lost? Here lay the cities of the old empire and the great seats of eccle siastical pomp, which lavished as recklessly as they grasped all that came within their power. Who does not feel the wealth that lies in. The words The Rhine, the wealth of Nature and of Art, of History and of Legend, of old and new life?

It is formed by the junction of two small streams, the Brigach and Breg, just below Donaueschingen in the German state of Baden, at a point feet above sea level. It runs in an easterly direction across the German states of Wurtemberg, in which, at the city of Ulm, it becomes navigable, and Bavaria, where, at Ratisbon, reg ular navigation commences, then, after leaving the port of Passau, enters Austria, whose capital, Vienna, is a river town. From Austria the Danube traverses Hun gary from west to east, then north to south, with Buda pest, the Hungarian capital, on its banks, and after crossing the Hungarian J ugo-slav territory it becomes the boundary between Hungary and Serbia, ' changing its course again to an easterly direction. Belgrade, in Serbia, is the third capital on its shore. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cultural phenomenon of exhibiting non-European people in front of the European audiences in the 19th and 20th century was concentrated in the metropolises in the western part of the continent. Nevertheless, traveling ethnic troupes and temporary exhibitions of non-European humans took place also in territories located to the east of the Oder river and Austria. The contributors to this edited volume present practices of ethnographic shows in Russia, Poland, Czechia, Slovenia, Hungary, Germany, Romania, and Austria and discuss the reactions of local audiences. The essays offer critical arguments to rethink narratives of cultural encounters in the context of ethnic shows. By demonstrating the many ways in which the western models and customs were reshaped, developed, and contested in Central and Eastern European contexts, the authors argue that the dominant way of characterizing these performances as “human zoos” is too narrow. The contributors had to tackle the difficult task of finding traces other than faint copies of official press releases by the tour organizers. The original source material was drawn from local archives, museums, and newspapers of the discussed period. A unique feature of the volume is the rich amount of images that complement every single case study of ethnic shows.
