Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sultan and His Subjects And the writer of this book offers as an excuse for this bulky volume that his researches on the spot, as well as in every attainable work of authority on a subject so wide, so deep, and so important could not, with justice, be compressed into a smaller space. On the other hand, each chapter of this book could easily be developed into a thick volume by itself, and yet not exhaust its subject. The orthography of Eastern words is a difficult and delicate matter. It has been treated in these pages in a way that will, it is hoped, make easy reading for the unlearned, and not offend the Oriental scholar. In most cases the phonetic equivalent of Arabic and Turkish words has been given to the best of the author's ability. But for certain well-known terms, such as the name of the Prophet, the old-fashioned orthography of "Mahomet," instead of the more recent "Mohammed," has been retained, as being the most familiar, and therefore the most convenient, to the ordinary reader. It may perhaps be added that the spelling of Oriental words is an unsettled and contentious matter, and it will frequently be noticed that the same name is written differently by German, French, Spanish, Italian, and English authorities, each trustworthy enough as to his information, but each repeating the word as it strikes his own ear. In conclusion, cordial thanks are offered to those who, by their advice and experience, have contributed to the composition of this book, especially to the friends in Constantinople and in England who have kindly assisted the author in the collection of facts, and through whose good offices he has been able to see and hear much that must otherwise have escaped his observation, and who have thus helped him to thoroughly revise and correct the present edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following book, embody the results of an earnest attempt to set forth the chief characteristics of those heterogeneous nationalities which, in process of time and by virtue of conquest, have fallen under the dominion of Islam. The work deals with the Ottoman and Christian subjects of the Sultan generally, but chiefly with the Turks of Constantinople. In the preparation of this edition of his work the author has endeavoured to bring the contents up to the present date, without, however, entering into too many details, whereby the book, already a bulky one, would have become both tedious and cumbersome. Many friends have aided him in this task by their advice and assistance, amongst them being His Excellency D. G. Metaxas, the Greek Plenipotentiary to our Court, who most kindly read, and in part revised, the chapter on the Greeks in Constantinople. The author has studied his subject with a serious desire to bring before the intelligent reading public of this country such facts and such anecdotes (elucidatory and explanatory) as may enable an impartial reader to form a fair conclusion as to the present conditions and the probable destiny of that great Oriental Empire on whose future action and fate so much of the peace and welfare of Western Europe depends. To attain such a purpose, a knowledge of the life and manners of the Turks and of the Eastern Christians, and of their religious and political views, is indispensable. And the writer of this book offers as an excuse for this bulky volume that his researches on the spot, as well as in every attainable work of authority on a subject so wide, so deep, and so important could not, with justice, be compressed into a smaller space. On the other hand, each chapter of this book could easily be developed into a thick volume by itself, and yet not exhaust its subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sultan and the Powers The first half of this volume consists of signed articles, revised and enlarged, which I contri buted to the Daily Chronicle in the end Of September and the first half of October. I received numerous letters from all parts Of the country, as did also the Editor Of the Daily Chronicle, urging that they Should be republished. On re-reading them for that purpose, I saw that a good deal more was needed to elucidate the. Subject, and the result is the present volume. I have tried to be fair all round, and have striven to Obey the precept Nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice.' It would have been more agreeable to me to praise instead Of blaming men Whom I admire, and from Whom I have received undeserved kindnesses; and I can only plead - Si parcel licet componere magnis Aristotle's excuse for criticising his great master's doctrine Of Ideas. Where the interests of truth are actually at stake it is a duty to sacrifice in its defence the most valuable private possession, including precious friendships.

By presenting a new vision of Ottoman cultural history, Subjects of the Sultan fills a huge gap and will fascinate not only historians of the Middle East but also social historians, students and discerning readers interested in history."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turkey and Its Future The nineteenth and twentieth centuries will probably be noted in future history as an age of fundamental changes, both in the political and scientific worlds. It has been an age which has witnessed a marvellous increase in scientific discoveries and in their adaptation to the well-being of the human race. It has also been an age of revivals, of the awakening into life of races which had been long considered as somnolent, if not dead. The changes which have taken place in the East have startled the Western world as something almost supernatural in their suddenness. Who could have thought, fifty years ago, that Japan would spring in so short a time from semi-barbarism, as was supposed, to be one of the strongest Powers in the world? We have at last recognised the fact that the best results of Western civilisation, and a knowledge of applied science in all its forms, can be acquired and even improved upon by Oriental peoples. We must admit that what has been accomplished by Japan may, in time, be also effected by other Eastern nations, with results that no man can foresee; and that it was from no lack of mental capacity or intelligence that the East has, for so many ages, looked upon Western civilisation with haughty indifference, if not contempt. The learning and traditions of the Eastern sages of the past were considered sufficient wisdom for the happiness of the human race.
