Download or read book FROM THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST written by John Irtel and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-01-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He has recounted to friends and acquaintances some episodes of his many adventures through life, and his listeners have always found them interesting, fascinating, entertaining, and worth telling. This dawned the momentous chronicling of this part memoir, part historical account of his life, his country, and his journey. In this newly published book, From the Land Beyond the Forest, author John Irtel shares from whence he came, to his escape and survival, to his arrival and new life on a new land, and more. Divided into two sections, the first part of this book briefly deals with the history of the land and the Saxon people of Transylvania, including some traditions and customs, which were part of the author when he was young. The history of Transylvania is rich and long and would require much research to do it justice. The highlights pertaining to his own life include the aftermath of the Second World War, his escape from Romania in 1947, and his life as a refugee in Austria and Italy. The second part of this book deals with the period from his departure from Europe to Australia as a nineteen-year-old immigrant, which posed as the biggest and most important challenge in his life. However, the curious fascination he developed for his new country and its people enabled him to adjust and assimilate into the community more easily than many others have done. “I have seen more than seventy years of life passing by, from childhood to old age. I have seen many changes, enjoyed happiness and endured pain. I can truly say that life has been an interesting challenge,” shares Irtel. Author shares his country’s history, his past, his new home, and his life in this memoir.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chosen for the Duchess of Cornwall's online book club The Reading Room by HRH The Prince of Wales When William Blacker first crossed the snow-bound passes of northern Romania, he stumbled upon an almost medieval world. There, for many years he lived side by side with the country people, a life ruled by the slow cycle of the seasons, far away from the frantic rush of the modern world. In spring as the pear trees blossomed he ploughed with horses, in summer he scythed the hay meadows and in the freezing winters gathered wood by sleigh from the forest. From sheepfolds harried by wolves, to courting expeditions in the snow, he experienced the traditional way of life to the full, and became accepted into a community who treated him as one of their own. But Blacker was also intrigued by the Gypsies, those dark, foot-loose strangers of spell-binding allure who he saw passing through the village. Locals warned him to stay clear but he fell in love and there followed a bitter struggle. Change is now coming to rural Romania, and William Blacker's adventures will soon be part of its history. From his early carefree days tramping the hills of Transylvania, to the book's poignant ending, Along the Enchanted Way transports us back to a magical country world most of us thought had vanished long ago.

Download or read book The Remote Borderland written by Laszlo Kurti and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2001-07-19 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Remote Borderland explores the significance of the contested region of Transylvania to the creation of Hungarian national identity. Author László Kürti illustrates the process by which European intellectuals, politicians, and artists locate their nation's territory, embody it with meaning, and reassert its importance at various historical junctures. The book's discussion of the contested and negotiated nature of nationality in its East Central European setting reveals cultural assumptions profoundly mortgaged to twentieth-century notions of home, nation, state, and people. The Remote Borderland shows that it is not only important to recognize that nations are imagined, but to note how and where they are imagined in order to truly understand the transformation of European societies during the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: Harlemville is a small community in North America that adheres to the philosophical writings of the Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner and his Waldorf schooling system. The community encourages freedom of expression, creativity and imagination, which in turn is meant to imbue an uninhibited self-confidence and self-awareness rarely present in mainstream American society. Clare Richardson spent 24 months observing the community firsthand and found their reverence for nature and the "confident quietness" of this small place in the world to be captivating. With their quiet, formal clarity, her images evoke a nostalgic sense of innocence; Harlemville appears idyllic in its radical optimism.

Download or read book Dracula's Bloodline written by Radu R. Florescu and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-08-02 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engrossing book tells the story of the Florescu family, from its feudal blood ties, to the notorious 15th century figure Vlad Tepes (Count Dracula), right up to present day, touching on such diverse personalities as the Kennedys, Bill Clinton, and Michael Jackson. In the tradition of Alex Haley’s Roots, Dracula’s Bloodline relates a multi-generational saga through the prism of one family’s narrative, from medieval Eastern Europe to the post-Communist era. The book provides an inside look at Romania’s bloody and turbulent history—a mostly untold narrative that embraces the cruel Ottoman invasions, vying boyars seeking to change the political order at home, and the toppling of the Ceausescu regime. The story of each century is told through the eyes of one Florescu (or more) who had a unique perch from which to view his or her contemporary society. Florescu and Cazacu drew on research that had mostly been kept in family hands. To track the Florescu footprint down through the centuries since the 1400s, they used many sources: the Brasov archives in Transylvania, select letters, unpublished diaries, and extensive family documents that have been scattered from Europe to the United States. This fully indexed book offers many photographs from family archives, as well as a glossary of terms and titles, and a full genealogy showing the Florescu’s family links to Vlad Tepes.
