As population is scanty and land plentiful, a sufficient inducement to undertake the trouble Young's Night Thoughts. PLOUGHS AND GOADS. 267 of clearing the valley is wanting; and it consequently remains almost entirely uncultivated; but the appearance of extraordinary desolation which stamped it at the time of our visit was in part attributable to the unwonted severity of the then recent winter. The snow was still lying in large patches at the foot of the two parallel chains of hills, while the angry torrents rushing into the valley had carried away nearly every vestige of a road, and greatly impeded the traveller's progress. The few peasants we met complained bitterly of their loss of cattle, saying that, owing to the intensity of the late cold, nearly all the females among the animals had died. The ploughs are of the simplest possible construction. A long pole parallel to the ground has one end curved so as to raise it over the neck of the oxen. Across the other a second piece of wood is fixed at an angle of 110 or 130; one extremity of which enters the ground; the other serves as a handle. The goad with which the cattle are urged is nothing more than a stick, furnished with an iron point and a heavy hoe-shaped piece of metal for scraping mud off the plough. It was probably with some such weapon as this, by no means inoffensive, that Shamgar, 268 BAALBEC. the " deliverer of Israel," slew six hundred of the Philistines. The valley leads direct to the desert in which Palmyra stands; and the temptation to extend our tour to that famous scene of ruins was great; but a fear of encountering the heat...

Excerpt: ... chapter xiii. turkey and the turks. Excursions in Constantinople are rendered disagreeable by the impossibility of procuring a carriage and by the nature of the streets, which are so narrow, ill paved, and dirty, that walking is irksome. The only vehicle to be seen is an arabuh, or painted cart without springs, surmounted by a canopy on four poles, and drawn by two bullocks whose tail are tied to a slick fastened over their backs. In carts of this description the Turkish females occasionally ride; they seem, however, to prefer walking, and are to be met in every street with their faces veiled. Passing several of these accompanied by their sable attendants, we inquired of our guide, himself a Turk, what power the master possesses over his slaves, and whether they are often punished to excess. His reply was characteristic of the Mohammedan and of his low estimate of human life; "Suppose their masters do flog them to death, what does it matter's It is nobody's business but their own. Their own money is lost, not another's." As we advanced, we met a man leading a long train of negresses, whose merry faces and gay chattering consorted ill with their name and condition; for they were slaves, returning unsold after the day's market, as no one had bidden for them. It was difficult to conjecture whether their hilarity arose from satisfaction at not having passed from the hands of a dealer into those of a new master, or from a conviction that they would prove more saleable the ensuing day. Though the principle of slavery be absolutely indefensible, yet all degrees of it are not equally intolerable; and every one acquainted with the Turkish character and customs will admit that in no country is the slave placed in so favourable a position as in...

Download or read book Glimpses of the Bulgarian Other in British Travel Literature written by Dimitrios Kassis and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-07 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until its emancipation from the Ottoman yoke, Bulgaria always occupied an unprivileged and unfavourable position in British imagination, from the very first mention of the country in Western travelogues. However, since the late eighteenth century, the Bulgarian nation has been subjected to the scrutiny of the British traveller owing to its proximity to other nations whose national struggles received more prominence, and consequently overshadowed the Bulgarians’ National Renaissance, such as Serbia and Greece. This volume concerns all the depictions of Bulgaria as a dystopian land from the eighteenth century until the country’s emergence as an important military power after its Liberation movement in 1878. In these travel narratives, the notion of the Bulgarian nationhood is described as an antithesis to idea of the civilised British, but also as a threat to the stability of the Ottoman Empire. With the rapid decline of the latter, from a mere Ottoman province, Bulgaria gradually transforms into a nation whose National Revival efforts come to the fore to question the British and Ottoman depictions of the Bulgarian nation as subaltern and uncultivated.

Download or read book Dystopian Depictions of Serbia in British Travel Literature written by Dimitrios Kassis and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without any doubt, one of the European regions that has never ceased to trouble the Westerner traveller is the Balkan Peninsula, which functioned as a terra incognita within the British travel canon, and served as the transit point to the Ottoman Empire or the Old Grecian world. At a time when Anglo-Saxonism occupied a prevalent position in British political discourse, the Balkan Peninsula came to epitomise all the negative qualities of the Orient that British travellers were anxious to apply to alien countries that were far removed from the nation-building agenda of the Empire. As such, classified as the fringe of the Orient, Serbia was persistently depicted as a politically unstable region, inhabited by primitive ethnic groups that could possibly threaten the viability of the British imperialist interests in European Turkey. In the light of the Serbian national struggle to promote the idea of a South-Slavic Union or forge an identity against the Austrian and Ottoman Empires, some British travellers undertook a journey to all the Balkan states where Serbians formed the majority of the population to demonise the War of Liberation of the Balkan states against the Ottoman yoke, treating it as visible evidence of Russian Expansionism. This book concentrates on dystopian British imagology of Serbia as a travel destination, including travel accounts produced from 1717 until 1911, a year prior to the outbreak of the First World War. The travel texts incorporated into this volume shed light on all the conceptualisations of the Balkans, addressing the sociopolitical conditions that sparked the national awakening of Serbia.
