Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nomads of the Balkans, an Account of Life and Customs Among the Vlachs of Northern Pindus In writing Vlach phonetically we have used as simple an alphabet as possible and endeavoured to avoid the use of diacritical marks. The symbols used are to be pronounced as follows: - a, e, i and u as in German, o as a closed o as in the French côte, oa as an open sound as in the French bois, ea to resemble the Italian ia in words such as pianta, ai as in the English i as in mice, ei as the English ay in play, ao and au as the German au, î and û as whispered sounds, the latter like a half uttered English w, â like the English er in better, while is a vowel sound peculiar to Roumanian and its dialects which cannot be described, p and b as in English, t and d as in Enghsh, g as the hard English g as in gape, k as the hard English c in care, y as in yacht, gh (the Greek) like the g in North German words such as Tage, h like the Scottish ch in loch, m and n as in English and n as the English n in finger, l as in English and r as in Scottish, f and v as in English, th (the Greek) as the th in thorough, dh (the Greek) as th in then, s and z as in English, sh as in English and zh as the z in azure, tsh like the English ch in church, and dzh like the English j, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman Empires, foreign invasion, communism and tribal conflict: these have been the realities of life in Northern Albania for centuries. In this rich and comprehensive history, Tom Winnifrith examines the many different elements that have shaped this independent and little-known region of the Balkans. He explores the fundamental division between the South of Albania and its mysterious, romantic North - more feudal, more tribal, more Catholic and more prone to Austrian and Italian influence. It is also a region less affected by Greece, both ancient and modern, and by medieval Byzantium or the Orthodox faith. Northern Albania, with a terrain and climate much harsher than the south of the country, has traditionally had little respect for law and authority while its inhabitants remain in thrall to an ancient honour code -- the kanun -- demanding blood feuds and terrible revenge. Nobody's Kingdom traces the history of this ruggedly beautiful region, frequently disturbed by both invaders and internal strife yet retaining a distinct national identity and character. From its origins in the ancient kingdom of Illyria and the Roman province of Illyricum, through Byzantine and Ottoman rule, the granting of Albanian independence in 1912, the rise and fall of communism to its current fragile democracy, Northern Albania can be seen as a cultural crossroads - especially remarkable given its mountainous and difficult landscape. This book, both scholarly and readable, is the first modern comprehensive history of Northern Albania and is a timely and accessible introduction to a remote and inaccessible region.

Download or read book Balkan Worlds: The First and Last Europe written by Traian Stoianovich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encompassing the period from the Neolithic era to the troubled present, this book studies the peoples, societies and cultures of the area situated between the Adriatic Sea in the west and the Black Sea in the east, between the Alpine region and Danube basin in the north and the Aegean Sea in the south. This is not a conventional history of the Balkans. Drawing upon archaeology, anthropology, economics, psychology and linguistics as well as history, the author has attempted a "total history" that integrates as many as possible of the avenues and categories of the Balkan experience.

Download or read book The Legend of Basil the Bulgar-Slayer written by Paul Stephenson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-08-07 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reign of Basil II (976-1025), the longest of any Byzantine emperor, has long been considered as a 'golden age', in which his greatest achievement was the annexation of Bulgaria. This, we have been told, was achieved through a long and bloody war of attrition which won Basil the grisly epithet Voulgartoktonos, 'the Bulgar-slayer'. In this new study Paul Stephenson argues that neither of these beliefs is true. Instead, Basil fought far more sporadically in the Balkans and his reputation as 'Bulgar-slayer' was created only a century and a half later. Thereafter the 'Bulgar-slayer' was periodically to play a galvanizing role for the Byzantines, returning to centre-stage as Greeks struggled to establish a modern nation state. As Byzantium was embraced as the Greek past by scholars and politicians, the 'Bulgar-slayer' became an icon in the struggle for Macedonia (1904-8) and the Balkan Wars (1912-13).
