Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: România lui Caragiale văzută prin ochii unui englez Pentru cititorul de azi, una dintre cele mai surprinzătoare întâlniri pe care le prilejuiește acest volum este imaginea României lui Caragiale văzute prin ochii unui englez. Este o Românie care iese din amorțeala Răsăritului și se îndreaptă grăbită spre Europa progresului, o Românie cu pașii nesiguri, dar care gesticulează exuberant, însuflețită de un entuziasm copilăresc. Englezul nostru ajunge aici la puțină vreme după ce se stinge vacarmul revoluției de la Ploiești, pe care o pomenește în câteva rânduri. Este un obișnuit al Teatrului Național — unde tânărul republican Caragiale funcționează ca sufleur — și se lasă prins în vâltoarea carnavalurilor și a încăierărilor de galerie. Înregistrează spectacolul grotesc al duelurilor între spadasinii de ocazie care se luptă pentru o birjă de față cu damele. Contemplă forfota amploaiaților și ofițerimii mărunte care-și zăngăne săbiile la promenadă pe caldarâmul plin de gropi. Se răcorește cu o bere în grădinile de vară, vrăjit de muzica lăutarilor, cot la cot cu vreun jupân Dumitrache. Se amestecă în zarva și mulțimea de la târgul Moșilor. Admiră caleașca principelui Carol și a principesei Elisabeta la Șosea. Și, desigur, petrece o noapte la stabilimentul central din Ploiești, în atmosfera colbuită și sordidă pe care o știm prea bine din „Grand Hôtel Victoria Română“. Dincolo de pitorescul burgheziei române care abia lepădase giubeaua și încerca să se deprindă cu straiul nemțesc, descrierile lui J.W. Ozanne alcătuiesc una dintre puținele cărți dedicate de un străin României în secolul al XIX-lea și ne pun în fața ochilor un tablou întreg și precis desenat al țării și oamenilor dinaintea Războiului de Independență. „Bucureştiul este paradisul negustorilor. A cui e şareta cu blazon princiar pe uşile minunat lăcuite, cu vizitiu şi rândaş în livrele de fir? Ale cui sunt panaşele care se-apleacă într-o parte şi-ntr-alta, ai cui sunt aceşti bidivii impunători? Frumoasa domniţă şi cele două încântătoare însoţitoare gătite după ultima modă a Parisului a cui inimă o înseninează cu zâmbetele lor luminoase? Toate acestea sunt familia, caii şi lacheii negustorului a cărui prăvălie e împodobită cu o firmă nemurindu-l pe vestitul împărat Traian… Aşa cum am mai spus, toţi cei care aspiră la un rang nobiliar se folosesc de titlul de prinţ, şi e amuzant să vezi cum aceşti petits boyards şi negustori îi imită pe aristocraţi atunci când merg, la rândul lor, în străinătate. Într-o zi, la Viena, mi s-a relatat că un mare prinţ valah stătea în acelaşi hotel cu mine. Căutând să aflu mai multe, am descoperit că era vorba despre un cizmar bogat.“

Book Synopsis History and Myth in Romanian Consciousness by : Lucian Boia
Download or read book History and Myth in Romanian Consciousness written by Lucian Boia and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the idea that there is a considerable difference between reality and discourse, the author points out that history is constantly reconstructed, adapted and sometimes mythicized from the perspectives of the present day, present states of mind and ideologies. He closely examines historical culture and conscience in nineteenth and twentieth century Romania, particularly concentrating on the impact of the national ideology on history. Boia's innovative analysis identifies several key mythical configurations and shows how Romanians have reconstituted their own highly ideologized history over the last two centuries. The strength of History and Myth in Romanian Consciousness lies in the author's ability to fully deconstruct the entire Romanian historiographic system and demonstrate the increasing acuteness of national problems in general, and in particular the exploitation of history to support national ideology.
Book Synopsis The Great Divergence by : Kenneth Pomeranz
Download or read book The Great Divergence written by Kenneth Pomeranz and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark comparative history of Europe and China that examines why the Industrial Revolution emerged in the West The Great Divergence sheds light on one of the great questions of history: Why did sustained industrial growth begin in Northwest Europe? Historian Kenneth Pomeranz shows that as recently as 1750, life expectancy, consumption, and product and factor markets were comparable in Europe and East Asia. Moreover, key regions in China and Japan were no worse off ecologically than those in Western Europe, with each region facing corresponding shortages of land-intensive products. Pomeranz’s comparative lens reveals the two critical factors resulting in Europe's nineteenth-century divergence—the fortunate location of coal and access to trade with the New World. As East Asia’s economy stagnated, Europe narrowly escaped the same fate largely due to favorable resource stocks from underground and overseas. This Princeton Classics edition includes a preface from the author and makes a powerful historical work available to new readers.

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition by : Graham Speake
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition written by Graham Speake and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 1941 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hellenism is the living culture of the Greek-speaking peoples and has a continuing history of more than 3,500 years. The Encyclopedia of Greece and the HellenicTradition contains approximately 900 entries devoted to people, places, periods, events, and themes, examining every aspect of that culture from the Bronze Age to the present day. The focus throughout is on the Greeks themselves, and the continuities within their own cultural tradition. Language and religion are perhaps the most obvious vehicles of continuity; but there have been many others--law, taxation, gardens, music, magic, education, shipping, and countless other elements have all played their part in maintaining this unique culture. Today, Greek arts have blossomed again; Greece has taken its place in the European Union; Greeks control a substantial proportion of the world's merchant marine; and Greek communities in the United States, Australia, and South Africa have carried the Hellenic tradition throughout the world. This is the first reference work to embrace all aspects of that tradition in every period of its existence.

Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of the Crimean War by : Candan Badem
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of the Crimean War written by Candan Badem and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of the Crimean War is an edited collection of articles on the various aspects of the Crimean War written by distinguished historians from various countries. Part I focuses on diplomatic, military and regional perspectives. Part II includes contributions on social, cultural and international issues around the war. All contributions are based upon findings of the latest research. While not pretending to be an exhaustive encyclopaedia of this first modern war, the present volume captures the most important topics and the least researched areas in the historiography of the war. The book incorporates new approaches in national historiographies to the war and is intended to be the most up-to-date reference book on the subject. Chapters are devoted to each of the belligerent powers and to other peripheral states that were involved in one way or another in the war. The volume also gives more attention to the Ottoman Empire, which is generally neglected in European books on the war. Both the general public and students of history will find the book useful, balanced and up-to-date.
