At the height of its empire, the Assyrian king ruled over the Egyptians, the Persians, and the Babylonians.

Download or read book Year of the Sword written by Joseph Yacoub and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Armenian genocide of 1915 has been well documented. Much less known is the Turkish genocide of the Assyrian, Chaldean and Syriac peoples, which occurred simultaneously in their ancient homelands in and around ancient Mesopotamia - now Turkey, Iran and Iraq. The advent of the First World War gave the Young Turks and the Ottoman government the opportunity to exterminate the Assyrians in a series of massacres and atrocities inflicted on a people whose culture dates back millennia and whose language, Aramaic, was spoken by Jesus. Systematic killings, looting, rape, kidnapping and deportations destroyed countless communities and created a vast refugee diaspora. As many as 300,000 Assyro-Chaldean- Syriac people were murdered and a larger number forced into exile. The "Year of the Sword" (Seyfo) in 1915 was preceded over millennia by other attacks on the Assyrians and has been mirrored by recent events, not least the abuses committed by Islamic State. Joseph Yacoub, whose family was murdered and dispersed, has gathered together a compelling range of eye-witness accounts and reports which cast light on this 'hidden genocide.' Passionate and yet authoritative in its research, his book reveals a little-known human and cultural tragedy. A century after the Assyrian genocide, the fate of this Christian minority hangs in the balance.
Download or read book The Modern Assyrians of the Middle East written by John Joseph and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a revised edition of the author's The Nestorians and Their Muslim Neighbors (Princeton University Press, 1961). Early in the nineteenth century, the Aramaic-speaking "Nestorian" Christians received special attention when American Protestant missions decided to educate and reform them to help meet the challenge that Islam presented to the growing missionary movements. When archaeologist Layard further publicized the historic minority as "Assyrians", the name acquired a new connotation when other forces at work in the region - religious, nationalistic, imperialistic - entangled these modern Assyrians in vagaries and manipulations in which they were outnumbered and outclassed. The study examines Western Christendom's current position on Islam, with emphasis on the Roman Catholic Church and the World Council of Churches. The revision draws on a wide variety of sources not used in the original.

Download or read book Assyrians written by Frederick A. Aprim and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2004 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Assyrians have been deprived of their rich heritage in their ancestral homelands in Mesopotamis (modern Iraq). From one side, history curriculum taught in most of the Middle East's public schools is manipulated and it focuses predominately on the region's Islamic era.... From the other side, some historians question the continuation of ancient Assyrian civilization and people.... Thus, unbiased publications and historical references regarding the survival of Assyrians since the fall of their imperial capital Nineveh are of great importance. This moderate work is a humble attempt to shed light on this survival" -- from cover.
