Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Shadow of the Pagoda: Sketches of Burmese Life and Character I lay no claim to the title of sportsman, but I have in cluded in this book two tiger stories. That they differ in the essential feature from those generally published is my only excuse for adding to the long list of these. The illustrations are from photographs by Mr. P. Klier and by Messrs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from With the Jungle Folk: A Sketch of Burmese Village Life A former book on Burma was so kindly received that my indulgent critics must be held responsible for the appearance of this commonplace story of Burmese village life. Imagination has little part in it, save in the dacoit chapters. If I have made mistakes in these passages, correction by any one having dacoit experience will be gratefully received. I have no desire to "inform," but wish still less to misinform. For many useful hints and suggestions I have to thank Moung Gyee, son of Moung Kheen, and Pho Thin. I beg indulgence for my artist, who, as a "son of the town," is at a disadvantage in portraying jungle scenes. By the advice of my publishers, the majority of the pictures have been reproduced exactly as drawn, in order to preserve their character.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Burma and Its People: Being Sketches of Native Manners, Customs, and Religion The first intention of the writer was to endeavour in some degree to supply the want above alluded to, but in a form suitable only to the pages of a scientific journal, such as that of the Asiatic Society; but, since his return to Europe, he has been so much struck with the fact that while Burma, and the Chinese trade route through Burma, are often mentioned, the English public, even the educated and reading class, have as a rule the faintest possible idea of the country, or of the people.

Download or read book A Burmese Enchantment Classic Reprint written by Captain M. Enriquez and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Burmese Enchantment It is hardly too much to say that Burma is still an unexplored country. The best of us stand here only upon the very brink of a new and wonderful world. We know just enough about Burma, its philosophy, history, archaeology, flora, fauna, and language, to realize the true extent of our ignorance. Behind a quaint expression, or beneath a single word, there may be - and often is - the accumulated experience of centuries. The ideas which a people hold to-day are the inheritance of all their past generations. We ourselves have been brought up to hold views widely differing from those of the Burmese. So we may not easily comprehend the true inwardness that springs from Burmese and Buddhist philosophy. That is why we still stand only upon the brink of a new world - and, let it be noted, the most trivial daily incidents often spring from the deepest sources of the past. Perhaps the reader himself has already fallen under the spell of a Burmese enchantment. If so, he will understand me all the better. The Burmese are a friendly, lovable people, rich in the milk of human kindness, and endowed with rare grace and good taste, both in inward and in outward things.

This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Burmese Books in the British Museum In one important respect I have deviated in transliteration from the modern pro nunciation. When two words are closely connected, and the first ends in a vowel or nasal and the second begins with a hard (unvoiced) consonant, such as is the case in cogs, the actual pronunciation is ad dam, not ad tam; but I have usually in such cases preserved the bard consonant in transliteration, following the principle that each monosyllable should be rendered independently of its context. On the other hand, in one or two cases where the pronunciation differs widely and irregularly from the written word, i have followed the former, notably in the case of Ufcpz, which strictly should be rendered as [abuzz/dz, but is here given in the more readily recognizable form Names of towns and villages, wherever possible, are presented without diacritical marks, in the shape given by popular pronunciation and in the spelling prescribed by the official Tables of Transliteration, except where they form part of the titles of books; and the common terms (dc?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among Pagodas and Fair Ladies: An Account of a Tour Through Burma The author of these bright sketches succeeds in rendering her subjects attractive even to those who are already familiar with them; and this is a kind of success which is not often attained. She came to Burma on a visit, and fell in love with the country and people at first sight. This accounts for the freshness and warmth of her colouring and her artist sympathy with the little things that concern the people. She has caught their quaint picturesque ways and pourtrayed them with fidelity. Text and pictures are true to life. I have enjoyed the little book, and so will all those who read it.
