Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the tensions underlying British imperialism in Cyprus. Much has been written about the British Empire’s construction outside Europe, yet there is little on the same themes in Britain’s tiny empire in ‘Europe’. This study follows Cyprus’ progress from a perceived imperial asset to an expendable backwater by explaining how the Union Jack came to fly over the island and why after thirty-five years the British wanted it lowered. Cyprus’ importance was always more imagined than real and was enmeshed within widely held cultural signifiers and myths. British Imperialism in Cyprus fills a gap in the existing literature on the early British period in Cyprus and challenges the received and monolithic view that British imperial policy was based primarily or exclusively on strategic-military considerations. The combination of archival research, cultural analysis and visual narrative that makes for an enjoyable read for academics and students of Imperial, British and European history.
Download or read book Imperial Control in Cyprus written by Antigone Heraclidou and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Protectorate Cyprus, education was one of the most effective tools of imperial control and political manipulation used by the British. This book charts the cultural and educational aspects of British colonial rule in Cyprus and analyses what these policies reveal about the internal struggles on the island between 1931 and 1960. Cyprus had been under British occupation since 1878, but it was in the 1930s that educational policies acquired a strong political significance and became essential in preserving the British position on the island. The co-existence of two very strongly-held and eventually conflicting national identities in Cyprus, Greek-Orthodox and Turkish Muslim, inevitably led to the politicisation of education and culture on the island. Therefore, any attempts to impose British culture, language and way of thinking onto Cypriots, or even to create a distinct Cypriot identity, had very limited success. Gradually, the education system reflected the shifting political developments in colonial Cyprus. By the start of the 1950s, schools had become a breeding ground for discontent and between 1955 and 1959 they were an indispensable part of the EOKA revolt. In this book, Antigone Heraclidou provides a new dimension to the understanding and origins of the deadlock that was to prove one of the most intractable in the final years of the British Empire.
Download or read book British Imperialism and Turkish Nationalism in Cyprus 1923 1939 written by Ilia Xypolia and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Cyprus experienced British imperial rule between 1878 and 1960, Greek and Turkish nationalism on the island developed at different times and at different speeds. Relations between Turkish Cypriots and the British on the one hand, and Greek Cypriots and the British on the other, were often asymmetrical with the Muslim community undergoing an enormous change in terms of national/ethnic identity and class characteristics. Turkish Cypriot nationalism developed belatedly as a militant nationalist and anti-Enosis movement. This book explores the relationship between the emergence of Turkish national identity and British colonial rule in the 1920s and 1930s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cyprus Under British Rule Not many years ago a newly appointed High Commissioner of Cyprus was received by the Secretary of State for the Colonies before leaving England to take up his duties. "There are in Cyprus I believe," said the Secretary of State, "a number of interesting and valuable antiquities. I trust that you will see that they are adequately preserved and cared for. I wish you a successful tour of office. Good-bye." It is in the hope that the interest in Cyprus taken by the general public may be somewhat less limited than that displayed by the responsible minister in the incident just recorded that I have written this book. My self-imposed task has been to describe only the somewhat dull and unromantic details of administration, and readers who desire to learn something of the interesting and valuable antiquities, or of the scenery of this beautiful island or the manners and customs of its inhabitants, must look elsewhere. For information about the antiquities, the delightful pages of Cesnola's monumental work should be consulted, and some idea of the romantic charm of the island and its beautiful scenery may be gleaned from Mr. Mallock's well-known book, An Enchanted Island. A veritable mine of information is contained in Messrs. Lukach and Jardine's Handbook of Cyprus, which discourses charmingly on all subjects, from the ancient history, geological formation, and ornithology of the island to the price of eggs, hotel charges, and the prevalence of fleas. In addition to such sources of information, a report is issued annually and presented to both Houses of Parliament, containing much useful information regarding the finance, trade, and general progress of the island. I know of no publication however which gives a connected account of British administration in Cyprus, or describes the conditions under which we have occupied it since 1878 and continue to hold it.

Download or read book Britain and the Revolt in Cyprus 1954 1959 written by Robert Holland and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1998-11-26 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first in-depth reconstruction of a major British decolonization based fully on original documentation. Charting the `inner history' of a violent colonial Emergency, it provides a case-study of the dilemmas posed by the challenge of terrorism overseas after 1945. Robert Holland analyses the evolution of a political settlement which, almost uniquely in the British `end of empire', slid beyond the United Kingdom's control. He considers the effects of the revolt on the politics of the surrounding region, particularly in relation to the emerging ethnic struggle between Greeks and Turks. His work offers a fresh perspective on Mediterranean and Middle Eastern developments, including the involvement of NATO and the United States, in the age of the Suez Crisis and its aftermath. This account is essential reading for anybody interested in the liquidation of the British Empire, the breakdown of ethnic co-existence under intense pressure, and the effects of regional destabilization on the wider international system.
Download or read book Cyprus in the 1930s written by Alexis Rappas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has the unification of Cyprus proved impossible? The existing literature looks to the 1950s, and the formation of EOKA under George Grivas. Here, Alexis Rappas challenges the dominance of that starting point in the current histories of the island, showing that the key to the conflict between the British Empire and Greek Cypriots lies in the disputes of the 1930s. Cyprus in the 1930s charts the history of the island in this period, and details British attempts to impose a homogeneous 'Cypriot' culture onto a diverse and divided population. Community leaders and the hierarchy of the Church, who had functioned as bridges between local interests, were marginalised as Britain attempted to engineer unification through education and social policy. The result was a radicalisation of both Turkish-Cypriot and Greek-Cypriot identity. Based on new primary source material from Britain, Cyprus and Greece. Rappas analyses British state-building and the role of Cypriot ethnicities in the formation of modern Cyprus.
