Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winters in Algeria Nearly all the passengers were now on deck and prepared to go ashore, to avoid being awakened again at five o'clock in the morning by the unloading of cargo in the grip Of that demon, the jerky, cranky, dislocated machine known as the donkey-engine; so called in honor of the being who invented it. We landed in small boats, and paid according to a fixed tariff. Oh, delightful innovation! To be fully appreciated only by the sleepy traveller who has set foot on some Oriental shore, and has had his coat and collar torn Off by Arabs forty, we will say, to strike an average - trying to get posses sion of him and his baggage.

Download or read book Mountain Life in Algeria Classic Reprint written by Edgar Barclay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mountain Life in Algeria From the city of Algiers, looking eastwards across the bay, is seen a snow-covered mass towering above lower ranges of mountains. It is to the country lying immediately beneath those snow-clad peaks, inhabited by a people of entirely different race and speech to the Arabs, and known as Kabyles, that the following pages relate. Though Algiers has many English visitors, this district remains little known the reason perhaps being the want of those accommodations that tourists look for. A day spent at Fort National, which is at the threshold of the region I refer to, is usually considered ample, and exhausts their interest. But any one making a more prolonged stay in a country, is apt to look upon it in a different light to the passing traveller; and I may be pardoned for having taken up the pen, if I should succeed in inspiring the reader with some of the interest that I feel for this district and its native inhabitants.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Flora of Algeria Visitors naturally Wish to know the names ofthe principal forms of plant life and as no simple, illustrated work of the kind seems to have been published, I have arranged this series of photographs of tree foliage and owering shrubs which, aided by a few words of explanation, will enable them to be readily identified. This collection has no scientific pretensions, comprising as it does, merely the common trees, shrubs etc. To be seen in the course of a day's ramble. It was hardly possible to include many field owers because their name is legion and it seemed unnecessary to reproduce certain garden shrubs, such as the Poinsettia (large scarlet stars), the Plumbago (pale blue), the fragrant Jasmine, etc. Not to mention the numerous varieties of the genus Rose which blossom the winter through.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aicha the Mauresque: An Algerian Fantasy The Pilgrim's Rest is a cafe' which lies midway between the Ouled Nail country of the south and the port of El Hadj in the north, and from this port, even to-day, the true-believers embark for the Mecca. It was in the Pilgrim's Rest that we first spoke, and the time of our speaking was a short period prior to his departure on pilgrimage to the eternal Mecca. I saw him first in the Moorish baths which are built over the hot sulphur springs of the town. At certain times Of the day these baths are reserved for women, and the Mauresques, as they call the Arab women, go there with pots of lime cream - with which they remove um sightly hair from their bodies-and of kuhl, and of henna in fine powder, and of perfumes purchased in the Arab market. In the arched rooms they cleanse their bodies according to ritual and apply the primitive cos metics. They also grasp the opportunity to gossip. Finally, robed in white and modestly veiled, they patter into the sunlight, and they return to their homes so that their husbands may be refreshed by their beauty. At other times of the day the baths are reserved for men. They enter when the heat of the sirocco is ended, and become cleansed of dust and sweat. They also emerge in robes of white.

Download or read book A Frenchwoman s Imperial Story written by Rebecca Rogers and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugénie Luce was a French schoolteacher who fled her husband and abandoned her family, migrating to Algeria in the early 1830s. By the mid-1840s she had become a major figure in debates around educational policies, insisting that women were a critical dimension of the French effort to effect a fusion of the races. To aid this fusion, she founded the first French school for Muslim girls in Algiers in 1845, which thrived until authorities cut off her funding in 1861. At this point, she switched from teaching spelling, grammar, and sewing, to embroidery—an endeavor that attracted the attention of prominent British feminists and gave her school a celebrated reputation for generations. The portrait of this remarkable woman reveals the role of women and girls in the imperial projects of the time and sheds light on why they have disappeared from the historical record since then.
