Download or read book Old Morocco Classic Reprint written by E. Andrews and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Morocco What I love is a minaret, a mosque in the blue moonlight, a white-domed saint's tomb sleeping in the sun, an old fountain beautiful with broken bits of faience, and beside it a Moslem girl muffled in a white veil, except for her dark, deep eyes, filled with the wonder of life and the sadness of the world. I love to dream over the rich colours in old carpets woven with the mysterious symbols of strange human hearts, or to finger bizarre jewels that have glistened in the hair of some once lovely slave. I like to remember the glorious thrill of my first glimpse of Asia, drowned in a dawn of rose and gold, framed in the port-hole of a Roumanian steamer; or the forests of masts against the sunset in the Golden Horn, and the wild procession of strange humanity always thronging over the Galata Bridge; or the jangle of bargaining tongues in five languages in the Jitni Pazar of Monastir. I love the fascination of the old east, its music and its sorceries and its dreams, its dim memories of races that have gone, its peoples that have grown old in living and have become a little tired.

Download or read book Morocco the Piquant written by George Edmund Holt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Morocco the Piquant: Or Life in Sunset Land Follow the red lines representing the routes of the transatlantic liners plying between New York and Gibraltar, move your pencil an eighth of an inch due south from "The Rock," and it will rest upon a tiny black dot marked "Tangier." The Orient has many so-called gateways, and of these Tangier is the nearest to the Occident. One may enter through others - Algiers, Tripoli, Tunis, Cairo - but nowhere will one find a truer East than that offered by Morocco. During the two hours occupied in crossing from Gibraltar to Tangier, one passes from the twentieth century to the tenth, from West to East, from present to past. There is, as Pierre Loti says, "a white shroud which comes over one, stopping all the stress of modern life: the ancient shroud of Islam." We are in a new world, a new humanity. One plunges blindly into the midst of a civilization which has not changed perceptibly since the days of Moses.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Into Morocco What I have to say requires a few words of preface, for which I may be pardoned, as it is my first offence in that line. I wish to say a few words of warning to the large number of people for whom my book was not written. No one need expect to find in it dissertations on the political condition of Morocco, on its future, or on what is to be done to bring it into harmony with the modern movement; in the first place, these considerations have no interest for me, and then, what is more important, my reflections, to what small extent they have been carried, are directly opposed to common sense. Circumstances gave me a close insight into the government of the country, and its court and harems, but I have been careful not to make my reflections public (while approving of everything in my inner consciousness), for fear of the brawlings that might arise among the witless.

Download or read book Journey to Morocco written by George Beauclerk and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journey to Morocco: In 1826 My Dear Brother Officers, Permit me from feelings of personal attachment to you, and of pride at having been bred a soldier beneath the colours of so pre-eminently distinguished a corps as the Royal Welch Fusiliers, to dedicate to your friendly patronage the following pages. Convinced as I feel, of the reciprocity of our attachment, I shall, without awaiting your consent, present you with the first-born of my pen, though I do not require you, in your situation as godfathers, to be answerable for its errors, until its merits or demerits are confirmed by the public, or until it has arrived at years of discretion, and is fit to go alone; an indefinitude of age both in books and men, which would prove very detrimental to the peace of patrons and godfathers. As a soldier and a friend, I am, at all events, more likely to find favour in the eyes of my profession, as I trust your partiality will grant me many indulgencies, which I can hardly hope for from a more severe tribunal. But let my sentence in the court of criticism be what it may, it will be ample compensation for the pains of writing my journal to find that I have succeeded in pleasing you, though but a slight return for the many acts of kindness for which I must ever remain your insolvent, but truly attached and grateful debtor.

Download or read book In Morocco written by Edith Wharton and published by . This book was released on 2024-05-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Morocco" by Edith Wharton is a captivating travelogue that immerses readers in the vibrant culture, rich history, and stunning landscapes of early 20th-century Morocco. Through Wharton's eloquent prose and keen observational eye, the book offers a vivid and enchanting portrait of a land steeped in tradition and mystery. At its core, "In Morocco" is a journey of discovery and wonder. Wharton, already an established novelist and short story writer, ventures into the heart of North Africa, bringing her literary finesse to the realm of travel writing. Her detailed descriptions and insightful reflections capture the essence of Moroccan life, from the bustling souks of Marrakech to the serene courtyards of ancient palaces. Throughout the book, Wharton explores the interplay between Morocco's historical legacy and its contemporary culture. She delves into the country's architectural marvels, such as the grand mosques and intricate riads, as well as its social customs and daily life. Her encounters with local people and her experiences navigating the intricate social and political landscape of the region provide a rich, nuanced perspective on Moroccan society. "In Morocco" also highlights Wharton's fascination with the contrasts and contradictions of the country. She marvels at the coexistence of modernity and tradition, the blend of Arab, Berber, and French influences, and the dynamic interplay between the past and the present. Her writing is imbued with a sense of respect and admiration for the Moroccan people and their resilience in preserving their cultural heritage amidst the pressures of colonialism and modernization. More than just a travel memoir, "In Morocco" is a love letter to a land that captivated Wharton's imagination. Her evocative language and vivid imagery transport readers to the enchanting landscapes of the Moroccan desert, the lush oases, and the majestic Atlas Mountains. As readers journey alongside Wharton, they are invited to experience the sights, sounds, and scents of Morocco, and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this remarkable country. "In Morocco" stands as a testament to Edith Wharton's versatility as a writer and her ability to bring distant worlds to life with her words. It remains a timeless and evocative exploration of a country that continues to fascinate and inspire travelers from around the world.
