Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review, Vol. 142: Or Critical Journal: July, 1875; ...October, 1875; To Be Continued Quarterly Thus the society that gathered within the gates of Rome and wandered about her monuments was as mixed as it was choice and exotic - comprehending the rarer spirits from all parts of the world men of learning and men of taste - students of history, antiquity, archaeology, and the fine arts - painters and sculptors from every country in Europe - fine ladies to give entertainments, and English milords to lavish patronage - all equally necessary to each other and to Rome. But the artists were especially her natural subjects; they more than any other class combined the charm of a Roman residence with the one great condition of mortal life and human happiness work; and that condition never so lightly fulfilled as under the magical glow of a Roman sun. If the doom of Rome, as regards the purely artist life, has in some measure gone forth with her late increased political importance, and no less in creased order, cleanliness, bustle, and dearness of living, what shall replace her? N 0 one can compute the value of such neutral ground as she has afforded to the busy and ambitious nations of the earth- ground where all the surplus sentiment of the human breast could freely expatiate, and where, in one sense, those weary of the contention and commonplace of the work-a day world could be at rest.

Download or read book London and the Invention of the Middle East written by Roger Adelson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first quarter of the twentieth century, the British Government, the banks, and leading individuals in London reached historic decisions that determined the name, shape, nature, and future of the region known as the Middle East. In this fascinating and readable book, Roger Adelson examines who made policy, on what grounds, with what information, and with what results. The setting for the narrative is London, then the world's greatest metropolis and its financial and political center. Adelson evokes the atmosphere of Whitehall, Fleet Street, the City of London, and Westminster, and paints a vivid portrait of the individuals (Churchill, Lloyd George, Curzon, Cromer, and others) who established the international agenda. Using an extensive range of public and private archives, he identifies issues of money, power, and territorial ambition at the heart of policy, and he describes decisions made in ignorance of and often wholly without reference to local interests. The book explores and explains British diplomacy both before and after the 1914-1918 War: the protection of the Suez Canal and Persian Gulf; the fear of a German drive to the East and subjugation of the Turks; the discovery of oil; the post-war suppression of nationalist aspirations and the establishment of collaborative regimes more in tune with London than with the Middle East itself. More clearly than any previous work, it identifies the virtual invention of the modern Middle East and the roots of the ethnic and nationalist antagonisms that characterize the region today.
