While the historian delights us with profundity of reflection, the poet with the charms of numbers, the wit with brilliancy of imagination, and the novelist with interesting situations, the biographer, by an impartial dis play of the virtues and failings of our nature, arrests our undivided attention, and instruct: us how to imitate the one, and how to avoid the other. But great as may be the interest of.

This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Ali Pacha, of Janina, Vizier of Epirus, Surnamed Aslan, or the Lion: From Various Documents The great European celebrity acquired by the Vizier Ali, pacha of Janina, justly entitles that tyi'ant of classic ground to a biographical notice, in which the fidelity of history shall neither be disfigured by exaggeration nor compromised by falsehood. Tyranny is in itself sufficiently odious Without attempting to render its features still more disgusting by distortion. The faithful de scription of the life of a tyrant may even afford instructive lessons to those nations, who, living under mild and beneficent laws, are notwithstand ing infected with a mania for political revolutions; at least, it will be useful to shew them that Wicked characters and ungovernable passions are the natural consequences of tyranny.

Book Ali Pasha  Lion of Ioannina

Download or read book Ali Pasha Lion of Ioannina written by Quentin Russell and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2017-09-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the life of a petty tyrant in an obscure corner of the Ottoman Empire became the stuff of legend. What propelled this cold-blooded archetype of Oriental despotism, grandly known as the Lion of Yanina and the Balkan Napoleon, into the consciousness of Western rulers and the general public? This book charts the rise of Ali Pasha from brigand leader to a player in world affairs and, ultimately, to a gruesome end.Ali exploited the internal weakness of the Ottoman Empire to carve out his own de facto empire in Albania and Western Greece. Although a ruthless tyrant guilty of cruel atrocities, his lavish court became an attraction to Western travelers, most famously Lord Byron, and his military prowess led Britain, Russia and France to seek his alliance during the Napoleonic Wars. His activities undermined the Sultans authority and ultimately led to the Greek War of Independence.Quentin and Eugenia Russell describe his remarkable life and military career as well as the legacy he bequeathed in his homeland as a nationalist hero and further afield as inspiration for writers and artists of the Romantic movement.

Book Bibliography of Forbidden Books

Download or read book Bibliography of Forbidden Books written by Henry Spencer Ashbee and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first volume of the 1877 work that established him as England's leading authority on pornography, Henry Spencer Ashbee describes scores of "curious, uncommon and erotic books" that were banned or otherwise prohibited from legitimate sale during the Victorian era... and some even until the 1960s. Included in this far-reaching volume are such "gentlemen only" titles as Exhibition of Female Flagellants, The Battles of Venus, and A Cabinet of Amorous Curiosities. This catalog of mostly forgotten works is an invaluable-and highly entertaining-resource for bibliophiles, students of erotica, and collectors of Victoriana. British book collector, travel writer, and bibliographer HENRY SPENCER ASHBEE (1834-1900), aka Pisanus Fraxi, is thought by some to have authored the notorious Victorian sexual memoir My Secret Life.

Download or read book Rebels Believers Survivors written by Noel Malcolm and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-10 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to its half-century under Communism, as well as its little-known language, Albania has suffered from neglect and a sense of isolation. Yet, as this study helps to show, the Albanian lands have a long history of interaction with others. They have been a meeting-ground of Christianity and Islam; a channel through which Venice connected with the Ottoman Balkans; a place of interest to the Habsburgs; and a focus for the ambitions of neighbouring powers in the late Ottoman period. Albanians themselves could have many different identities. The studies in this volume, by one of the world's leading experts on Albanian history, range from the fifteenth century to the twentieth, taking in politics, social history, religion and diplomacy. Each is based on original research; the longest, on Ali Pasha, uses a wealth of manuscript material to tell, for the first time, the full story of the vital role he played in the international politics of the Napoleonic Wars. Other studies bring to life ordinary individuals hitherto unknown to history: women hauled before the Inquisition, for example, or the author of the first Albanian autobiography. Some of these studies have been printed before (several in hard-to-find publications, and one only in Albanian), but the greater part of this book appears here for the first time. This is not only a landmark publication for readers interested in south-east European history. It also engages with many broader issues, including religious conversion, 'crypto-Christianity' among Muslims, methods of enslavement within the Ottoman Empire, and the nature of modern myth-making about national identity.
