Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1908, The Shores of the Adriatic, the Austrian Side is a companion book to The Shores of the Adriatic, the Italian Side. Written by British painter and author FREDERICK HAMILTON JACKSON (1848-1923), this is a scholarly work, dealing with the geography of Eastern Europe surrounding the Adriatic Sea and the customs of the people found there. Given the unique cultures found in the region, much of the book focuses on the people, their dress, their style of architecture, and their art. Jackson also spends a good deal of time delving into the history of each region he comes across, including Croatia, Dalmatia, Istria, and Slovenia. This comprehensive book will delight readers of history and sociology.

Download or read book The Habsburg Garrison Complex in Trebinje written by Cathie Carmichael and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-20 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the imposition of Habsburg rule on Ottoman Bosnia in 1878, a new garrison was constructed in the old citadel of Trebinje. By using a micro-historical approach, this innovative book tells the story of the garrison in times of peace and war, describing the way in which the Austro-Hungarian administration rapidly transformed Trebinje into a tree-lined city dominated by the army. Yet, the Habsburg "civilizing mission," marked by the building of hospitals, schools, roads, and railways was accompanied by ruthless violence against those who resisted the new foreign occupiers, especially after 1914. The tragic violence is described in the book alongside accounts of daily life. By personalizing historical events, the narrative reveals the perspective of people who found themselves in Trebinje and its garrison complex: the ordinary soldier, the condemned “insurgent,” the career officer, the cook, the shepherdess, the hotelier, or the journalist—all willing or unwilling participants in an extra-European style colonial project in the heart of Europe.

Hamilton (Frederick Hamilton) Jackson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACEThis volume is complementary to that dealing with the Italian side of the Adriatic, and follows much the same lines. It has not been thought necessary to repeat what appeared there about the sea itself, but some further details on the subject have been added in an introductory chapter. The concluding chapter treats of the influence which the two coasts exerted on each other, and contains some hints as to certain arch�ological problems of great interest, which deserve fuller and more individual treatment than they can receive in such a work as the present.In a country which still contains so much that is unfamiliar, so many medi�val survivals in customs and costume, and so much that is fine in scenery, architecture, and the decorative arts, the picturesque aspect of the country has been dwelt upon more than was the case in dealing with the Italian side, and the meticulous description of buildings has to a great extent been abandoned, except in cases where it was necessary for the full understanding of the deductions drawn from existing details. At the same time, matters of arch�ology have not been neglected, and the rich remains of medi�val goldsmiths' work have received special attention. The costume, the customs, and the folk-lore of the Morlacchi are also treated of in considerable detail.The determination of the Croat majority to stamp out the Italian language by insisting upon instruction in the schools being given solely in Croat will, in the course of a generation, make Italian a foreign language understood by few; and it seems wise for those who desire to visit Dalmatia to do so soon, while it is still understood and before Italian culture is forgotten.The present work does not pretend to in any way rival Mr. T.G. Jackson's classic volumes on the architecture of the country, in completeness of historical treatment or architectural detail. Though Sir Gardner Wilkinson had published a book on the country, and the brothers Adam's full description of Diocletian's Palace was well known to connoisseurs, he may be said to have practically discovered Dalmatia for the Englishman; and it is a proof of the excellence of his work that, though twenty years have elapsed since it was published, it has never been surpassed, and its value remains undiminished. To these volumes the author desires to acknowledge his indebtedness, as well as to the "Mittheilungen" of the Austrian Central Commission for the Conservation of Historical Monuments; the "Bullettino di Storia Dalmata," conducted by Mgr. Buli�++ at Spalato; the "Atti" of the Istrian "Societ� di Archeologia e Storia Patria," published at Parenzo; and the "Archeografo Triestino," published at Trieste, all chronicling discoveries as they were made, and containing articles giving interesting and reliable information upon the history and antiquities of the coast. In addition, the following works have been consulted:
