Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Koordistan, Mesopotamia, &C, Vol. 2 of 2: Including an Account of Parts of Those Countries Hitherto Unvisited by Europeans; With Sketches of the Character and Manner of the Koordish and Arab Tribes Of which still remain, and are Of a very considerable height. The two cities of Ctesiphon (or ul-madain), and Seleucia, were built on each side of the river, and opposite each other, though flourishing at different periods. Of the latter, the only remains are the mounds of a great wall which, in fact, embraced both banks, and which inclosed an immense space of ground, over which are scattered abundance of other mounds Of various dimensions; but all alike bearing testimony to having been once the abodes of man, in the fragments of brick, pottery, broken glass, and other such relics, with which they are thickly strewed. By the mere passing traveller, who can not afi'ord time to wander over and examine such ruins with the science and patient perseverance of an antiquary, little is to be gained from inspecting them, beyond the power of having to say that he has seen them, and has actually been on such and such a site, with the feelings which such vestiges of um doubted antiquity may give rise to - yet assuredly this is something, and something, too, worth toil ing for.

Download or read book The Western Christian Presence in the Russias and Q j r Persia c 1760 c 1870 written by Thomas O'Flynn and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 1141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of The 2018 Saidi-Sirjani Book Award In The Western Christian Presence in the Russias and Qājār Persia, c.1760–c.1870, Thomas O'Flynn vividly paints the life and times of missionary enterprises in early nineteenth-century Russia and Persia at a moment of immense change when Tsarist Russia embarked on an expansionist campaign reaching to the Caucasus. Simultaneously he charts the relationship between the new Persian dynasty of the Qājārs and missionary activity on the part of European and American missionaries. This book reconstructs that world from a predominantly religious perspective. It recounts the sustaining ideals as well as the everyday struggles of the western missionaries, Protestant (Scottish, Basel and American Congregationalist) and Catholic (Jesuit and Vincentian). It looks at the reactions of diverse tribal peoples, the Tatars of the North Caucasus, the Kabardians and Circassians. Persia was the ultimate goal of these missionaries, which they eventually reached in the 1820s. Altogether this study throws light on the troubled course of history in West Asia and provides the background to politico-religious conflicts in Chechnya and Persia that persist to the present day.
