Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pawns of Liberty: A Story of Fighting Yesterdays in the Balkans A good story should require no preface, and yet a word of explanation may add to the interest of the reader's acquaintance with the lives and characters revealed below. While the writers do not pose as the chroni clers of a true story, they are not narrating the imaginary troubles Of an imagined folk some where southeast Of Vienna. Pawns of Liberty has Macedonia-of - yesterday for its setting, but a good deal of its inspiration comes from the actual history of Bulgaria-of - the-day - before. The Bal kan War, and the revolts of the Bulgar natives in Macedonia which preceded it, only continued the Bulgarian struggle for liberation which made the sixties and seventies of thealast century years of tragic glory in the Balkans. The children of the Bulgarian '76 became the leaders of the Mace donian revolts during the past two decades. For Macedonia and Thrace are inhabited largely by Bulgars, and the revolution was naturally a Bul garian movement.

Download or read book Troubles in the Balkans Classic Reprint written by John L. C. Booth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Troubles in the Balkans The Bulgarians five hundred years ago were a great nation. When the Turks swept up into Europe from the Mediterranean and conquered them they were put under the Greek Church for their religious discipline and educa tion, and the influence of the Churchman in the life of Eastern countries is immense. So that by degrees the Bulgarian institutions, literature and everything that made them a nation, vanished. Their very name dropped out of use, and as a people they were abolished. Not till the middle of last century did they make any effort to throw off the Greek Patriarchate yoke and re establish their' own ancient Church. About forty years of petitioning led at last to the Sultan granting the ap pointment of an Exarch by Firman in 1870, and under this Exarch the new Bulgarian Church was established. The people, having got their name back, now began to feel their feet a little, and ventured to kick back at the Turks who had been kicking them for five centuries. The immediate result of this temerity was the descent of troops on the disturbed districts and the massacres of 1876, in which about twenty-five thousand Bulgarians men, women, and children - were done to death. This was a little too much for Europe, and the Powers pro tested. The Sublime Porte, however, refused to listen to them, which so incensed Russia that she declared war. Having thrashed the Turks, she gave them their orders in the treaty of San Stefano (march, by which the Bulgarians were to possess and enjoy practically the whole of Macedonia, with a port on the Mediterranean, and their present Principality.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heart of the Balkans Albania was coveted by Austria and Italy, both members of the Triple Alliance, and to balk their desires, France and Eng land meant to preserve the integrity of the Ottoman Empire, no matter how much blood soaked the soil of Albania, or any other part of the Balkans. The political situation in the Balkans had been the milk, so to speak, on which I had been nourished, and I had had a little too much of it. Know ing already what the practical results of our investigations would be, what interested me personally was the women of Albania; and since, after leaving Albania, we should cross the entire length and breadth of the Balkans, I was to have an opportunity to study the women of Montenegro, Servia.

Download or read book Fortunes of War The Balkan Trilogy written by Olivia Manning and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 946 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Wall Street Journal’s “Five Best of World War II Fiction” A BBC miniseries starring Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh A spellbinding chronicle of a marriage and a panoramic account of Eastern Europe during WWII—the “finest fictional record of the war produced by a British writer” (Anthony Burgess) The Balkan Trilogy is the story of a marriage and of a war, a vast, teeming, and complex masterpiece in which Olivia Manning brings the uncertainty and adventure of civilian existence under political and military siege to vibrant life. Manning’s focus is not the battlefield but the café and kitchen, the bedroom and street, the fabric of the everyday world that has been irrevocably changed by war, yet remains unchanged. At the heart of the trilogy are newlyweds Guy and Harriet Pringle, who arrive in Bucharest—the so-called Paris of the East—in the fall of 1939, just weeks after the German invasion of Poland. Guy, an Englishman teaching at the university, is as wantonly gregarious as his wife is introverted, and Harriet is shocked to discover that she must share her adored husband with a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. Other surprises follow: Romania joins the Axis, and before long German soldiers overrun the capital. The Pringles flee south to Greece, part of a group of refugees made up of White Russians, journalists, con artists, and dignitaries. In Athens, however, the couple will face a new challenge of their own, as great in its way as the still-expanding theater of war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russia, the Balkans and the Dardanelles What is here written about Poland I pray may stir the chord of sympathy in my reader for that saddened nation. In Belgium I thought I had seen a people draining the very dregs of the cup of misery. I could not conceive a more bitter potion. But the torment of Belgium does not surpass the torture of Poland. Here is a nation suffering the pangs of crucifixion. The Fates pause before writing the destiny of the Balkans. May these peoples receive the light.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Balkans, Italy and the Adriatic The discords of warring Europe postponed the drastic changes which towards the close of the century seemed on the point of overwhelming the Turkish dominions but though in 1800 Turkey was territorially hardly in a worse position than 100 years previously (having lost Bukovina and Crimea, but regained Northern Serbia), the whole fabric was already rotten to its core, and quite incapable of resisting the repeated storms which were to assail it in the succeeding cen tury. Since 1800 all has been different, and more drastic changes have taken place - almost all for the better - than in the preceding fifteen centuries.
